Damcos / Danfoss BP-EV Position Indicator E18-0531/2
Damcos / Danfoss BP-EV Position Indicator E18-0531/2
The Danfoss / Damcos DPI-E Position Indicator (BP-EV type) is a robust marine-grade electrical feedback device designed for quarter-turn actuators (BRC, BRCF, DMS series) and valve automation systems. Equipped with two micro-switches or an integrated potentiometer, it provides reliable ON/OFF or continuous analog feedback to shipboard control panels and automation networks.
Engineered for marine and offshore conditions, the DPI-E ensures precise valve position monitoring, with adjustable switching points and easy installation on compatible actuators. This unit is widely used in Valve Remote Control Systems (VRCS) across merchant fleets, offshore platforms, and industrial process plants.
