Air conditioning (and heating in winter), refrigerators, electronic devices such as tablets, PCs and smartphones, or useful tools for cooking. They are just a part of the many devices that are now (almost) indispensable on board but require power to operate. With Whisper Power systems you can get around this problem.
As the exclusive distributor for Italy of Whisper Power, Bcool Engineering offers comprehensive support in the process of design, supply, installation and testing of onboard power systems. The company closely follows all phases of the project, from initial conception to delivery of the vessel, ensuring that each system is installed correctly and functions optimally.
How Whisper Power systems work
Prominent among Whisper Power systems for sailing is the Piccolo range of generators (pictured above), which is distinguished by its use of permanent magnet alternators (PMAs), making it much more compact than conventional generators. These systems, due to their light weight and small size, offer significant advantages in terms of footprint and ease of installation on board vessels. The speed of the generator motor can be set at an optimal speed, effectively balancing power output, noise and vibration.
For those looking for an all-in-one solution, however, there is OctoPower. This system appoints an integrated solution for on-board power management on vessels, offeringplug-and-play systems with power ratings ranging from 3 to 50 kVA. The lithium battery bank that powers an inverter is the central component of OctoPower; it provides electricity quietly and continuously and can be recharged in several ways (photovoltaic, generator, alternator, and shore power).
Installation and support in after-sales service
In addition to the installation phase, Bcool Engineering offers targeted after-sales service, including maintenance and inspection of the systems. This service ensures that systems remain efficient and reliable over time, giving customers peace of mind that they will always have a well-functioning system on board. Thanks to the many years of experience of its technical team and collaborators in the marine market, Bcool Engineering is able to provide customized solutions that meet the specific needs of each boat, ensuring high standards of efficiency, performance and reliability.

Bcool Engineering operates through its offices in Giussano and Seregno, located in the province of Monza and Brianza. These facilities house sales and technical offices, a warehouse for storing and shipping products, and a technical workshop for testing and repairing equipment.
