Promas Lite The ultimate propeller/rudder system upgrade for improved efficiency The efficient solution Promas Lite is not just a propeller upgrade – rudder performance is optimised as well original one Promas Lite is a version of the successful Rolls-Royce Promas integrated propeller and rudder system, designed specifically for vessels already in service. With the advances in propeller design, it is well known that propeller blade changes, or the fitting of new propellers, can have a significant effect on propulsive effici- ency, fuel consumption and, therefore, emissions. With Promas Lite these improvements can be maximised, as the propeller and rudder are treated as a complete system – further increases in efficiency can be achieved with improved manoeuvrability for only a small increase in cost. To deliver the ultimate efficiency improvements, Rolls-Royce propeller and rudder designers have combined  Welding a prefabricated bulb in position on the existing rudder What’s involved in a Promas Lite upgrade?  Bolting the stainless steel hubcap to the propeller hub their world-leading experience. This team effort is the key that has unlocked the money-saving potential. Each Promas Lite system is custom engineered to an individual vessel and its specified operating profile. The installation is simple and straightforward, with only three areas of modification, as illustrated above. The upgrade can normally be completed within a week. Which vessels can be upgraded? Promas Lite is suitable for both twin and single screw vessels. The best results are achieved on bulky single screw vessels with a high block coefficient. Promas Lite has been installed on several twin screw passenger vessels, significantly reducing fuel consumption and emissions. Vessels that have changed their operating profile for which they were designed have most to gain. Trial results indicate that improvements in efficiency of between 5-15 per cent can be achieved, giving a payback period of we
