Detailed description
Detailed description
Designed for ORB hydraulic steering systems, the Simrad autopilot pump connection kit simplifies the integration of SteadySteer functionality. This kit provides pre-assembled hydraulic components for Simrad MKII pumps (models 1 to 5), reducing installation errors and improving the reliability of the autopilot system.
Hydraulic components and connectivity
The kit includes pre-assembled black hydraulic hoses with a diameter of 5/16 inch, designed for a maximum pressure of 1500 PSI. It comprises two black hoses of 750 mm (29.5 inches) and one clear hose of 750 mm (29.5 inches), all with a diameter of 5/16 inch and fitted with 9/16"-24 UNF fittings. For complete integration, the kit also contains two T-connectors (ORB-05M to 9/16"-24 UNF), an elbow connector (ORB-05M to 9/16"-24 UNF), and two 1/4" NPT to 9/16"-24 UNF adapters for standard ports. A SteadySteer flow sensor, a bottle of hydraulic fluid, and a filling funnel are also included.
Compatibility and SteadySteer features
This kit is compatible with ORB hydraulic steering systems and Simrad MKII pumps (models 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5). The SteadySteer functionality, supported by NAC-2 or NAC-3 processors (software version 1.1.02.00 or later), AP44, IS42, or AP48 control displays (software version 57.3.163 or later), and Simrad multifunction displays (software version 20.2 or later), allows immediate manual helm control without disengaging the autopilot. The system automatically re-engages once a new course is set, smoothing maneuvers.
Installation and maintenance
Installing this kit requires safety glasses and wrenches of 15 mm (9/16") and 16 mm (5/8"). Liquid Teflon-based thread sealant is recommended for SteadySteer kits. Note that any modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer may void the equipment’s approval for use.
