Detailed description

Designed for integrating Garmin Reactor hydraulic autopilot systems with Mercury Verado engines, the Garmin Verado adapter kit (part number 010-11202-02) is a set of hydraulic fittings. This kit is essential for connecting the Garmin SmartPump to a Verado steering system, where the presence of the Mercury pump module requires specific installation steps.

Composition and Technical Functionality

The kit includes precise components to ensure hydraulic compatibility. It contains four 1/4" NPT to ORFS adapters, two 1/4" NPT male-to-female adapters, four NPT male-to-ORFS female adapters, two ORFS tees, and two high-pressure ORFS ball shut-off valves. These components are supplemented by a barb shut-off valve, a barb-to-NPT adapter, a barb tee, and four hose clamps. These fittings manage high- and low-pressure connections, including for the Shadow Drive™ sensor and the SmartPump manifold.

Integration and Compatibility

This kit is specifically compatible with Garmin Reactor hydraulic autopilots, such as the Reactor 40 Hydraulic Corepack with SmartPump or SmartPump v2. It simplifies installation by providing the necessary fittings for the hydraulic circuit, including the return line connection and integration of the Shadow Drive sensor. Note that hydraulic hoses are not included and must be supplied separately. Installation requires adherence to Garmin’s specific hydraulic schematics for single- or dual-station systems.

Expert opinion

« Critical integration Garmin Reactor and Mercury Verado »

The Garmin Verado adapter kit is a key component for any boat owner equipped with Mercury Verado engines looking to integrate a Garmin Reactor autopilot. Its practical value lies in its ability to resolve the complexity of interfacing between the Mercury hydraulic steering system, which includes a proprietary pump module, and the Garmin SmartPump autopilot. Without this kit, correct installation and optimal autopilot performance would be compromised, particularly regarding the Shadow Drive™ sensor, which requires specific fittings to avoid flow restrictions.

In terms of installation scenarios, this kit is essential for single or dual helm configurations on Verado-powered boats. The expert installer must pay close attention to the provided hydraulic diagrams, especially for positioning the Shadow Drive sensor, which must be installed horizontally and at a specific distance from the helm to ensure responsiveness. The differentiation of this product lies in its specificity: it is not a set of generic fittings, but a targeted technical solution for precise compatibility, ensuring the integrity and safety of the steering system. It is crucial to have the appropriate hydraulic tools and to apply a thread sealant such as Loctite 567 during assembly for reliable sealing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Need help? Contact us

What is the Garmin Verado adapter kit used for?

The Garmin Verado adapter kit (part number 010-11202-02) is designed for integrating Garmin Reactor autopilot hydraulic systems with Mercury Verado engines. It provides the necessary hydraulic fittings to connect the Garmin SmartPump to a Verado steering system, accounting for the presence of the Mercury pump module.

What components are included in the Garmin Verado adapter kit?

The kit includes the following items:

Four hose clampsEight ORFS male to 1/4" NPT male adaptersTwo 1/4" NPT male to 1/4" NPT female adaptersTwo 1/4" NPT male to 1/4" ORFS female adaptersTwo ORFS tee fittingsTwo ORFS ball stop valvesOne barbed return fitting for pump connectorOne 3/8" (9 mm) barbed tee fitting for return hoseOne barbed stop valve

Is this kit an original Garmin product?

Yes, this adapter kit is a Garmin product, as indicated by the product name and company information.

Is the Verado adapter kit supplied with the hydraulic hoses?

No, this kit includes the fittings and valves required to connect the autopilot pump to the system, but it does not include the hydraulic hoses. You must provide the appropriate hydraulic hoses for your installation requirements.

What is the exact part number for this Verado adapter kit?

The exact reference for this Verado adapter kit is 010-11202-02.

Which Verado outboard engines is the Garmin adapter kit compatible with?

This kit is specifically designed to be compatible with Mercury Verado engines.

Which Garmin Reactor autopilot systems are compatible with this kit?

This kit is specifically compatible with Garmin Reactor hydraulic autopilots, such as the Reactor 40 Hydraulic Corepack models with SmartPump or SmartPump v2.

Is this kit compatible with outboard engines other than Mercury Verado?

The adapter kit is specifically designed for integration with Mercury Verado engines. No compatibility with other engine brands is mentioned.

Is this kit required for all Verado steering systems?

Yes, to use a Garmin Reactor SmartPump autopilot system with Mercury Verado engines, you must install the components provided in this kit. It is essential for connecting the Garmin SmartPump to a Verado steering system, due to the presence of the Mercury pump module.

Can I use this kit with a Garmin autopilot that is not a Reactor?

No, this kit is specifically designed for integration with Garmin Reactor hydraulic autopilots.

Which tools are required to install the Verado adapter kit?

For installation, you will need the following tools:

Safety glassesWrenchesHydraulic toolsPhillips and flathead screwdriversMarine sealantThread sealing compound, such as Loctite 567Hydraulic hose (not included in the kit)Mercury steering fluid (not included in the kit)

Is a specific fluid required for the system after installation?

Yes, after installation you must fill the steering pump reservoir with Mercury steering fluid (not included in the kit). You must also bleed the steering system according to the instructions provided with your steering system.

Where should the Shadow Drive™ sensor be installed with this kit?

The Shadow Drive™ sensor must be installed horizontally, as level as possible. It can be installed in the port or starboard hydraulic line. On a twin helm sailboat, the Shadow Drive™ sensor must be located between the T-connector linking the helms and the pump, so that both helms activate the Shadow Drive™ sensor.

Can the existing high-pressure hydraulic hoses be cut or removed?

No, it is imperative not to cut or remove the high-pressure hydraulic line that connects to the "P" connector of the upper helm station or to the "P" or "T" connectors of the lower helm station.

Can the Shadow Drive™ transducer be connected directly to the helm station?

No, you must not connect the Shadow Drive™ sensor directly to the helm station. You must install a length of hydraulic hose between the helm station and the Shadow Drive™ sensor.

How to connect the return hose to the pump with this kit?

You must route the low-pressure return hydraulic hose from the helm station (only the top helm station in dual-helm installations) to the Mercury pump module, then connect it to the autopilot pump. This involves cutting the existing return hose to insert the included T-fitting, then connecting the hose to the SmartPump and securing it with hose clamps. The included barb fitting must be screwed into the SmartPump with thread sealant, then the return hose is connected to it.

Should a sealing product be used for fittings?

Yes, it is recommended to use a thread sealant, such as Loctite 567, when connecting fittings to the pump, the Shadow Drive™ sensor, and the shut-off ball valves.

Does the kit include detailed installation instructions?

Yes, the kit is supplied with installation instructions. For correct installation, you must use these instructions in addition to those provided with the autopilot base pack.

What to do if the hydraulic layout of my boat does not match the diagrams?

If your boat’s steering system does not match any of the hydraulic configurations shown in the manual and you are unsure how to install the pump, contact Garmin product support.

How important is the Mercury pump module in the installation of this kit?

The presence of the Mercury pump module in the Verado steering system is a key consideration. It requires additional steps when installing the autopilot pump and the Shadow Drive™ sensor. This kit is specifically designed to handle this particularity.
