B & G Hydraulic Ram T0 12V
Model: 000-13902-001The RAM T0 Hydraulic linear actuator combines a cylinder, pump, motor, clutch, and reservoir in a pre-filled, sealed unit. Designed to be used on vessels fitted with mechanical primary steering that can be back-driven. When the clutch is disengaged the cylinder is free and moves with the primary steering. To operate the unit in autopilot mode the course computer energizes the clutch solenoid coil and runs the bidirectional motor to extend and retract the ram. Internal relief valves protect the unit and its mountings from rudder strikes, grounding, etc

The B&G Hydraulic Ram T0 12V Drive is a self-contained linear actuator designed for marine vessels with back-drivable mechanical primary steering systems. This unit integrates a cylinder, pump, motor, clutch, and reservoir into a pre-filled, sealed assembly. It is intended for use in autopilot configurations, where a course computer energizes the clutch and controls the bidirectional motor to extend or retract the ram. When the clutch is disengaged, the cylinder moves freely with the vessel's primary steering. Internal relief valves are incorporated to safeguard the unit and its mounting points from potential damage due to rudder strikes or grounding incidents. Key specifications include a 12V DC power requirement, an IP67 ingress protection rating, and a maximum intermittent thrust of 350 kg. The part number for this model is 000-13902-001. This drive provides a practical solution for integrating autopilot functionality into compatible steering systems.
This hydraulic ram is designed for use on vessels equipped with mechanical primary steering systems that can be back-driven. It integrates with an autopilot course computer to control steering.
The unit is a pre-filled, sealed assembly that combines a cylinder, pump, motor, clutch, and reservoir. It does not specify additional mounting hardware or cables beyond the clutch connection type.
The B&G Hydraulic Ram T0 12V Drive has a maximum intermittent thrust of 350 kg. It can sustain 60 kg at a 25% duty cycle.
The system is designed for ISO VG10 to VG40 hydraulic mineral fluid to ISO 6743-4 HVS. Suitable commercial fluids include Fuchs Renolin B 15 HV1 and Seastar HA5430.
