Raymarine EV-150 Evolution Core Pack - No Drive T70407
Evolution EV-150 Hydraulic Autopilot System Pack
The Evolution
EV-150 Hydraulic Autopilot System Pack is a complete autopilot-in-a-box kit that
is ready to install on many popular fishing and cruising powerboats with
hydraulic steering. The system comes complete with our p70Rs autopilot
controller, EV1 Sensor Core, ACU150 Actuator Control Unit, Type 1 Hydraulic
Pump, and an Evolution autopilot cabling kit.
Engineered for simplicity,
Raymarine's award-winning Evolution autopilots eliminate the need for
complicated set up and calibration. Thanks to the intelligent 9-axis EV sensor
core, the autopilot automatically evolves and adapts to your vessel's steering
characteristics without any user adjustments. The result is precise and
confident course keeping, regardless of vessel speed or sea
conditions.
The Evolution EV-150 system also employs Raymarine's patented
Hydro-Balance™ technology which delivers superior autopilot performance for
hydraulically steered boats, particularly those with outboard motors and
rudder-reference less systems. Hydro-Balance automatically compensates for
hydraulic system elasticity, steering system asymmetry, and torque steer to keep
your boat on-course at trolling speed, cruising speed, and all-out running.
Anglers will also love the Evolution Autopilot's built-in trolling
patterns. Let the autopilot work the boat while you prep bait, set your lines
and adjust your spread.
The system is also equipped with Raymarine
latest Evolution TrackIQ™ algorithms which deliver tighter track-keeping and
faster track acquisition. It also uses information on vessel pitch, roll, yaw
and heave to stabilize GPS navigation data like course over ground, speed over
ground and cross track error for the best possible tracking to waypoints and
routes.
The Raymarine EV-150 Hydraulic Autopilot System Pack is the
ideal autopilot for small to medium sized hydraulically steered vessels with a
steering ram capacity between 4.9 cu. in. (80cc) and 14.0 cu in. (230cc). The
system is for 12-volt DC electrical systems only.

Hydro-Balance™ technology for Evolution Autopilots
Introducing Hydro-Balance™
Hydro-Balance™ Technology is an all new, patent-pending software update that
delivers superior autopilot performance on boats with hydraulic steering, and
particularly on boats with rudder reference-less steering and outboard motors.
Hydro-Balance™ Technology is an all new, patent-pending software update that

Hydro-Balance is available for FREE, to all Evolution owners
It’s easy to add Hydro-Balance™ Technology to any existing Evolution™
autopilot system via a simple software upgrade.
What does Hydro-Balance™ do?
Hydro-Balance’s powerful algorithms can automatically detect and
compensate for 3 common challenges
Challenge: Hydraulic System
Elasticity (or Flex)
is caused by the air bubbles trapped in the
boat’s steering system components creating variation in the movements of the
system. Elasticity changes the overall volume of the hydraulic system and
makes it difficult or impossible for conventional autopilots without a
rudder reference transducer to accurately measure the actual rudder (or
motor) angle.
Solution: Evolution’s
new Hydro-Balance algorithm can quickly and accurately gauge the amount of
elasticity when the system is engaged, and then compensate for it
automatically. This ensures that boats without a rudder-reference track
straight without any heading oscillation or drive hunting. It also improves
the accuracy of the virtual rudder angle display on the boats autopilot
controllers and rudder data displays.
Challenge: Steering System Asymmetry
caused by Unbalanced Hydraulic Cylinders cause the boat’s rudders or
outboards to turn faster in one direction than the other.
Solution: Evolution’s new
Hydro-Balance algorithm figures out the difference in fill-rate between a
port-turn and a starboard-turn, and compensates accordingly. This makes for
straight tracking without any over-correction or oscillation.
Challenge: Asymmetrical Torque Steer
(aka Propeller Walk)
causes the bow of the boat to veer to port or
starboard at trolling speeds and during rapid acceleration.
Solution: Evolution’s
Hydro-Balance algorithm, in combination with its ultra-sensitive EV Sensor
Core can sense the side-force caused by propeller walk and factor it in to
the boat’s autopilot steering to ensure the heading is rock-solid during
trolling, acceleration, and on occasions where the boat’s engines are not
turning at the same speed (on twin or multi-engine vessels.)
Race, cruise or fish - Evolution will take command
No fuss, easy to install and robust - the Evolution autopilot combines
Raymarine's autopilot expertise, FLIR Systems' R&D, and advanced aerospace
guidance technology to create Evolution Ai control algorithms that deliver a new
level of accurate autopilot control.
Key Features
Automagic™ - No lengthy calibration procedures to
perform. No compass calibration required. Plug and play connections
Easy to install - Freedom from the restrictions of
conventional heading sensors. EV sensor core can be installed above or below
deck. Install upside-down or off the vessel's centre line.
Aerospace technology - 9-axis precision monitoring of
pitch, roll, yaw and heading
Fuel efficient - Evolution autopilots steer so accurately
they will save fuel and get you to your destination faster
The EV Sensor Core
At the centre of every Evolution system is the intelligent EV sensor core, a
9-axis sensor that monitors vessel motion in all three dimensions. The
innovative EV sensor core combines advanced solid-state sensors with the
Evolution autopilot processor into a single easy-to-install housing.
Mount the EV sensor core above or below decks, the rugged enclosure is fully
sealed and built to IPX6 and IPX7 waterproofing and submersion standards.
EV Sensor Core Benefits
Precision monitoring of heading, pitch, roll, and yaw allowing the
autopilot to evolve instantly as sea conditions and vessel dynamics change.
Flexible installation options. Mount above or below deck.
Simple SeaTalkng connectivity to the control head and ACU.
Solid state sensor technology delivers dynamic accuracy to within 2
degrees in all conditions.
Auto-compensation for on board magnetic fields and reliable heading

Unit (M81120.)
The ACU-150 connects to the SeaTalkng network for communication with its
other peripherals. It also has connections for an optional Rudder Reference Unit
(sold separately.) The ACU-150 works on 12-volt DC systems only.
