Professional Evolution Autopilot Performance for Mid-Size Hydraulic Steering Systems

The Raymarine Type 2 Hydraulic Pump delivers precision autopilot control for boats with traditional hydraulic steering systems. Engineered specifically for vessels with 9.8-21 cubic inch (160-350cc) hydraulic steering rams, this reversing pump integrates seamlessly with Evolution autopilot systems to provide reliable hands-free steering in all marine conditions.

Advanced Evolution Autopilot Integration

Designed to work exclusively with Raymarine's Evolution autopilot systems, the Type 2 pump connects directly to your boat's hydraulic steering lines and allows the autopilot to control steering by managing hydraulic fluid flow. The pump receives commands from the Evolution Actuator Control Unit (ACU), delivering precise steering adjustments that adapt to changing sea conditions.
