Seastar Power Assist PA1200-2
Seastar Power Assist PA1200-2 steering dramatically reduces steering effort in heavy or high torque
applications. Assisted steering delivers exceptional performance and unparalleled
levels of safety and comfort, even in the most extreme conditions. Just simply install into your existing Seastar Hydraulic Steering.
Boat operators are asking for increased comfort and lighter steering loads. These were the driving forces behind the design of SeaStar and SeaStar PRO Power Assist.
With the Marine Industry continually introducing heavier outboard engines, higher horsepower engines, more aggressive propellers, bigger/faster boats.
This new and innovative product is highly recommended on any 200HP and above outboard application to give your boat the same, easy steering you are accustomed to in your car.
How Seastar Power Assist PA1200-2 works
SeaStar P/A (Power Assist) steering uses an electronically controlled hydraulic pump to provide “Power” for your SeaStar Hydraulic Steering system.
The SeaStar P/A system is comprised of two circuits: a hand operated manual system, which is the control element, and a hydraulic power pump, which is the working element.
The manual system consists of a helm pump with internal relief and check valves, as well as a built in reservoir. Two steering lines and a compensating line which provide a routing for fluid to transmit through the system, and a steering cylinder which moves the steering device on the boat from side to side.
The power system, is an electronically controlled hydraulic pump that boosts the fluid being sent from the helm pump to the steering cylinder (this will result in much easier effort at the wheel—even when under heavy loads). A compensating line connects the P/A unit to the helm pump, allowing the P/A unit to share fluid with the helm reservoir.
The SeaStar P/A is compatible with multiple steering stations, and with the use of an autopilot. In the event of a P/A loss or failure the hydraulic system will automatically revert to a manual hydraulic system.
