Simrad AP70 MK2 AC80S Solenoid Autopilot IMO Pack

Description

The Simrad AP70 MK2 AC80S Solenoid Autopilot IMO Pack eliminates dangerous course deviations and tracking drift on commercial ocean-going vessels, oil tankers, tugboats, offshore supply vessels, and mega yachts. Engineered with a highly versatile 12 Volts DC or 24 Volts DC adaptive layer, this commercial steering package maintains precise ship handling across solenoid steering gear and constant running pump configurations. Operators and fleet captains can navigate complex shipping channels or turbulent offshore waters safely, relying on automated helm algorithms to handle massive mechanical vessel stress.

Constructed with an IPX6 Front Panel Facia Panel Rigging Guard, the resilient display unit prevents water ingress from heavy sea spray during high-traffic industrial deployments. The heavy-duty AC80S Solenoid Course Computer features a 4 channel solenoid driver output to coordinate twin independent steering systems safely without triggering power faults. Integrating this Wheelmark approved commercial-grade navigation bundle secures multi-million dollar maritime assets, protected by a standard 2-Year limited warranty policy to eliminate unexpected mechanical maintenance downtime.
