The Valve Control Station has multiple configurations to operate from 1 to 10 valve actuators. A single pump Control Station will operate from 1 to 5 valve actuators using a single pump configuration. A two pump Control Station will operate from 6 to 10 valve actuators using either one or both of the pumps provided.

Each Valve Control Station is a self-contained sub-station that includes the following equipment:

• Stainless steel 4 gallon reservoir with liquid level sight gauge.
• Fluid shut-off valve.
• Two high-pressure hydraulic filters with replaceable elements.
• Hand driven rotary pump built to MIL-P-18111A.
• 3-way directional selector valves each with two isolation valves.
• Adjustable system pressure relief valve.
• Hydraulic pressure gauge.
• Valve position indicator lights for each valve.

The Valve Control Station and each valve actuator are interconnected with 2 hydraulic lines connected directly behind the 3-way selector valves.

The valve position indicators are pre-wired to terminal boxes for cable connection to each valve actuator and the ship’s DMS console.

Operation of a valve is accomplished by choosing the desired 3-way valve, opening the two isolation valves, rotating the hand pump in a clockwise direction until the pressure gauge indicates the system maximum pressure. The position indicator lamps will confirm the valve position if electrical power is present.
