Detailed description

La caixa de potència ACU-100 és un component central dels sistemes de pilot automàtic Evolution de Raymarine. Dissenyat per a velers i petites embarcacions a motor, actua com a interfície de potència entre el processador del pilot, la xarxa SeaTalkng i la unitat de potència (cilindre o bomba).

Control i alimentació per a pilots de 12V

L'ACU-100 (Actuator Control Unit) proporciona una alimentació de 12V DC estable i fiable al cilindre del pilot automàtic, així com als altres components de la xarxa SeaTalkng, com el sensor central EV-1 i el tauler de comandament. El seu paper és essencial per garantir una resposta precisa i immediata del timó. Està especialment dissenyat per a unitats de potència de menor consum, cosa que el converteix en la solució ideal per als sistemes Raymarine de timó de roda, timó de barra i bombes hidràuliques de 0,5 litres.

Posicionament dins la gamma Evolution

Dins la gamma de caixes de potència Raymarine, l'ACU-100 representa l'entrada de gamma, ben dimensionat per a instal·lacions lleugeres. Per a necessitats de potència superiors, com ara cilindres lineals o bombes hidràuliques de Tipus 1, caldrà optar per l'ACU-200. Per a unitats de potència de Tipus 2 i 3, caldrà dirigir-se a l'ACU-400. L'elecció de l'ACU-100 és, doncs, estratègica per a una instal·lació optimitzada en embarcacions on el consum elèctric i el pes siguin factors importants.

Integració en el sistema

L'ACU-100 es connecta fàcilment a la xarxa SeaTalkng, permetent una comunicació fluida amb el sensor EV-1 i les pantalles multifunció Raymarine. Les connexions robustes i clarament identificades per a l'alimentació, el motor del cilindre i l'embragatge simplifiquen la instal·lació. Aquesta caixa és el cervell muscular del pilot, executant les ordres de rumb amb una fiabilitat provada.

« The dedicated power controller for Evolution 12V autopilots »

Raymarine's ACU-100 (Actuator Control Unit - reference E70098) is the cornerstone of power integration for the Evolution range of autopilot systems. Specifically designed for the recreational boating market, this control unit is the essential link between the central sensor's decision-making intelligence and the mechanical actuator of the rudder.

Operating on a dedicated 12V DC power supply, the ACU-100 stands out for its robustness and field-proven reliability. As system engineers, we particularly value its compliance with the strictest international maritime standards, including IEC/EN 60945:2002 certification. This approval ensures excellent immunity to electromagnetic interference (EMI) and optimal resilience in harsh marine environments. It is the integration choice of choice for powering tiller or mid-sized wheel pilots.

In terms of network architecture, the ACU-100 drastically simplifies the deployment of the steering system. It converts complex trajectory algorithms into direct and secure electrical pulses for the power unit with near-zero latency. Its compact design makes installation in confined technical spaces easier while ensuring efficient thermal management. This power unit guarantees instant responsiveness in heading corrections, ensuring smooth, precise navigation and vital optimization of onboard electrical consumption.

Frequently Asked Questions

Need help? Contact us

What is the ACU-100 power unit from Raymarine?

The ACU-100 power unit (Actuator Control Unit) is a core component of Raymarine Evolution autopilot systems. It acts as the power interface between the autopilot computer, the SeaTalkng network, and the power unit (such as a ram or pump).

What is the required supply voltage for the ACU-100?

The ACU-100 is designed to operate exclusively on 12V DC electrical systems. It is not compatible with 24V installations.

With which types of power units is the ACU-100 compatible?

This housing is ideal for low-power drive units. It is fully compatible with wheelpilots, tillerpilots, and 0.5-litre hydraulic pumps.

Can I use the ACU-100 with a linear actuator or a Type 1 pump?

No, the ACU-100 is the entry-level model designed for light installations. For linear actuators or Type 1 hydraulic pumps, you must choose the higher-end model, the ACU-200.

Which central sensor is compatible with the ACU-100?

The ACU-100 is designed to operate in perfect synergy with the EV-1 intelligent core sensor from the Raymarine Evolution range, communicating via the SeaTalkng network.

How does the ACU-100 connect to the boat's system?

The ACU-100 connects very simply via the SeaTalkng network. It has robust, clearly labeled connection terminals for power, the ram motor, the rudder angle sensor, ground, and the communication network.

Does the ACU-100 unit power the SeaTalkng network?

No, the ACU-100 does not provide power to the SeaTalkng network. A separate power supply must be connected to the main SeaTalkng circuit to power other components such as the EV-1 sensor and the control head.

Is the ACU-100 suitable for a large sailboat?

The ACU-100 is specifically designed for small motorboats and small sailboats. For larger units requiring Type 2 or 3 actuators, the ACU-400 model should be considered.

Where should I install the ACU-100 unit on my boat?

It is recommended to install the ACU-100 in a dry, well-ventilated, and easily accessible location below deck. Although it is rugged, it must be protected from direct water spray and extreme temperatures.

Does the ACU-100 unit control the autopilot clutch?

No, the ACU-100 does not have connection terminals to control the clutch of the power unit. The manufacturer's official specifications indicate there is no clutch output on this model.

Does the ACU-100 require complex calibration after installation?

No, thanks to Raymarine’s Evolution technology, the system does not require complex calibration. Once the ACU-100 is connected to the EV-1 sensor, the autopilot learns and automatically adapts to your boat’s sailing characteristics.

Can I connect the ACU-100 to multifunction displays from other brands?

The ACU-100 communicates via the SeaTalkng / NMEA 2000 network. While it can share basic data on an NMEA 2000 network, full control and pilot configuration require a compatible Raymarine control head or multifunction display.

What does the reference E70098 include?

The E70098 reference corresponds only to the ACU-100 power unit. SeaTalkng cables, the EV-1 sensor, the control panel, and the power unit are usually sold separately or as part of a complete autopilot pack.

What is the weight of the ACU-100?

The ACU-100 housing is very compact and lightweight, weighing 0.6 kg, making it an ideal choice for boats where weight optimization is a key criterion.

Is a dedicated fuse required for the ACU-100?

Yes, the ACU-100 must be installed on a 12V circuit protected by an appropriate fuse or circuit breaker, sized according to Raymarine’s installation manual recommendations to ensure the boat’s electrical safety.

Is the ACU-100 compatible with hydraulic steering systems?

Yes, the ACU-100 is compatible with hydraulic steering systems, but only with small 0.5-litre pumps. For larger-capacity pumps, a more powerful ACU unit is required.

How do I know if my current power unit will work with the ACU-100?

You must check the maximum power consumption of your drive unit. The ACU-100 is designed for low-power units (up to 7 amps continuous). If in doubt, refer to the technical specifications of your ram or pump.

Can the ACU-100 operate autonomously without the EV-1 sensor?

No, the ACU-100 is designed specifically to function as the power interface for the Evolution system and requires the EV-1 central sensor to receive heading and movement instructions.

What tools are required to install the ACU-100?

The mechanical installation requires basic tools: a drill, screws suitable for the mounting surface, and a screwdriver. The housing comes with a mounting template to simplify drilling the fixing holes.

Does the ACU-100 control unit heat up during operation?

Like any power device, the ACU-100 can dissipate some heat during intensive autopilot use. That's why it's important to install it in a sufficiently ventilated area to ensure natural cooling.
