DESCRIPTION The "PC+" constant running type gear pumps are driven by 12 or 24 Volt DC permanent magnet motors . Flow reversal is achieved by switching a double acting solenoid valve. Incorporated in the design are pilot operated check valves that prevent the pump being back driven by the manual steering system.
INSTALLATION All ports are G1/4 (BSP) parallel threaded. Use only bonded rubber/metal washers to seal the fittings. Do not use tapered adapters, sealing compound or P.T.F.E tape. Ports marked 'A' and 'B' are the service line connections to the ram, the pipe work and connections must be suitable for a 100 bar working pressure minimum rating.
COMMISSIONING CAUTION! Be aware of the danger of moving linkages and the risk of entrapment during this procedure. Bleed the system according to the helm pump manufacturers instruc- tions. To aid clearing air from the electric pump please note the orien- tation of the hydraulic/electrical connections - See installation data Ref.
