Octopus OCTAF202417141 Reversing Piston Pump for Marine Autopilots - 10-31 ci Cylinder, Single Unit
✔️ High-efficiency reversing piston pump with 10-31 ci cylinder, inline shut-off valves, adjustable flow, and precise ram control for autopilot systems.

The Octopus OCTAF202417141 reversing piston pump is a compact, high-performance hydraulic pump designed for marine autopilot systems. It is typically used on sailboats and mid-size yachts to drive the rudder actuator with exact ram positioning, delivering faster, cleaner steering with reduced battery drain.

✅ TWICE THE POWER: The piston design delivers over twice the hydraulic output per watt vs gear pumps.
✅ HALF THE POWER CONSUMPTION: Precise ram positioning minimizes corrections and energy use.
✅ PINPOINT ACCURACY: Ram returns to required position, often removing the need for a Rudder Feedback unit.
✅ INBUILT SHUT-OFF VALVES: Isolates the pump for service without draining the steering circuit.
✅ ADJUSTABLE FLOW RATE: Fine-tune hard-over time to match your boat’s cylinder ram and sailing conditions.
💡 What is a reversing piston pump used for in marine autopilot systems? Here's a concise explanation. - Provides precise ram control by directly driving the hydraulic cylinder with a piston, minimizing leakage. - Improves efficiency by delivering higher hydraulic output per watt and reducing power waste. - Simplifies installation with built-in shut-off valves and fewer components like Rudder Feedback units. - Helps extend battery life on vessels with power constraints. This handy setup keeps autopilot performance strong and energy-smart across varied seas.
