Description
Autopilot Check Valve Kit
This check valve kit is used with the 1.2L and 2.0L autopilot pumps to isolate them from the steering system when the autopilot is not active. Check valves to prevent slow pressure leak down through the pump while disengaged.
Boats with rudder trim tabs (outboard or rudder) that are properly adjusted do not need this check valve kit.
Compatible Devices:
- Reactor 40 Hydraulic Autopilot with GHC 20 Autopilot Instrument
- Reactor 40 Hydraulic Autopilot with GHC 50 Autopilot Instrument
- Reactor 40 Hydraulic Autopilot without GHC Autopilot Instrument
The Garmin Autopilot Check Valve Kit is designed to enhance the performance and reliability of your Reactor 40 Hydraulic Autopilot system. Compatible with models equipped with GHC 20 or GHC 50 Autopilot Instruments, as well as systems without an autopilot instrument, this kit helps prevent slow pressure leak down through the autopilot pump when the system is disengaged. This ensures consistent autopilot operation and reduces the need for manual pressure adjustments, contributing to safer and more efficient boat navigation. The check valves work by isolating the autopilot pump from the steering system when autopilot is inactive, which preserves hydraulic pressure and maintains system responsiveness. This kit is particularly beneficial for boats with properly adjusted rudder trim tabs, whether outboard or rudder-mounted, where it can prevent unintended pressure loss and improve overall autopilot performance. Installation is straightforward, and the kit integrates seamlessly with existing hydraulic systems, making it a reliable upgrade for maintaining optimal autopilot functionality. Crafted by Garmin, this part ensures compatibility with a range of marine autopilot configurations and enhances the durability of your hydraulic steering setup, providing peace of mind during long voyages or precise navigation tasks.
