Hydraulic cylinders for the subsea industry often work under varying water pressure

Subsea equipment requires great resilience

Extreme environments increase the requirements for the correct components and materials. Salt water and high water pressure continually affect applications in their daily functions. Corrosion and wear will therefore be an additional challenge for the hydraulic cylinders, which perform important functions under the surface of the ocean. Our hydraulic cylinders are often important components in, for example, remote control (ROV) handling equipment and mini excavators for subsea work, for drilling equipment on the seabed, for the tensioning of anchoring wires and as a damper function for large structures that are sunk down and placed on the seabed.

Trust in reliable operations

Equipment located beneath the sea’s surface must operate without unwanted standstill. Your hydraulic cylinders should still function even after possibly long periods of inactivity in deep water. The applications are often located in places that make access difficult and time-consuming if an accident occurs and unexpected service and repair needs to be done. If a cylinder fails, when it is finally in operation, it often incurs considerable costs and losses. Therefore, a high quality solution is worth its weight in gold.
