MODIFICATION OF CYLINDER VHM 63 DT C345
|
 |
In a view to standardization of our cylinder range
and components, we have designed a new VHM 63 DT C345 model.
The modifications mainly concern the central bearing and the cylinder
end caps with the reduction of the cylinder overall height and length
and an improved swiveling capacity of the central bearing.
The technical specifications remain identical to the previous model
which will no longer be commercialized from the beginning of May 2010.

VENDEE GLOBE

The
tireless crew member !
When the Vendée Globe
fleet left Les Sables d’Olonne, more than 20 boats out of 30 were
fitted with LS hydraulic linear drive units.

Linear drives
L&S 40ST16 and L&S 50ST20
used on IMOCA 60 are the same as the 20,000 hydraulic pilots fitted on sailing boats
for more than 10 years.
After checking the 40ST16 linear drive used by Michel Desjoyeaux
during 90% of the racing period, it was established that the
drive could have done a second round the world race without
maintenance required! |

NEW HYDRAULIC STEERING SYSTEM
FOR OUTBOARD MOTORS : LS 350 PRO
|
June 2007
Validation of LS 350 PRO steering system on a 350 HP
motor
Configuration: 1 cylinder with 1 YAMAHA V8 350 HP single
motor
Boat: WHITE SHARK
1 cylinder VHM 350 PRO, 1 pump 40HB+LV (40cc/turn)
Responsive steering with 4.9 turns lock to lock
March 2008
Validation of LS 350 PRO steering system on 700 HP with
twin counter rotating engines.
Configuration: 1 cylinder with 2 YAMAHA V8 350 HP motors
Boat: BWA 34’’ OPEN (maximum speed recorded: 60 knots)
1 cylinder VHM 350 PRO, 1 tie rod "PRO", 1 pump 26HB+LV
(26cc/turn)
Very smooth steering, 7.5 turns lock to lock
|

 |
Steering is smooth and accurate in all
navigational conditions: tight curves,
8-shaped curves, curves at 40 knots and
speeding at 60 knots (maximum speed of the
boat).
The pilot can easily steer the boat with one
hand and use the other hand for trim and
gas. |
|
|
|
As soon as we were informed about the
launching of the new YAMAHA V8 350 HP motor,
we started working on the design of cylinder
350 PRO.
With 40% increase of the cylinder power
compared with the 300 PRO cylinder,
unrivalled smoothness and comfort are
attained.
With 7.5 turns lock to lock, the
configuration for TWIN 350 is perfect.
|
|
|
|
|
We would like to thank the
technical staff at YAMAHA Europe for the tests carried
out in Marseille.
Special thanks go to BAT MARINE in Cap Ferret for their
professionalism and kindness during the tests with twin
motorisation on BWA. |
