Hybrid Module: ZF 3300 PTI with e-motor and support frame
ZF hybrid module
Key Facts
What can Hybrid Module provide?
Thanks to its new marine hybrid module, ZF simplifies electrification of new and existing ship designs. The key feature of the overall solution is a newly developed supporting frame – which, unlike the usual setup, dispenses with the need for a separate base for the e-motor and for an offset-adjustment coupling. This plug-and-play approach, which is unrivaled in the market, reduces installation space and considerably simplifies the installation of the module and the maintenance of the e-motor.
Details
Technical Information
In the new marine hybrid module, ZF combines its established ZF 3300 PTI transmission, which can cover a power range of up to 1,940 kW at 2,450 rpm, with an application-specific electric motor in the options 150 kW, 200 kW and 300 kW. The key feature is an all-new supporting frame.
The combination of these two innovative technologies in one propulsion system guarantees perfect interaction and optimum power output in a comparatively compact design.
The frame design eliminates the need for a separate base for the electric motor and for an offset-adjustment coupling between the components. A custom designed torsion clutch absorbs the torsional vibrations from the electric motor. The supporting frame also centers the electric motor in relation to the transmission.
This plug-and-play setup, which is unrivaled in the marine market, hugely simplifies the installation of the hybrid drive module and the maintenance of the electric motor. The drive also takes up much less installation space. This pays dividends particularly when designing yachts and ferries, where every square centimeter of available space counts. The hybrid module can also be combined with standard equipment, allowing existing ship platforms to be fitted and electrified with this module.

Benefits
- All-in-one solution allowas easy electrification of new and existing marine platforms.
- Newly developed and unique supporting frame centre the e-motor to the gearbox and enables plug and play setup.
- Simplified installation as no need for a separate base for the e-motor. The bearing is realized by a joint angle bracket with the transmission. No offset compensating coupling is required.
- Good accessibility to the e-motor simplifies maintenance and service.
- High drive power with a compact design that saves installation space.
- A wide range of variants available, as different hybrid transmissions can be connected to an application-specific e-motor in the options 150 kW, 200 kW and 300 kW.
- Flexibility to be integrated into a wide variety of hybrid vessel propulsion solutions.
