2、, in the case of revision, the year of last revision.Anumber in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscriptepsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 Th

3、is specification supplies general characteristics andinterface details of propeller type, fixed-tunnel thruster unitspermanently installed in marine vessels or structures.1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated ineach s

Combiningvalues from the two systems may result in non-conformancewith the standard.NOTE 1This specification supplies only general design, interface, andpurchase information and does not include requi

5、rements for use, thrustercontrols, or associated equipment.The purchaser of the thruster equipmentspecified herein is cautioned that he must properly correlate the operatingrequirements with the thruster specified.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, assoc
