HYDRAULIC TANKS
The chart below provides a guideline for tank types for systems including thrusters, although this will be reviewed by your VETUS
Power Hydraulics support engineer in developing the equipment list for your system. In most circumstances, all other devices will be
covered if the tank is big enough for the thrusters.

* No manifold/valve block or valves can be mounted on the top of the HP tank
** This weight or dimension does not include valves, blocks or manifolds, as these are assembled to each customer’s order
*** It is possible, with a mounting plate, to install a manifold and valves on the front of the HP tank, but those dimensions are not included here
The weights and dimensions provided in this chart are approximate and will vary with each tank, manifold and valve assembly, but for a successful
installation, it is essential that adequate space and support is planned and designed into the engine room for the tank assembly and hydraulic pumps.
Manifold for additional control units Hydraulic oil
An extension of the basic manifold block. Required We recommend the use of the following hydraulic fluids:
if more than 5 solenoid control devices are installed. VETUS Hydraulic oil HT (HLP ISO-VG46).
Includes additional electrical connection box.
