PRO-8 8-Transducer Ultrasonic Antifouling System - 24VDC
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 Marine PRO-8 8-Transducer Ultrasonic Antifouling System, part number 24V-PRO-8, is designed for B2B marine applications requiring proactive biofouling prevention. This 24VDC system utilizes eight submersible ultrasonic transducers to emit multi-frequency ultrasonic waves (20kHz-42kHz) through a vessel's hull and drives. This process creates a microscopic resonance barrier that deters marine organisms from attaching, thereby reducing biofouling. It is suitable for hulls up to 80 feet in length, or for vessels under 52 feet with inboards or sail drives needing comprehensive coverage. The system addresses common operational challenges by maintaining hull smoothness, which contributes to fuel efficiency and potentially extends the lifespan of bottom paint. Installation involves epoxying transducers directly to the hull and connecting the control module to the vessel's 12V or 24V DC house battery, without requiring thru-hulls. This system provides a chemical-free antifouling solution, minimizing environmental impact.
The PRO-8 package includes one BPS-8 Control Module with an integrated power cable, eight submersible ultrasonic transducers with 15ft of cable each, four additional 15ft extension cables, two epoxy kits for installation, and a printed installation and operation manual.
The system operates on both 12V and 24V DC power. It has an average power draw of 2Ah, making it compatible with standard marine house battery systems.
A single PRO-8 system can provide ultrasonic antifouling protection for hulls up to 80 feet in length. For larger vessels, multiple systems can be combined to achieve broader coverage.
The transducers are installed directly onto the hull surface using the provided epoxy kits. This method eliminates the need for thru-hulls, simplifying the installation process and maintaining hull integrity.
