System Components

BSA hydraulic steering systems are simple and efficient. The basic system consists of three main components:

1. The Helm Unit

The BSA helm pump is an axial piston pump specifically designed for manual steering. It has a built-in lock valve to prevent the steering load from feeding back to the driver. The lock valve will not allow the rudder or drive unit to move until you move it with the steering wheel. The lock valve section of the helm also includes a relief valve. This relief valve provides over-pressure protection for mechanical components and hydraulic hoses and fittings.

2. The Cylinder

The most important differences between the variety of BSA steering systems available is the cylinder selection. The BSA system has a cylinder for most steering applications.

3. Hoses and Tubes

Required to provide a path for the fluid to flow under pressure from the helm pump to the cylinder.
