Propeller Shaft Earthing System

Protection for propellers and shaft bearings

Reliable grounding for marine propulsion systems

Propellers and propeller shaft bearings on marine vessels are vulnerable to pitting and spark erosion caused by voltage potential differences between the shaft and the ship’s hull. Althen propeller shaft earthing system protects the propeller and bearings by grounding the propeller shaft to the hull.

This helps prevent premature maintenance costs and supports reliable operation of the propulsion system.
