Electrohydraulic steering gear with double-acting cylinders

During the last decades, Brusselle developed Steering Gear with double-acting cylinders. These Steering Gear are more compact and cylinders are fully redundant. These steering gear can be delivered in both only hydraulic (PTO) and (electro-)hydraulic versions. Single and twin rudder types are available. 

All steering gear can be delivered with a number of options - electric starters, control, alarm and monitoring systems, upper-rudder carrier bearing and electric rudder-angle indicator systems.

Rudder torques up to 800 kNm and rudder angles up to 2x65° are achievable by this Steering Gear type. Single and double rudder steering gear arrangements are available.

Classification requirements are applicable according to Ship Classification. (BV, LROS, DNV, GL, CCS...)

Hydraulic Power Units for Steering Gear

Hydraulic Power Units for any Brusselle Steering Gear are custom built, according to applicable class requirements (BV, LROS, DNV, GL, CCS...). Where electric driven pumps are installed, electric switchboards can be delivered, where start/stop commando's and applicable alarms are processed.
