BPS Marine BPS-8 8-Transducer Ultrasonic Antifouling System for Boats Up to 80 Feet

BPS-8 8-Transducer Ultrasonic Antifouling System - 12VDC

The BPS-8 is an eight-transducer system that can add antifouling protection to hulls, drives, rudders, stabilizers, and more. This single system can provide ultrasonic antifouling protection for hulls up to 80ft in length or can be combined with additional systems for larger vessels. The BPS-8 is also the perfect solution for vessels under 52 with inboards or sail drives to have one system covering the entire vessel.

The BPS-8 Package Includes:

• 1x BPS-8 Control Module with Integrated Power Cable


• 8x Submersible Ultrasonic Transducers with 15ft of Cable


• 4x Additional 15ft Extension Cables


• 2x Epoxy Kits


• 1x Printed Installation and Operation Manual

Specifications:

• Voltage: 12V or 24V DC


• Average Power Draw: 2Ah


• Transducer Strength: 60W


• Cable Length: 15ft per transducer


• Frequency: Multi-frequency ultrasonic sweep algorithm (20kHz-42kHz)

Installation Overview:

• No Thru-Hulls: The transducers are installed directly on top of your hull surface using the provided epoxy.


• Install Signal Cable: Each transducer has 15ft of connected signal cable. This ensures an easy installation from the transducer to the controller.


• Mounting the Controller: The BPS-1 Controller runs off of your boats existing house battery. It is a simple 2-wire connection the the battery bank or distribution panel.


• Enjoy Worry-Free Boating: Thats it! Your BPS system is done! Let our advanced antifouling protection do its job. Each system is programmed with a multi-frequency sweeping algorithm to ensure that your boat has the best antifouling protection on the market.

How the Technology Works:

• The Mechanism: The system emits high-frequency ultrasonic waves through the hull drives, creating a microscopic barrier of resonance.


• Targeting the Root Cause: These ultrasound waves repel biofouling from attaching to your hull before they ever have the chance to attach.


• Eco-Friendly: 100% chemical-free. It does not leach pollutants into the water, making it safe for marinas with strict environmental regulations.


• Marine Life Safe: The frequencies used are outside the hearing range of marine mammals and humans.

Benefits:

• Fuel Efficiency: A clean hull creates less drag. Maintaining hull smoothness ensures you get the best possible MPG and top speed.


• Reduced Maintenance Costs: Significantly extends the life of your bottom paint and reduces the frequency of expensive haul-outs.


• Diver Savings: Reduces the need for monthly hull cleaning services.


• Hard-to-Reach Protection: Unlike paint, ultrasonic waves resonate through complex parts that are difficult to paint and clean, such as stern drives, sea strainers, and rudders.


• Fit Forget: Once installed, the system runs automatically with zero scheduled maintenance required.

The BPS Marine BPS-8 is an advanced ultrasonic antifouling system designed to protect hulls, drives, rudders, and stabilizers on vessels up to 80 feet long. Featuring eight submerged transducers, this system provides comprehensive coverage, making it ideal for vessels under 52 feet with inboards or sail drives. The system includes a control module with an integrated power cable, eight ultrasonic transducers with 15-foot cables, extension cables, epoxy kits, and a detailed installation manual. Its multi-frequency ultrasonic sweep (20kHz-42kHz) effectively prevents biofouling by emitting high-frequency sound waves that create a microscopic resonance barrier on the hull surface. This chemical-free technology is safe for marine life and environmentally friendly, avoiding pollutants associated with traditional antifouling paints. Installation is straightforward; transducers are mounted directly onto the hull with epoxy, eliminating the need for thru-hulls, and the control unit connects easily to the boat's existing battery system with just a two-wire setup. Once installed, the system operates automatically, providing worry-free antifouling protection that requires minimal maintenance. The ultrasonic waves target the root cause of biofouling, repelling marine growth before it attaches, which results in cleaner hulls, enhanced fuel efficiency, and reduced maintenance costs. By maintaining a smooth hull surface, boaters can enjoy increased top speeds and better MPG, while also decreasing the frequency of hull cleaning and haul-outs. The ultrasonic technology penetrates complex areas such as stern drives, sea strainers, and rudders where paint may be difficult to apply or maintain, offering effective protection for hard-to-reach parts. This eco-friendly system is safe for marine life, as the frequencies used are outside the hearing range of marine mammals and humans. Once installed, the BPS-8 operates reliably with no scheduled upkeep required, making it a cost-effective and environmentally conscious solution for protecting your vessel's underwater surfaces and prolonging the life of bottom coatings.
