Vetus M-Line
The line-up of the redesigned M-Line marine diesel engines is impressive. With new features, modern appearance and added benefits, the new M-Line range is designed to meet future market demand.
NEW FEATURES
One of the most notable changes is the cast aluminium top cover. This cover incorporates various new and innovative features. It includes a water cooled element and absorbs radiant heat from the engine. This innovative concept results in a significant temperature reduction of up to 15°C – a reduction of 20%! Moreover, the sturdy aluminium top cover significantly reduces the noise level of the engine in combination with the new air filter, tests show a sound reduction of about 5 dB(A) and “near silent” operation at a cruising speed of around 2200 rpm. Finally the water cooled top cover is designed to be used as a step, making it easier to move around the engine.
Furthermore, the redesigned M-Line incorporates many other new features to make life easier for both the boat builder and the end user:
Service parts such as fuses and relays (A), fuel filter and fuel connections (B), impeller (C), oil dipstick (D) and the oil filter (E) are all easily acces
On all M4 engines the impeller is located at the front, for even easier access
The wiring is improved to offer easy connection and extra safety
All M-Line engines are equipped with an electric fuel pump (F), actuated by the ignition switch
A new air inlet filter housing attenuates the airflow and lowers the induction sound level (G)
The heat exchanger unit has 26 improvements, including the construction materials and surface treatments
The plastic front cover enhances safety and appearance. All pulleys and belts are covered, thereby meeting the EC Machinery Directive
Front mounted oil and fuel filters including a bracket are available as an option, making servicing even more convenient (H)
Supplied as standard with instrument panel, four flexible engine mountings and an oil sump pump

MAXWELL ANCHORING SYSTEMS
Maxwell equipment is born of innovation and backed by years of experience in the manufacture of the world’s highest quality anchor windlasses, ancillary deck gear and stern handling products.
Maxwell’s innovative approach to design resulted in the introduction of automatic rope/chain windlasses to the global marine market during the mid 1990’s. These were a radical departure from all other windlasses, revolutionary in design and technical features.
VETUS LAUNCHES THE E-LINE
Peace and quiet on the water with only the sound of the waves. With the new E-LINE from VETUS you can enjoy nature at its best. Think of the noise level of a sailing boat with the manoeuvrability of a motorboat.
The E-LINE from VETUS is compact, complete, highly efficient, plug & play and suitable for both new builds and re-powering. The E-LINE drive works with the V-CAN bus system and meets all current and future emission requirements.
VETUS supplies the complete package; from shore power to propeller and can therefore offer a highly efficient installation. The motor controller has been specially developed for electric boating. The E-LINE motor is equipped with a smart, water-cooled 48 V controller that makes it possible to charge the battery bank with a 24 V battery charger.
