Damcos™ Indicators
Verify your marine actuator positions with complete accuracy. Damcos offers both a Direct Position Indicator (DPI), a Direction Flow Indicator (DFI) and a Volumetric Position Indicator (VPI) both designed to fit Damcos program. All indicator types are available for On/Off applications. DPI and VPI with pressure/temperature compensation provides use in analogue application as well.
The Damcos™ Indicators, developed by Emerson, are rugged and highly reliable valve position indicators designed for use with Damcos hydraulic actuators and other valve automation systems. These precision instruments provide clear and accurate visual or electrical feedback of valve position—open, closed, or in-between—ensuring safe and efficient operation in both onshore and offshore environments. Built for harsh industrial and marine conditions, Damcos Indicators feature corrosion-resistant materials, watertight housings, and shock-resistant designs that make them ideal for use on offshore platforms, marine vessels, subsea systems, and industrial process plants. The indicators are available in mechanical, electrical, and electro-hydraulic versions, offering compatibility with a wide range of control and monitoring systems. Damcos Indicators are essential for process safety and automation, providing operators with a clear, dependable confirmation of valve status during normal operation or emergency conditions. Their modular design allows easy integration with Damcos actuators and control panels, ensuring long-term performance, simple maintenance, and enhanced system reliability.

Feature of Damcos™ Indicators
- Direct indicator D/DPI, indicating directly on the actuator spindle
- D/DPI Set point adjustment is performed without dismounting
- D/DPI could be mounted in different blocks
- DPI mounting in LPU is made with only internal wiring
- Use of precision potentiometer or micro switches
- Indirect indicator VPI and DFI is indicating actuator movement remotely, typically placed on a manifold with a solenoid valve
- All indicators are a simple apparatus and can be placed in hazardous area, when connected to a safety barrier
- VPI comes with different gears matching actuator size and pipe length
- VPI is available in different materials and setups for dry and deck installation
- VPI is available with pressure and temperature compensation
