Vetus DSKITF Dual Station Throttle Control Unit (Pull-Type)
The Vetus DSKITF dual station throttle unit enables two independent control stations to operate the throttle of a single engine. Designed specifically for pull-type throttle mechanisms such as fuel injection pumps or engine throttle levers, this system combines the mechanical action of two single-lever controls into a single synchronized output. Installed close to the throttle lever, it ensures smooth and accurate throttle response from either command station.
Main Features
- Enables throttle operation from two control stations on a single engine
- Designed exclusively for pull-type throttle actuation systems
- Provides one unified mechanical output to the engine throttle lever
- Works in conjunction with the Vetus DS gearbox dual station unit for full dual-control setups
- Compatible with standard 33C marine control cables
- Supports full 76 mm stroke for proper throttle range
Operational Guidelines
- Only suitable for throttle mechanisms that operate by pulling
- Do not operate both control levers simultaneously
- The first lever must always be returned to idle before using the second
- Install the unit as close as possible to the engine throttle lever or injection pump
- Ensure smooth cable routing with appropriate bend radius
Technical Overview
Parameter Specification Application Dual-station throttle control (pull-type) Stroke 76 mm Suitable Cable Type 33C control cables Installation Location Near the engine throttle lever or injection pump Weight Approx. 0.27 kg Accessory System Around the Engine
System Requirements
- One DSKITF unit required per engine for throttle control
- One DS dual station unit required per engine for gearbox control
- Both units combined form a complete dual-station control system
Application
The Vetus DSKITF is ideal for vessels equipped with two helm stations requiring synchronized throttle control for a single engine. It ensures precise mechanical linkage, reliable actuation, and safe operation in marine throttle systems that function exclusively through a pull-type motion.
