BPS-1 1-Transducer Ultrasonic Antifouling System - 12VDC
The BPS-1 is a single 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 20ft in length or can be combined with additional systems for larger vessels. The BPS-1 can also be tasked with protecting drives and rudders.
The BPS-1 Package Includes:
- 1x BPS-1 Control Module with Integrated Power Cable
- 1x Submersible Ultrasonic Transducers with 15ft of Cable
- 1x Epoxy Kit
- 1x Printed Installation and Operation Manual
Specifications:
- Voltage: 12V or 24V DC
- Average Power Draw: 0.25Ah
- Transducer Strength: 60W
- Cable Length: 15ft per transducer
- Frequency: Multi-frequency ultrasonic sweep algorithm (20kHz-42kHz)
Installation Overview:
- No Thru-Hulls: The transducers are installed directly on top of your hull surface using the provided epoxy.
- Install Signal Cable: Each transducer has 15ft of connected signal cable. This ensures an easy installation from the transducer to the controller.
- Mounting the Controller: The BPS-1 Controller runs off of your boats existing house battery. It is a simple 2-wire connection the the battery bank or distribution panel.
- Enjoy Worry-Free Boating: Thats it! Your BPS system is done! Let our advanced antifouling protection do its job. Each system is programmed with a multi-frequency sweeping algorithm to ensure that your boat has the best antifouling protection on the market.
How the Technology Works:
- The Mechanism: The system emits high-frequency ultrasonic waves through the hull drives, creating a microscopic barrier of resonance.
- Targeting the Root Cause: These ultrasound waves repel biofouling from attaching to your hull before they ever have the chance to attach.
- Eco-Friendly: 100% chemical-free. It does not leach pollutants into the water, making it safe for marinas with strict environmental regulations.
- Marine Life Safe: The frequencies used are outside the hearing range of marine mammals and humans.
Benefits:
- Fuel Efficiency: A clean hull creates less drag. Maintaining hull smoothness ensures you get the best possible MPG and top speed.
- Reduced Maintenance Costs: Significantly extends the life of your bottom paint and reduces the frequency of expensive haul-outs.
- Diver Savings: Reduces the need for monthly hull cleaning services.
- Hard-to-Reach Protection: Unlike paint, ultrasonic waves resonate through complex parts that are difficult to paint and clean, such as stern drives, sea strainers, and rudders.
- Fit Forget: Once installed, the system runs automatically with zero scheduled maintenance required.

The BPS Marine BPS-1 is an advanced ultrasonic antifouling system designed to protect hulls, drives, rudders, and stabilizers from biofouling. This single transducer unit is suitable for vessels up to 20 feet in length and can be combined with additional systems for larger boats. Its easy installation involves mounting the transducer directly on the hull surface using the included epoxy kit, without the need for through-hulls, making it suitable for various vessel types. The control module connects simply to your boat's house battery with a two-wire setup, providing a hassle-free installation process that takes just minutes. Once installed, the system operates automatically, emitting multi-frequency ultrasonic waves that create a microscopic resonance barrier, effectively repelling marine growth before it attaches.
The ultrasonic waves emitted by the BPS-1 are eco-friendly and safe for marine life, operating outside the hearing range of dolphins, whales, and humans. The system uses a multi-frequency sweep algorithm (20kHz-42kHz) to ensure comprehensive antifouling protection, especially in areas where traditional coatings may struggle. This technology reduces the need for frequent hull cleaning, extending the lifespan of bottom paint and minimizing maintenance costs. It also improves fuel efficiency by maintaining a smooth hull surface, thereby decreasing drag and maximizing vessel speed.
Designed for durability and ease of use, the BPS-1 requires no ongoing maintenance once installed. It offers a chemical-free alternative to traditional antifouling paints, making it an environmentally responsible choice for boat owners and marinas with strict environmental standards. The package includes a control module, ultrasonic transducer with 15 feet of cable, epoxy kit, and an installation manual, ensuring a straightforward setup. With benefits spanning fuel savings, reduced maintenance, and protection of hard-to-reach areas such as rudders and drives, the BPS Marine BPS-1 provides reliable, worry-free antifouling protection for small to medium-sized boats.
