Kamewa FF - series

nnnn

The FF-series waterjets are as tough as jobs they were created for

nnnn

FF-series water jet (FF67)

nnnn

Robust reliability

nnnn

Kamewa FF-series waterjets cover the

nnnn

power range between 100 and 2000 kW.

nnnn

Typical applications include naval craft,

nnnn

search and rescue boats, pilot boats, work

nnnn

boats and pleasure boats.

nnnn

The FF-series waterjet units are

nnnn

manufactured from strong, corrosion-

nnnn

resistant materials. Only the impeller, shaft

nnnn

and steering/reversing rods are made of

nnnn

stainless steel. All the other components

nnnn

are of aluminium construction based on

nnnn

thorough strength calculations to minimise

nnnn

weight.

nnnn

The inlet duct is fabricated from marine

nnnn

aluminium plate for light weight, optimum

nnnn

hydrodynamic performance and resistance

nnnn

to corrosion.

nnnn

The pump is a single-stage axial-flow

nnnn

design providing a high volume flow with

nnnn

good pulling thrust in a wide speed range.

nnnn

Usually, the FF-series jets do not require

nnnn

reduction gears.

nnnn

All FF-series waterjets can also be

nnnn

supplied as booster units i.e. jet units

nnnn

without steering components.

nnnn

On delivery, the Kamewa FF-series

nnnn

waterjets are painted and complete with

nnnn

structurally dimensioned inlet ducts for

nnnn

easy installation by bolting or welding.

nnnn

Rolls-Royce - the professional supplier

nnnn

Rolls-Royce is the world leader in

nnnn

research, development and manufacture

nnnn

of waterjets for commercial, naval and

nnnn

pleasure-boat markets. It is also the only

nnnn

supplier in the industry with its own, fully

nnnn

equipped hydrodynamic research centre.

nnnn

The centre continuously develops and

nnnn

tests new products and refines the

nnnn

existing product line.

nnnn

All Kamewa FF-series waterjets are

nnnn

produced using the latest 3D CAD/CAM

nnnn

tools to ensure high level of quality and

nnnn

accuracy in design and manufacturing.

nnnn

Rolls-Royce also utilises its own

nnnn

proprietary, computerised design program,

nnnn

which contains the latest waterjet

nnnn

technology data combined with the actual

nnnn

results from earlier waterjet installations.

nnnn

Aided by this program, individual

nnnn

influences and the combined effect of all

nnnn

the existing outlet diameters and blade

nnnn

pitch angles will be studied to optimise the

nnnn

performance of every installation.

nnnn

Kamewa FF-series sets new standards for

nnnn

small and medium-size applications of

nnnn

waterjets in terms of performance,

nnnn

economy and reliability.

nnnn

Wherever you are, Rolls-Royce's global

nnnn

service network will be there to provide

nnnn

extensive through-life support for Kamewa

nnnn

waterjets.
