Vetus Flexible Engine Mount – Type HY (Max Load 100-230kg)

Vetus Flexible Engine Mount – HY Type -For Heavy-Weight Engines with 4 or more Cylinders.This type is extremely suitable for application with marine diesel engines in the power range between 30 and 125 kW (40-170 hp), by virtue of a low stiffness combined with high stiffness in the longitudinal direction.Stiffness Ratio:Vertical: 1Athwart Ships: 1.2Fore & Aft: 3.5Part NumberMax.

When more powerful engines are installed, it is important to use the following formula to define the load per support in kilograms (4 supporting points).engine weight in kg+kW x 487 x reduction of gearbox=max. load per support in kgnumber of supportsengine revs/min. x centre to centre spacing in metres of the longitudinal engine bearers
