Octopus Boat Autopilot Pump (MPN: OCTAF2024)

Advanced piston pump technology for precise steering control.

The Octopus Boat Autopilot Pump is designed for use with most hydraulically steered boats, offering a reliable solution for steering automation. Utilizing patented piston pump technology, this pump delivers over twice the hydraulic output per watt compared to standard hydraulic gear pumps. The unique design minimizes oil leakage, ensuring accurate positioning of the rudder and reducing the need for frequent course corrections, which in turn enhances battery efficiency.

With a flow rate ranging from 1.2 liters to 2 liters per minute and a cylinder capacity of 15 to 30 cubic inches, the Octopus pump can be easily configured to meet the specific performance needs of various vessels. The floor mount design allows for straightforward installation, while the integrated shut-off valve facilitates easy servicing without the need to drain the steering system. This feature simplifies maintenance and enhances the overall user experience.

Leading autopilot manufacturers prefer Octopus pumps for their non-RFB pilot systems, eliminating the need for a Rudder Feedback unit. This advancement not only streamlines installation but also ensures that the rudder is consistently returned to the desired position, providing sharper steering and improved control on the water.
