Installing a Teleflex Capilano Steering System on a Reactor™ 40 Autopilot

Teleflex makes a steering system called Capilano with a Uniflow Valve. The Uniflow valve is mounted close to the steering cylinder of the boat. This can also be referred to as a Teleflex helm that is adjustable.

The pump and Shadow Drive™ sensor of any Garmin hydraulic autopilot in this system, will both need to be installed between the Uniflow Valve and the steering cylinder. This may be difficult as most of the time the Uniflow Valve is mounted very close to the steering cylinder.
