Power Assisted Steering Systems
Specifically designed for luxury vessels getting regular and intensive use, LS range of Power Assisted Steering Systems is designed in total compliance with the strictest norms applying to marine equipment.
The recommended solutions for 185 kpm to 2.000 kpm rudder torque are suitable to equip 15 to 40 metre vessels.
Absolute security comes first: steering is still possible even in case of electrical failure.
Features such as smoothness, accuracy and reduced number of wheel turns give LS power assisted steering systems unequalled comfort.
In general, the basic setup of an electro-hydraulic steering system includes:
- Receivers – cylinders with linear position sensors.
- Transmitters – electric wheels, FFU or NFU joysticks, selectors.
- Programmable logic controller with or without customizable multifunction screen display.
- Clearly labelled electrical harness with connecting pins.
- Hydraulic power pack and oil tank equipped with filters, oil level and temperature alarms.
- Proportional hydraulic distributor with independent circuits or hydraulic distribution block.
- Set of hydraulic flexible tubes with swaged fittings.
In operating condition, the programmable logic controller continuously analyses the information sent by the cylinder position sensors and relays the orders from the transmitters.
It manages the position and the displacement of each cylinder by means of the hydraulic power pack and the hydraulic distribution system.
