Hydraulic drive motor can be used as the alternative to an electric motor, and hydraulic power pack with electric driven pump and starter to be required as power source.
A hydraulic thruster system offers an economic advantage as the possibility to run several systems on board from a centralized hydraulic power source. This will save cost compared to running all items with individual power packs. Equipment that is often powered by a centralized hydraulic system includes windlasses, stabilizers, winches, cranes, furling systems and lifting mechanisms. There are many different ways of designing hydraulic systems. Side-Power hydraulic systems are designed to provide outstanding performance and flexibility to efficiently support any on-board hydraulic equipment that it makes sense to power from a centralized hydraulic system.
