22275076 Pump Piston | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

🔧 Product Description

The strength required to steer a boat with a hydraulic steering system is inversely proportional to the number of turns of the wheel lock-to-lock. Wheel turns are determined by the ratio between the cylinder volume, the pump displacement and the free movement of the steering device. A large cylinder volume with a small pump displacement gives more wheel turns; a small cylinder volume with a large pump displacement gives fewer. Fewer wheel turns means quicker steering response but more effort; more wheel turns means slower response but less effort. The helm pumps are available in three displacement sizes - 28 cc, 33 cc and 39 cc - each in three mountings: front mount, rear mount and tilt mount. This is the 28 cc tilt mount pump, with 5 pistons, a 70 bar relief valve setting and a maximum wheel diameter of 508 mm.

🔌 Function

Converts steering wheel rotation into pressurised hydraulic oil flow to the steering cylinder, on a helm whose angle can be adjusted.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Heavy, notchy or inconsistent steering
• Wheel turning without the drive following, from internal bypass
• Hydraulic oil weeping at the shaft seal or the port fittings
• Helm will not hold its set tilt angle
• Air drawn into the circuit giving a spongy helm

🛠️ Service Notes

• Budget for tilt mechanism 22299003 as well - a tilt mount pump cannot be installed without it
• Check the wheel diameter: tilt mount pumps are rated to 508 mm, so a wheel sized for a fixed helm may be too large
• The same 28 cc pump is 22275070 in front mount and 22275073 in rear mount
• Tilt mechanism 22299003 is required and must be ordered separately
• Displacement and mounting together are the product: the same 28 cc displacement is also listed as 22275070 and 22275073, and the other tilt mount pumps are 22275077 and 22275078
• Cylinder volume and pump displacement together set how many turns the wheel takes lock to lock
