Soft-shift for PRM gearboxes
PRM gearboxes are renowned for their quality and reliability, however in some applications and/or circumstances they can be slightly abrupt and noisy when gear changes are made and a transmission ‘jolt’ maybe experienced. The Beta Marine ‘Soft-shift’ option slows down the gear engagement time which provides a smooth and silent transition between forward, neutral & reverse. Suitable for PRM 260, 280, 500, 750 and 1000 models, the kit comprises a specially machined steel plate with two pre-filled
hydraulic accumulators; that fit between the valve block and the gearbox housing - replacement gaskets and longer studs are required & included. The benefits for this kit are: • No abrupt transmission engagement. • Reduced drive-train stress. • Reduced noise, particularly relevant for work boats, ferries, etc...
