Hydraulic Reservoirs
Harken offers pressurized carbon fiber/composite
reservoirs and vented blow-molded reservoirs for
manual hydraulic systems.
Pressurized Reservoirs
With a 20-liter version that weighs just 3.8 lb (1.736 kg),
Harken’s pressurized carbon fiber/composite reservoirs
are among the lightest in the existence. They are installed
in the bilge rather than at pump level for a low center of
gravity. Reservoirs include a one-way return line check
valve and supply line shutoff valve, both with aluminum
-6JIC fittings. A high-quality regulator maintains smooth
and consistent oil flow.
A graduated level gauge and translucent sections in
the reservoir walls make it easy to monitor oil levels.
Pressurized reservoirs require very little maintenance
and are cleaner than those that use ambient air pressure.
Custom sizes are available.
Vented Reservoirs
These 2- and 4-liter blow-molded reservoirs are used
for smaller Grand Prix systems and production yachts.
Reservoirs feature a vented cap to stabilize tank pressure
and prevent leaks. Translucent materials allow oil levels
to be easily monitored. 3/8 inch (10 mm) hose barbs are
welded to the reservoir for supply and return hoses.
