With a maximum input power of 1,100kW the new UltraJet UJ525 is the first UltraJet model to be fully designed using Solidworks 3D software to optimise the flow characteristics of the jet.
The first UltraJet UJ525 installations were ordered for a new 18-metre catamaran project before the jet design had been finalised, and have already been delivered.
The new model is designed for single, twin, triple or quad installations in boats up to 200 tonnes
The UltraJet UJ525 incorporates several improvements which include a redesigned reverse deflector with improved flow characteristics to increase the reverse and manoeuvring thrust. There are also a number of improvements on the UltraJet UJ525 to improve durability, service life and maintainability.
When requested, interceptors can also be fitted to the UltraJets to provide fuel-efficient steering and to optimise the trim of the boat with varying loads. Various interceptor control systems are available.
In common with other Ultra Dynamics' waterjets, the new UJ525 is constructed in marine grade aluminium alloy, with the impeller, its housing, shafts and operating cylinders for steering and reverse being made of stainless steel.
The UJ525 may be configured for the complete range of UltraJet Control systems, including JetMaster joystick control with a multiple-range of options. This system offers features previously only available on more expensive systems including the integration of diesel engine, throttles and waterjet management functions into a single control system. It also incorporates safety features and can also interface with autopilots.
