The ASCO Redundant Control System (RCS) is a fully assembled pilot valve system, providing the economical solution to meet the need for high process reliability while maintaining required plant safety levels in a variety of process applications.
Are you looking for a dependable, on-demand shutdown solution to maintain safety levels, protect workers and equipment, that allows timely, easy maintenance? The ASCO Series RCS Redundant Control System allows you to improve process reliability and maintain safety levels while mitigating problematic and expensive nuisance trips.
The high availability and market leading flow of RCS provides the industry’s best choice for actuation control of critical process valves and safety system applications.
The ASCO Redundant Control System (RCS) is the only pilot valve system with no single point of failure that could result in an unwanted closure of the process valve. By greatly reducing spurious trips, the ASCO RCS helps avoid unplanned downtime and the associated costs. It achieves higher levels of safety by incorporating a redundant, fault-tolerant architecture, high diagnostic coverage and automated testing.
ASCO Redundant Control System (RCS) Features:
- Optional stainless steel construction
- No nuisance trips
- Easy on-line maintenance
- Automated solenoid testing
- Automated partial stroke testing
- High safety availability
- Industry's best choice for valve actuation + automated testing
Automated online testing provides both increased reliability and improved safety with diagnostic feedback from either a pressure switch or TopWorx GO Switch, enabling the RCS to be fit for us in SIL 3 applications.
Available 316 stainless steel valve bodies and pressure switches are ideally suited for use in corrosive environments and High Integrity Pressure Protection Systems (HIPPS) including:
- Oil and gas production (upstream/midstream)
- Refining (downstream)
- Applications where corrosion resistance is critical
