Furuno PUMPHRP11-24 Type Autopilot Pump - 24V

Discover Reliable Hydraulic Power for Your Marine Autopilot

Enhance your boating experience with a robust hydraulic pump designed specifically for demanding marine environments. This 24V autopilot pump delivers a powerful 1.1 cubic inches per second flow rate, making it ideal for steering rams up to 13 cubic inches in volume. Whether you're navigating open waters or handling choppy conditions, it provides the precise control needed for smooth, effortless autopilot operation.

Built to withstand the rigors of saltwater exposure and constant vibration, this pump ensures long-lasting performance without compromising on speed or efficiency. Boaters trust it for its ability to maintain consistent pressure, reducing wear on your hydraulic steering system and minimizing downtime during critical voyages.

Standout Features That Set It Apart

• High-Flow Design: 1.1 cu in/sec displacement pumps fluid quickly for rapid response times, perfect for larger vessels or systems requiring instant helm adjustments.
• 24VDC Operation: Compatible with modern marine electrical systems, offering efficient power usage and reliable startup in varying battery conditions.
• Reversible Pump Action: Seamlessly switches directions for port and starboard steering, integrating flawlessly with Furuno's Navpilot series and similar autopilots.
• Compact and Durable Build: Corrosion-resistant materials handle harsh marine conditions, with a rugged exterior that resists impacts from gear or waves.
• Quiet Operation: Minimal noise during operation keeps your cabin peaceful, even at high speeds.

These features combine to deliver superior hydraulics that outperform standard pumps in endurance testing, ensuring you stay on course without interruptions.

Perfect Fit for a Range of Vessels and Systems

Engineered for hydraulic steering setups on sailboats, powerboats, and fishing vessels up to certain displacement limits, this pump excels in applications where precision meets power. It's commonly paired with type 1 hydraulic rams but scales well for systems up to 13 cubic inches, providing ample capacity for twin-rudder configurations or heavier displacement hulls.

Check your existing ram volume and autopilot controller specs for seamless integration—its universal mounting options make retrofitting straightforward on most setups from leading marine brands.

Unmatched Performance in Real-World Conditions

Users report exceptional holding power in following seas and quick recovery from broaches, thanks to the pump's optimized flow dynamics. It maintains steady pressure under load, preventing the sluggish response common in lesser pumps. Energy-efficient design means less strain on your house batteries during extended passages, while thermal protection prevents overheating during prolonged use.

In independent tests, it demonstrated 20% faster cycle times compared to competitors, translating to tighter tracking and reduced fuel consumption from overcorrections.

Installation Insights for Optimal Results

Mount the pump in a dry, accessible location below deck, ensuring rigid plumbing connections to avoid air ingress. Use high-quality hydraulic fluid compatible with marine systems, and bleed thoroughly after install to eliminate bubbles. Pair with a properly sized reservoir for best results, and always follow manufacturer torque specs on fittings to prevent leaks.

Pro tip: Position it close to the ram to minimize hose length, enhancing response and reducing pressure drop—common tweaks that extend service life significantly.

Maintenance for Peak Longevity

Regular checks are simple: Inspect seals annually, top off fluid as needed, and monitor for unusual noises indicating wear. Flush the system every two years with recommended cleaners to prevent varnish buildup. With proper care, expect years of trouble-free service, far outpacing generic alternatives.

Why Boaters Rely on This Autopilot Pump

In a sea of options, this pump stands out for its proven track record in professional fleets and weekend warriors alike. It delivers the reliability that lets you focus on the horizon, not the helm. Backed by Furuno's engineering excellence, it's the smart upgrade for anyone serious about autopilot performance.
