1200 psi Hydrastar Hydraulic Electric Brake Actuator
1200 psi Hydrastar Electric Hydraulic Disc Brake Actuator
1200 psi Hydrastar electric hydraulic disc brake actuator generation 7 suits boat tandem trailers from 2000kg to 3200kg.
How to Select the Correct Actuator
- 1000 PSI Actuators are suitable for trailers under 2000kg (Couplemate does not sell this model)
- 1200 PSI Actuators are ideal for trailers UP TO 3200kg
- 1600 PSI Actuators are suitable for trailers UP TO 4500kg
The brake controller controls the maximum hydraulic pressure applied to the brakes.
The Hydrastar actuator pump requires a 12-volt DC Tekonsha P2 or P3 hard-wired controller. Check with your brake controller supplier for suitability.
The Tekonsha iPrimus is not suitable when used with hydrastar controllers.
An electric over-hydraulic actuator requires an electric brake controller to send a signal to work a hydraulic pump actuator. Hydraulic brakes are used on boat trailers weighing over 2000kg.
