Electric Steerable POD Motor RIM Drive 2.5
The Steerable POD, a pinnacle of innovation with a maximum input power of 2.5kW and a 24V nominal voltage, ensuring optimal efficiency surpassing 90%. Experience unparalleled acceleration compared to conventional alternatives, coupled with zero-turn steering. The steerable POD is rotatable up to 320 degrees with 160 degrees both ways for ultimate manoeuvrability. All combined in a lightweight compact design.
Enjoy diverse control options with joystick, steering wheel, or CAN control. Adding to its resilience, all our POD motors are fully waterproof with an IP68 rating, achieved by completely casting the motor not by using sealings. The design also minimizes risk of damage to the propeller, perfect performance in any environment
Mounting plates and sealing for our steerable POD motor are available in stainless steel (RVS) and fiberglass (GFK). In addition, an ECU is available. All drawings can be downloaded below in the ‘Downloads’ section.

Advantages of the Rim Drive System
Maintenance-Free: Features only one rotating component, thereby minimizing the risk of wear or mechanical failure.
Maximum Safety: The enclosed rim design minimizes the risk of the propeller becoming entangled in marine debris or harming aquatic life.
Flexible Control: Compatible with joystick controls, conventional steering wheels, and digital system integration via CAN interface.
The 2.5 kW Rim Drive Electric Steering Pod Motor is an innovative marine propulsion system utilizing Rim Drive technology. Unlike conventional motors, it features a hubless (rim-driven) design in which the propeller is driven directly from the motor’s outer ring (rim).
