The Hundested Gearbox have a reputation for their solid design.  The propeller hub is filled with environmentally friendly grease, so hub oil spills are a problem of the past. 

During maneuvering the engine RPM is kept at a higher RPM, the thrust can be changed from ahead to astern without neutral delay, and the fear to stall the engines.

The pitch is controlled with a Danfoss PGV32 valve. The Aventics close loop controller maintains the pitch position.

2 Cummins QSK 800Hp engines power the vessel. The Aventics system controls engine speed, propeller pitch, and clutch engagement.

The forward lever controls the FWD propeller, the recessed lever controls the propeller in the AFT of the vessel. The ability to control rudders and thrust individually enables the operator to offset tide currents and wind conditions without changing the course of the vessel. Varying pitch and engine RPM at the same time saves fuel and operating cost. 

The display shows pitch, engine speed, shaft speed, and engine load.

The redundant system configuration increases vessel safety. Primary system or secondary system can be used to run the vessel. The control functions for the operator remain the same. Both systems use the same control lever, speed, and thrust curves. 

The redundant power supplies allow for uninterrupted operation when one supply fails.

The controls are galvanically insulated from the PGV32 valve, this allows a smooth and precise control of the propeller pitch.
