Reliable marine power.

Discover our full range of Vortum generators. Carefully crafted to deliver silent, steady performance when you need it most.
Vortum 3D Model

All the power, none of the headache.

Vortum is not just a generator, it’s peace of mind, performance, and quiet efficiency in one powerful package.

Precision-engineered for silence and durability.

Each Vortum generator is enclosed in a purpose-built sound-attenuated cabinet, designed to minimize noise without compromising airflow or performance. Key features include:

  • High-grade construction: Fabricated from 2mm powder-coated aluminium for superior corrosion resistance and a lightweight overall unit.
  • Innovative airflow design: Directional flow is managed through specially designed baffle end pieces, eliminating the need for commonly used noise-leaking vents.
  • Premium sound insulation: Lined with 32mm thick acoustic foam, embedded with 2mm rubber wavebar for maximum sound absorption.

Proven power and performance

At the heart of every Vortum generator is the robust Isuzu engine, seamlessly paired with a MeccAlte alternator from Italy. Combined with our custom-built cooling package, this results in a marine generator system that is:

  • Exceptionally reliable
  • Quiet in operation
  • Built to endure harsh marine environments

The Vortum Range.

This new line of super-silenced generator combines the renowned reliability of Isuzu-powered generators with cutting-edge sound attenuation technology, delivering quiet, efficient, and dependable performance at sea.
