The Norcontrol DEIF DLQ96PC-NB is a panel-mounted starting air meter designed to display starting air pressure within marine engine control and monitoring systems. Operating over a range of 0–4 MPa with a 4–20 mA analogue input signal, this instrument provides accurate, real-time pressure indication critical to safe main engine starting sequences onboard. As part of the Marine Control System category, it integrates into vessel automation and alarm panels where reliable pressure readout is essential to engine room operations and watch-keeping routines.
Key Features
✓ Measures starting air pressure over a range of 0–4 MPa via a 4–20 mA analogue input signal with a loop load of less than 4 Ω, providing accurate panel-level indication.
✓ Illuminated display powered at 24 VAC/DC, supporting clear visibility in engine control room panels under varying lighting conditions typical onboard vessels.
✓ Designed for integration with Norcontrol and DEIF marine automation and monitoring systems; compatibility with specific panels or controllers subject to confirmation based on system configuration.
✓ Panel-mount format (96 mm square face, DLQ96 series) suitable for installation in engine control room consoles and automation cabinet fronts in dry, protected environments.
✓ Direct replacement or spare for existing Norcontrol DEIF installations; confirmation of fit recommended by sharing nameplate data, panel drawings, and system model details prior to installation.
Marine Applications
✓ Main engine starting air pressure monitoring on deep-sea cargo vessels, tankers, and bulk carriers equipped with Norcontrol or DEIF engine control systems.
✓ Engine control room console instrumentation on offshore support vessels and platform supply vessels where starting air system status must be continuously displayed.
✓ Integration into centralised vessel automation and alarm monitoring panels requiring analogue 4–20 mA pressure signal display.
✓ Replacement instrumentation during scheduled dry-dock overhaul or corrective maintenance where original panel meters require renewal.
✓ Retrofit applications on vessels upgrading legacy Norcontrol DEIF control system panels to restore correct pressure readout functionality.
Why Marine Engineers Choose
The DEIF DLQ96PC-NB is a purpose-built marine instrument combining a straightforward analogue input interface with illuminated panel display, making it a dependable and directly interchangeable component for maintaining starting air system visibility in established Norcontrol DEIF control system installations.
Ideal For
Deep-sea cargo ships, tankers, bulk carriers, offshore support vessels, and any commercial or industrial vessel operating Norcontrol or DEIF engine control and monitoring systems requiring starting air pressure indication at the main engine control panel.
Technical Support & Compliance
Technical assistance is available to support remote troubleshooting, onboard diagnostics, testing and commissioning, and retrofit or upgrade integration for this meter and associated control system components. Compatibility with specific Norcontrol DEIF panels, controllers, and system versions is subject to confirmation. To verify suitability, buyers are encouraged to share nameplate photographs, the original part number, panel arrangement drawings, system model and software version details, vessel name, and IMO number where applicable. Repair and calibration support options may also be available depending on scope and configuration — please enquire with full details to confirm the appropriate supply or service solution.
