INBOARD PERFORMANCE SYSTEM A revolutionary marine propulsion system There is an ever-increasing demand for higher speed, improved handling, enhanced onboard comfort and reduced emissions. Buyers of sports cruisers, sport fishing boats, flybridge yachts and other craft with traditional inboard propulsion want speeds well above 30 knots. But this is where al shaft installations really combine performance with driving pleasure, onboard comfort and reliability with good environmental proper The Volvo Penta IPS propulsion system is now available in five versions ranging from 350 to 600 hp performance level, suitable for approx. 30 up to 50 feet planing hulls. Volvo Penta IPS is setting a new standard: - Much improved efficiency, higher top speed, reduced fuel consumption/extended range, and great acceleration - Low-speed maneuvering is easier than ever before, and high speed handling is a dream - Onboard comfort is greatly enhanced thanks to much lower levels of sound and vibrations - Installation is greatly simplified - More space available for accommodation - Improved safety and quality - Ease of service, and a complete system supported by - Improved overall environmental care All this is combined with the usual benefits of a traditional inboard such as a robust, high strength construction, excel- lent corrosion resistance and the propellers under the hull. Around 30 knots, the conventional propeller shaft system starts to lose efficiency (see the lower curve in below dia- gram). Low efficiency means that more installed power is needed, which, in turn, results in increased fuel consump- tion, reduced cruising range and more exhaust emissions. The Volvo Penta IPS offers a revolutionary ^ solution to this, with outstanding efficiency over *^ the whole speed range 25-45 knots (see the upper curve in below diagram). Volvo Penta IPS has as much as 35% better efficiency at 38 knots. This means that engine power is transmitted much more efficiently into the water resulting in: - Increased speed - Reduced fuel consumption - Faster acceleration - Less emissions per nautical mile In a comparison between two identical boats with the same installed diesel power we have achieved 6 knots faster top speed with Volvo Penta IPS, a reduced fuel consumption at 30 knots cruise by > 30%, and, finally, an improved acceleration by 15% quicker out of the hole. Because of this superior efficiency, the product desig- nations 350/400/450/500/600 communicate perfor- mance level compared to a conventional shaft installation.

Why is Volvo Penta IPS so superior? Part of the improvement in efficiency is due to the fact that the system has a state-of-the-art engine - the Volvo Penta D4 and D6 - but almost all is due to the propulsion unit. If we look at what happens beneath the surface, we get the - Volvo Penta IPS patented propellers means increased blade area, half the load on each propeller, and smaller propeller diameter with minimized tip losses and cavita- - Furthermore, the propeller system prevents rotational losses and does not create any side forces. - The thrust the propellers produce is horizontal with...

The Volvo Penta IPS system can be installed in various ways, either as a compact system or with an extended jackshaft, giving opportunities for different boat designs. The system is always installed in a twin or multiple engine configuration. A special mounting collar is integrated in the hull con- struction. The propulsion unit is lifted in place from be- neath the hull, with the combined rubber suspension and The clamp ring is positioned and attached with stan- dard bolts. No time-consuming alignment is needed. Steering, shift and throttle plus instrumentation are connected in the...
