Standard 5-Step VRC & Hydraulic Actuator Overhaul SOP

Our Class-approved technicians execute this standardized procedural workflow to ensure first-time compliance with attending Class surveyors and Indian Port State Control (PSC) inspectors:

  1. Hydraulic Power Unit (HPU) Pressure & Fluid Analysis

    Test accumulator pre-charge nitrogen pressures, system relief valves, and sample hydraulic oil for particulate contamination.

  2. Solenoid Valve Block & Directional Spool Servicing

    Overhaul 24VDC solenoid directional valves, clean internal pilot orifices, and replace hardened Viton seals.

  3. Valve Actuator End-Position Calibration (Open/Closed)

    Calibrate 4-20mA potentiometer and inductive proximity position feedback transmitters on hydraulic actuators.

  4. Radar / Electro-Pneumatic Tank Level Transmitter Tuning

    Zero-calibrate radar tank level gauges and bubble-type pressure transmitters against manual sounding tape references.

  5. Emergency Manual Hand-Pump Functional Verification

    Test emergency local hand-pump operation to ensure vital sea suction and overboard valves can be operated during blackout.
