Seastar Solutions DC1000 User Manual

2
The SeaStar DC Power Unit is a self contained steering system
designed to provide an alternative to existing power steering
systems. Unlike conventional power steering systems which require
engine/pulley driven pumps, oil coolers, oil reservoir, filter and
relief control valves, the DC Power Unit is an integrated power
steering solution requiring only the DC Power Unit, a steering
cylinder and one, or multiple, helm pumps. The end result will be
less power consumption and very little heat generation. Installation
of the SeaStar DC Power Unit requires fewer parts, less installation
time and easy troubleshooting, making it an all around user friendly
system. With the built in semi-automated purge system, the
SeaStar DC Power Unit will help the installer bleed ALL of the air
out of the steering system in minimal time.
The DC Power unit incorporates an autopilot pump as well, for a
cleaner, more reliable installation than using external pumps.
