Product description
The DW10 is a compact underwater thruster designed for remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) and autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs). At a rated 36 V and about 540 W of continuous power it produces at least 10 kgf of static thrust. The key difference between the DW and SW series is operating depth. SW thrusters work down to 30 meters, while the DW10 is rated to 350 meters.
Key features
- 350 m operating depth. The housing is designed to withstand pressure on deep water missions. The SW7, which shares the same Ø100 mm diameter, is limited to 30 m.
- Two-stage sealing. Threaded joints, two independent sealed chambers and a low-friction dynamic shaft seal keep sand, silt and seawater out of the motor chamber.
- Water cooling. The motor is potted with a high thermal conductivity compound. Heat goes straight into the surrounding water, so the thruster can run continuously at full load.
- Precision-cast aluminum housing. The housing and propeller are aluminum alloy and the nozzle is POM. The streamlined nozzle reduces drag under water.
- Easy integration. It comes with a 1.5 m, Ø8 mm TPU-jacketed 3 x 16 AWG cable. The driver (ESC) is external.
Applications
Typical applications include medium-class ROV and AUV platforms, unmanned surface vehicles (USVs), electric surfboards and research vehicles carrying out deep water inspection or observation.
Is it enough for your project?
A single DW10 delivers at least 10 kgf of static thrust. For example, an ROV with two DW10 units on the horizontal axis has at least 20 kgf of forward static thrust. The speed the vehicle reaches also depends on hull drag and tether load, so thrust needs should be assessed together with the vehicle's drag.
The thruster weighs 840 g in air and about 480 g in water. The propeller is Ø80 mm and the motor rotor has 24 poles. Operating temperature is 0 °C to 40 °C and storage temperature is 0 °C to 50 °C. If you need more thrust, consider the DW15, and for shallow water only, the lighter SW7.
How it compares to similar models
- SW7. Same 36 V and Ø100 mm diameter, 7 kgf of thrust and 360 W of power. It weighs 700 g and is limited to 30 m depth.
- DW15. 750 W at 48 V and at least 15 kgf of thrust. The housing is Ø130.6 x 174.5 mm and it weighs 1260 g.
- W30. Up to 7.7 kgf of forward thrust and 200 m depth. At 420 g it is much lighter, and the ESC and propellers come in the kit.
Frequently asked questions
Is the driver (ESC) included?
No. The DW10 runs with an external driver. The ESC CubeMars recommends for this model is the TW-40A-12S underwater ESC.
Can it be used in seawater?
Yes. The sealing design keeps seawater and sediment out of the motor chamber. The manufacturer recommends rinsing the thruster with clean water after each use.
Does it need regular maintenance?
According to the manufacturer, the two-stage sealed chambers keep sediment out of the motor chamber, so no maintenance is needed. Rinsing with clean water after use is enough.
What do I need for mounting?
The box contains one mounting base and six M4 x 12 mm screws. CubeMars also publishes a 3D drawing of a shared mounting bracket for the SW7 and DW10.

Frequently asked questions
The most common questions about motor selection, delivery and technical support.
Is the product in stock and when is it dispatched?
Our products ship from our own warehouse in Turkey. Your order is dispatched within 3 business days. Current stock status is shown on this page.
Which motor fits my project? Can you help me choose?
Yes. Tell us the torque, speed and supply voltage you need, and we will find the right series together. You can also compare using the specifications table on this page and the filters on the category page.
- For high torque at low speed, the AK, AKE and AKH series with gearbox
- For direct drive and low inertia, the frameless RI and RO series
- For cameras and stabilization systems, the GL series
Are the products genuine and under warranty?
Robotizma is an official CubeMars distributor. Every product we sell is genuine and covered by the manufacturer's warranty.
Where can I find the datasheet and mounting dimensions?
The Specifications section on this page lists rated torque, peak torque, KV, no-load speed, weight and outer dimensions. If you need the detailed datasheet, CAD file or driver documentation, ask our technical team.
Do you offer corporate sales, quotes and invoices?
We sell to universities, industry and R&D projects. For volume pricing and a formal quote, fill in the Request a quote form on this page and our team will reply with price and delivery details.
Which driver and communication can I use with the motor?
In the AK and AKH series actuators the driver board is built into the motor and communicates over CAN. The AKE series and the frameless RI and RO series motors need an external FOC driver. The R-Link and S-Link interfaces are for setup and debugging, and we can support you during installation.
