Damcos™ Control Cabinet
Centralizing control of your marine Valve Remote Control system is simple with the Damcos Control Cabinet. Each cabinet holds 1-4 manifold rows and supports up to 120 valves. Each solenoid valve can have remote indication feedback (VPI) and be isolated for reliable emergency operation and easy repairs to reduce your downtime. The cabinet also hosts room for intelligent and standard I/O modules enabling all tank-related functions. With this distributed intelligence, response time is optimized.
The Damcos™ Control Cabinet, developed by Emerson, is a high-performance hydraulic and electro-hydraulic control unit designed for precise and reliable operation of valve actuators and automation systems. It serves as the central command interface for controlling multiple Damcos™ actuators, including hydraulic, electro-hydraulic, and spring-return models, across marine and offshore installations. Engineered for robust performance in harsh environments, the Damcos™ Control Cabinet provides manual, remote, or automatic valve control, offering flexibility and safety in critical operations. The cabinet integrates pressure control valves, accumulators, filters, solenoid valves, and monitoring instruments, ensuring consistent performance and easy system management. Constructed with marine-grade stainless steel and built to IP-rated enclosures, the control cabinet withstands vibration, humidity, and corrosive atmospheres typical of offshore platforms, vessels, and refineries. Its modular design allows for customized configurations tailored to the specific process, system layout, and actuator requirements.
