Rudder minimum and maximum oil pressure
Hello,
My Helm/Rudder oil cylinder internal check vale is starting to lick . Independent of the
autopilot check valve and before I buy a new cylinder, I’m thinking in adding two oil check valves in both, the port and strb. high pressure lines after the
wheel.
I have found a lot of check valves with a lot of specifications about cracking (min) and maximum pressure. I suppose that the
rudder system is from min. 3-5psi cracking and about 2500 to 3500 psi maximum oil pressure, but I like to confirm it.
