RE: [CA11] acu 200 and type 2 pump
Now I'm in a bit of a bind. I have 2 Seastar Rams- HC5345-3. Seastar notes they are each 8.34cu in/ 136.6cc each in volume making it 16.38/273.2Cc total. System also has Seastar Power Assist which should not affect the volume issues.

Vendor told me I needed this Type 2 pump due to the volume of the rams, so bought it with the EV-200 System. Made no mention of needing the ACU-400 system.

Now I find out that recommended type 2 pump was wrong. So now looking for a solution.

would this work- Can I use a non-Raymarine autopilot pump such as the Autopilot Pump for Ram Sizes 14 Cu In to 25 Cu In (PUMPHRP17-12)-which is for a Furuno system?

what risks do I run using this type 2 pump with the ACU-200 or going down to the Type one Pump with the ACU-200.

Changing to an ACU-400 is just not an option. Already spent close to 8k in Raymarine Electronics- part of it was to have total integration with Axiom/VHF/Autopilot and soon to be radar. install is not at a standstill due to the wrong pump recommendation by the vendor.
