Zusammenfassung:	A water submerged device for generating a force under water. The device includes an enclosure having a piston that drives a ram, the piston dividing the enclosure into closing and opening chambers, the opening chamber connected to the low pressure recipient, and containing a first fluid. The device further includes a low pressure recipient for containing a first fluid having a lower pressure than the first fluid, and in selective fluid communication with the opening chamber of the enclosure via a first valve. In addition, the device includes a control module connected to the enclosure and in selective communication with the opening chamber of the enclosure via a second valve. The first and second valves are controlled so that only one of the low pressure recipient or the control module is in fluid communication with the opening chamber of the enclosure at a time.
