Whether for new builds or retrofits, EMPH Nautical Solutions provides hydraulic power solutions that are robust, efficient, and purpose-built for life at sea.
DC Power Packs
Traditional DC Electric Motor & Pump Sets
EMPH Nautical Solutions supplies proven DC electric motor and pump sets designed to deliver reliable hydraulic power for a wide range of marine and mobile applications. These systems remain one of the most widely used solutions for onboard hydraulics, offering a simple, robust, and cost-effective method of generating pressure where AC power or engine-driven options are not available.
DC motor pump sets are particularly well suited to battery-powered systems on yachts and workboats, providing straightforward integration with onboard electrical systems. With fixed-speed operation and well-established control methods, they offer dependable performance for essential functions such as swim platforms, sail handling systems, steering auxiliaries, and deck equipment.
Built using marine-grade components and engineered for durability, these systems are designed to withstand harsh operating conditions while maintaining consistent hydraulic output. Their simplicity also makes them easy to service, troubleshoot, and maintain, making them a trusted choice for reliable onboard hydraulics.
EMPH Nautical Solutions’ DC pump sets deliver a balance of performance, affordability, and proven technology—making them a dependable backbone for many marine hydraulic systems.
