Optional Electronic Panel

For Use With Smart Valves™ Or Smart Valve ROV™ Systems

 

This optional electric relay board can control up to four electrical devices. You can now wire your engine starter switch to this board so if the engine seacock is closed, the engine will not start until the valve is opened, either manually with the Smart Valve™ or remotely with the Smart Valve ROV™. This feature will eliminate operator errors such as turning on the macerator pump before opening the holding tank discharge seacock or starting the generator before opening the intake seacock. These costly repairs can be eliminated with Smart Valve™ technology installed on your Marelon seacocks. The optional Device Control boards are in "gangs" of four switches only. Use one or all four. Simple "plug and play" via simple phone cord style jacks make this addition simple. The boards mount behind the electrical panel or dash board out of view.

 

These Smart Valve™ systems allow the OEM boat builder a wide range of options to mix and match remote controlled valves (ROV's) with indicated (open/closed) valves on the same vessel. Add to this the electrical device "defeat" option and the vessels operation and safety is greatly enhanced as will the boat owner's piece of mind. These systems are ideal for chartered vessels or multiple owner vessels as one does not have to remember how the "partner" left the status of the valves.

 

All Smart Valve™ and Smart Valve ROV™ Systems are compatible with the new "CAN-BUS" power distribution systems allowing even more "Systems Integration" and features to the OEM boat builder.
