Power Hydraulics

VETUS hydraulic systems provide an excellent solution for transferring the power of a ‘prime mover’ engine to user devices around the boat, by harnessing the flow of high-pressure fluid moving through flexible hoses or rigid tubes. The prime mover could be a main propulsion engine, the engine of a diesel generator, or a ‘powerpack’ engine dedicated to powering the hydraulic system. A user device is any item or system of mechanical equipment, including bow and stern thrusters, windlasses, capstans, winches, cranes, hatch lifters, roll stabilizers and power steering.
