The best possible combination
Choosing the right combination of pump and cylinder can be quite difficult. VETUS pumps and cylinders are fully compatible,
enabling the builder and owner to choose the best combination of price and number of wheel turns lock to lock.
The smaller the pump unit, the lower the price but also the higher the number of turns. However, the choice of cylinder is
always determined by the rudder torque. Please see tables below for determination of the wheel turns.
Specifications
• Available for single and dual station control
• Cylinders are supplied with flexible hose tails, bleed nipples (which accept a quick-release coupling for rapid bleeding) and
a base plate with universal joint and a swivelling rod end
• Axial plunger plumps with 7 plungers
