Propulsion Control Heads

PMC manufactures a wide range of propulsion control heads suitable for any marine or industrial application. All models are constructed with materials that are compatible with the marine environment. Watertight construction makes them suitable for installation in outside stations.

Control heads are available single or dual lever with electric, pneumatic or mechanical output. Most models are available with potentiometer and switch outputs and lever detents. An electric shaft system can also be included as an electric alternative to mechanical shafting for inter-connecting control levers on a ship.
