Danfoss 160G0424 Complete Valve Position Indicator (VPI)
Danfoss 160G0424 Complete Valve Position Indicator (VPI)
The Danfoss / Damcos VPI-C Valve Position Indicator (160G0442) is a precision-engineered hydraulic feedback device designed to provide visual and electrical analog feedback for valve actuators in marine, offshore, and industrial applications. Manufactured by Danfoss System Hydraulik A/S, Denmark, this rugged and compact indicator ensures accurate monitoring of valve positions even in harsh environments.
The VPI-C features a magnetic clutch mechanism, eliminating external leakage while transferring gear motor movement to the indicator shaft. With an adjustable indication range of 75°–200°, the VPI-C is available in multiple versions, making it suitable for remote monitoring, hazardous area operations, and shipboard control systems.
Trusted worldwide, the VPI-C enhances safety, efficiency, and reliability in hydraulic control systems for ships, offshore platforms, and industrial installations.
