Hydraulic drive motor can be used as the alternative to an electric motor, and hydraulic power pack with electric driven pump and starter to be required as power source.
A hydraulic thruster System offers an économie advantage as the possibility to run several Systems on board from a centralized hydraulic power source. This will save cost compared to running ail items with individual power packs. Equipment that is often powered by a centralized hydraulic System includes windlasses, stabilizers, winches, crânes, furling Systems and lifting mechanisms. There are many different ways of designing hydraulic Systems. Side-Power hydraulic Systems are designed to provide outstanding performance and flexibility to efficiently support any on-board hydraulic equipment that it makes sense to power from a centralized hydraulic System.
