Propellers Datasheet

What you should know about Class “S” propellers
In August 1981 the international ISO have made a clear definition of propeller tolerances for propeller diameter from 0.8m to 2.5m. Thee following rules have been determined.

The pitch tolerances

Pitch location Class
S 1 2
Local Pitch +/- 1.5% +/- 2% +/- 3%
With a minimum of 10 mm 15 mm 20 mm
[/vc_column][/vc_row]

Tolerances on edges radius
From 1.5 mm for the class to S 2.5 mm for the class 3

Tolerances on section thickness
Not more than 0.5 mm for class S
Not more than 3 mm for class 3

Tolerances on angle comparing each blade
Not more than 1° for class S and 1
Not more than 2° for class 2 and 3

Advantages of the class s
The comparsion between a class 2 and a class S made in the cavitation tunnel of Val de Reuil has showed an efficiency of 63% for class 2 when the same class S showed an efficiency of 71%. Other advantages such noise reduction or vibrations are the major advantages of the class S.
