Danfoss / Damcos 160G0422 VPI-C (Valve Position Indicator)
Danfoss / Damcos 160G0422 VPI-C (Valve Position Indicator)
The **Danfoss / Damcos VPI-C (Valve Position Indicator) model 160G0422 is a low-power hydraulic position feedback device designed for sensitive control circuits and intrinsically safe systems. It provides precise visual and electrical indication of remote valve position in VRCS and industrial hydraulic applications.
Key Specifications
• Manufacturer: Danfoss System Hydraulik A/S (Damcos)
• Type: VPI-C Valve Position Indicator
• Part Number: 160G0422
• Max Continuous Load: 0.2 W (low-power circuit)
• Origin: Made in Denmark
• Feedback: Visual + Electrical (low current)
• Design: Volumetric hydraulic measurement
• Installation: Inline with actuator hydraulic lines
Working Principle
Hydraulic flow drives an internal micro-gear mechanism calibrated to actuator volume. Movement is transferred magnetically to the dial, eliminating shaft seals and preventing leakage. Internal low-power switching elements provide electrical open/closed signals suitable for sensitive electronics.
Key Differences (VPI-C vs Higher-Power Models)
• Ultra-low electrical load (0.2 W)
• Designed for low-current control systems
• Suitable for intrinsically safe or hazardous areas
• Uses precision reed switches or similar low-energy components
• Same hydraulic accuracy and mechanical design
Visual Indicator
• Dial shows real-time valve position
• Green arrow typically indicates OPEN state (installation dependent)
• No external power required for visual indication
Typical Applications
• Marine Valve Remote Control Systems (VRCS)
• Ballast valve monitoring
• Cargo valve systems
• Bilge valve position feedback
• Offshore platforms hazardous zones
• Tankers and LNG vessels
• Refineries with intrinsic safety requirements
• Chemical plants with low-energy control circuits
