Powerful Hydraulic Linear Drive for Precision Steering

The Raymarine T3 Hydraulic Linear 12V drive system is designed to provide precise and reliable autopilot steering for mechanically steered vessels up to 77,000 lbs (35,000 kg) displacement. Unlike traditional hydraulic steering systems, this drive operates independently, ensuring seamless integration with existing mechanical setups. Engineered for durability and efficiency, the system enhances vessel control, making long voyages and demanding conditions more manageable.

Advanced Hydraulic Steering System

The T3 Hydraulic Linear drive offers a fully isolated autopilot steering solution, ensuring smooth and controlled navigation. Key components include:

• Hydraulic Ram – A self-contained steering cylinder with a built-in clutch for friction-free manual steering when the autopilot is disengaged. The integrated load-limiting system prevents excessive force, ensuring safe operation.
• Reversing Hydraulic Pump – Provides the necessary power to drive the hydraulic ram with precision, maintaining steady and responsive steering.
• Hydraulic Fluid Reservoir – Supplies the hydraulic system with fluid, keeping operations smooth and efficient.

Key Highlights

• Designed for mechanically steered vessels up to 77,000 lbs (35,000 kg) displacement
• Completely independent autopilot steering system
• Friction-free manual steering when autopilot is not engaged
• Load-limiting hydraulic ram prevents excessive force on the system
• Ensures smooth and reliable autopilot performance in marine environments

This system is an excellent solution for boat owners seeking enhanced control and efficiency in their vessel’s steering, particularly on long-distance cruises and under varying sea conditions.
