- Smooth Operation: Precision roller bearings ensure smooth power transfer.
- Precision Control: RPM and rotation direction can be varied for precise lift force control.
- Efficiency: Offers exceptional hydrodynamic efficiency when properly sized.
- Safety: Equipped with an automatic retract mechanism and designed to preserve hull integrity in case of severe impact.
Warranty and Support:
- Covered by a 1-year comprehensive warranty.
- Service and technical support available worldwide.
Design and Performance:
- The ML200 Series hull unit utilizes the Magnus Effect for maximum energy transfer and is designed for demanding military and commercial applications.
- Mounted in the turn of the bilge, the rotor is oriented perpendicular to the hull during operations and stows parallel when not in use to minimize drag.
- The rotor's orientation and spin functions are managed by Quantum’s hydraulic and electrical control systems.
- Offers significant roll reduction at loitering speeds.
Comparison with Fin Stabilizers:
- Rotors can be placed in a larger longitudinal region on the hull compared to fins, which are restricted to the mid-third of the hull length.
- Rotors do not influence steering if placed too far aft and are not affected by pitching forces if placed too far forward.
- At lower speeds, rotors are deployed for maximum lift, and as speed increases, they swing aft to reduce drag without significantly reducing power.
Graphical Data:
- The graph compares the lift force of a ML200 rotor with an equivalent fin, showing performance at loitering speeds and higher speeds with the rotor swept back 30 degrees.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION DOCUMENT ML200‐AS ROTOR STABILIZER HULL UNIT DESCRIPTION: The ML200 Series hull unit is designed to provide maximum energy transfer in terms of lift force based on the Magnus Effect. The unit is a compact rugged design built to withstand the most demanding military and commercial applications. For maximum roll reduction, the ML200 is mounted in the turn of the bilge with the rotor oriented perpendicular to the vessel hull during underway operations. Rotor spin direction and speed are altered during operation, as needed, to obtain optimal performance. To minimize appendage drag, the rotor stows neatly, parallel to the vessel hull, when the stabilizers are not in use. The rotor orientation and spin functions are precisely managed by Quantum’s hydraulic and electrical control systems. Designed using the latest technology and high-quality materials the ML200 Series hull unit offers the best performance of any system where significant roll reduction is required at loitering speeds. FEATURES: SIMPLE INSTALLATION: The stabilizer unit is delivered fully assembled with minimal disassembly required for installation. Since no customized hull pocket is required for the rotor’s stowed position, complicated hull shape fabrication is avoided. SMOOTH OPERATION: The unit provides smooth power transfer from the rotor to the ship’s hull via precision roller bearings used in both the spin drive shaft and the main shaft. PRECISION CONTROL: By varying the RPM and direction of rotation of the tube, the lift force can be Typical Vessel Length* 25-37m (85-120ft) Operating Speed Range Rotor Dimensions Length (inside vessel after installation)** 2-16 knots 220mm x 2100mm 1145mm (45”) 570mm (22.4”) Width** Height (overall)** Weight (dry) 750mm (44”) 1200kg (2645lbs) controlled with razor sharp precision, resulting in instantaneous response. EFFICIENCY: When properly sized and operating within acceptable vessel speeds, rotary stabilizers provide exceptional hydrodynamic efficiency compared with other stabilizer systems available. SAFETY: The rotor’s hydraulic system is equipped with automatic retract mechanism to allow the rotor to swiftly stow in case of impact during operation. While not in operation, the rotor is elegantly stowed along the hull, where it offers minimal possibility of impact and minimal effect during maneuvering conditions. In case of severe impact, half of the rotor tube will break away, in a design feature intended to sacrifice the rotor unit in order to preserve hull integrity. *Provided for reference only.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION DOCUMENT LONGITUDINAL LOCATION A rotor has distinct advantages over a fin because it can be placed in a much larger longitudinal region on the hull. A fin is restricted to the mid 1/3 of hull length due to pitching forces and steering effects, however this is where the fullest shape of the hull exists and therefore restricting the size of the fin. A rotor however does not influence steering if placed too far aft and will not experience excessive forces due to pitching if placed too far forward. OPERATION SUMMARY The rotor has an outer fiberglass tube (shown in yellow)...
