Volvo IPS smartpilot

[Hank496]

We just replaced our E120W MFDs and S3G Volvo IPS autopilot with two new Axiom Pros and EVO autopilot package. I’d like to find homes for the used equipment rather than scrapping it. The MFDs and other components are easy enough. The question is what components of the autopilot are generic (can be used for non Volvo applications)? I know the control head is, as is the miscellaneous stuff like junction boxes and cables. Are the DPU and S3G usable on other platforms?

Thanks

Hello Hank496,

That DPU and IPS course computer will only work with certain Volvo IPS. The best home for it would be someone with the same boat or engine package that needs a spare replacement. There are also legacy equipment resellers that may be interested in those also.
