The model 7171 is manufactured in all
bronze and stainless steel, and is suited for installation
anywhere on the ship. Its watertight construction will not
allow seaspray to enter the unit.
This device is a full
follow-up rudder control. It is equipped with a detent in mid
handle position; the straight ahead position. Moving the
control to either port or starboard will cause the rudder to
follow proportionately. In order to complete a system of this
nature, a feedback device connected with a link to the rudder
stock, such as our Model 7174, and an electronic interface
will then give the operator complete control over the
rudder. This is possible at all times since the control and
the 7171 correspond with the rudder
position.
The 7171 is available with
2 Microswitches (1 per side), 2 potentiometers and 2 Trim
Pots. The 7171 is also available as a jog lever with 2
Microswitches per side.
