Tesvolt Ocean's Battery Module Passes RINA Tests, Boosting Clean Ship Propulsion

Tesvolt Ocean's Kaptein Compass Core battery module has received a significant boost, passing all RINA tests for type approval certification. This development comes amidst high demand for secure battery systems for ship propulsion, as more ports enforce clean propulsion rules.

The battery module, measuring 60.5 cm in length, 62.4 cm in depth, and 14.9 cm in height, and weighing 5.9 kg per kilowatt hour of storage capacity, can be mounted individually and at any angle in the ship. Two people can install the modules without a crane, even in hard-to-reach areas.

The modules have proven to be extremely robust and vibration-resistant, capable of withstanding being laid on the floor and walked on. In case of critical temperatures, a multi-stage protection system activates, ensuring safety. Air cooling is sufficient for the battery system.

Patrizio Di Francesco, North Europe Special Projects Manager and Lead Engineer at RINA Germany in Hamburg, oversaw the certification process. The 'Kaptein NMC Compass Core' battery system is approved for both inland and maritime navigation.

Tesvolt Ocean's Compass Core battery system, designed specifically for smaller ships and suitable for retrofitting in space-limited areas, has received a major endorsement with RINA's approval. This development is expected to meet the growing demand for secure and robust battery systems in the maritime industry.
