sterring hose working pressure

On sea star pro (kevlar reinforced) the working pressure is 1500 psi
If you use hydraulic steering pump like: H 5770 , H 5771,H 5772 H 5773, H 5774,H 5778, H5779 H5290, The relief valve setting is 1500 psi.
On other pump like H 5269 the relief valve pressure is 1000PSI.
In fact 1500 psi WP on steering hydraulic hose is a safe option....
