Octpus 2000cc/min ReversingPiston Pump 12VdcModel: AF2012 Reliable — Patented piston pump technology with only three moving parts Twice?The?Power — Delivers over twice the hydraulic output per watt of input Half?The?Power Consumption — Accurate ram positioning means fewer course corrections Adjustable Flow Rate — Configure performance to suit your vessel Easy?Servicing — Shut off valves allow removal without draining steering system The unique Octopus piston pump delivers over twice the hydraulic output per watt of input than a standard hydraulic gear pump.Gear pumps leak oil between the gears, while a piston (such as used in car engines) does not. This means the piston pump will place the cylinder ram exactly where it is required, positioning the rudder accurately. This gives far sharper steering, reducingunnecessary course corrections meaning battery consumption on Octopus pumps is up to half that of other pumps.Leading autopilot manufacturers choose Octopus pumps for their non RFB pilot systems which do not have a Rudder Feedback unit. Previously, slop in the system caused by gear leakage meant that a Rudder Feedback unit was necessary to tell the pilot the exact rudder position. As Octopus pumps will always bring the ram back to the required position the Rudder Feedback unit is not required, which also greatly simplifies installation.A professional installation should always have a method of isolating the pump from the steering system — Octopus pumps feature inbuilt shut off valves in the pump manifold.A pump that does not have variable flow (unless dedicated to a range of cylinders such as our fixed 0.8L pump) will be operating too fast or too slow in 90% of cases. Autopilot manufacturers get around this problem by adjusting the output to the pump to compensate, which either forces the pump to operate for longer periods of time which increases power consumption and wear on the parts, or it will operate at high pressure for short periods of time — also putting unnecessary strain and wear on the system.Octopus Variable Flow Reversing Pumps precisely control the speed of the ram, reducing unnecessary battery consumption, pressure, strain and wear on the hydraulic system.

Octopus 38mm Bore Linear Drive12" Stroke Remote Pump 12vDCModel: AF1212LAR12 Average Current 4-6 amps Max Current 19amps 12vDC Cylinder Bore: 38mm Variable Flow Rate: 600cc-1.2 litre/min Stroke: 305mm/12in Hardover Time(Suggested): 14-16 sec Max Rudder Torque: 1,200Nm/10,600lbin Peak Thrust: 400Kg/882lbs Max boat Length: 18m/60' An Octopus Hydraulic Linear Actuator is a simple, effective way to drive the rudder on a boat equipped with a mechanical steering system. The linear actuator is an assembly of an Octopus reversing pump and a marine hydraulic cylinder. This assembly is mounted on the rudder tiller-arm or quadrant. When the autopilot is not in use the cylinder runs freely along with the rudder. When the automatic pilot is in use a solenoid valve on the actuator closes and locks the cylinder. Steering signals from the pilot are now fed to the D.C. motor, which drives the pump to move the cylinder back and forth. De-energized, the solenoid valve immediately disconnects the automatic pilot from the rudder. The actuator has a small translucent oil reservoir, making it easy to check fluid levels. These actuators have only five moving parts. Mechanical simplicity gives our product reliability and ease of service when compared to complicated gear and screw actuators, making our units a favorite for offshore mariners. These actuators are shipped from our factory completely filled with oil and require no additional plumbing.
