Technical data from manufacturer or class sources · not yet verified by a person
Hydraulic OilMedium

This hydraulic oil motor operates on the principle of rotary vanes, utilizing a specific torque output detailed in the manufacturer's specifications. The Aalborg-OL, manufactured by Alfa Laval Aalborg A/S, is designed for marine applications and boasts DNV approval, as evidenced by model number TAP00001RN found in the DNV approval finder. Common failures observed with this model include leakage in the rotary vane seal, leading to internal bypass, damage to the HPU motor bearings after 30,000+ hours of operation, issues with magnet valve clamps due to oil contamination, and drift in the rudder position feedback system calibration. To ensure optimal performance, Alfa Laval Aalborg A/S recommends keeping a seal kit and solenoid valves readily available, with lead times for these spares ranging from 3 to 8 weeks. Regular maintenance includes hydraulic oil analysis every six months and inspection of the vane seal during docking. Additionally, SOLAS Hard-Over testing (28 seconds) and monthly emergency steering drills are essential for safe operation.

Makers and authorised dealers rarely quote marine equipment without the vessel. With these details we can check availability and prices faster; without them we may have to ask first, which can cost a few days. If you cannot share the vessel, a photo of the equipment’s rating plate does the same job — send it as a reply to our confirmation e-mail.
