DESIGN & BUILT

Local Control Station (LCS)

Local Control Station (LCS) is a field-mounted control interface designed to provide manual operation and status indication of plant equipment such as motors, drives, pumps, crushers, and other process equipment. It enables local start/stop control, emergency shutdown, and operational status monitoring independent of the main control room (PLC/DCS). It can also be connected to main control system via RIO panels. Typical installation areas include mining sites, processing plants, substations, and heavy industrial facilities.

Laser Engraved Labels

  • Industrial-grade engraved Traffolyte / Stainless steel labels
  • Improved visibility in low-light or dusty environments
  • Excellent durability — resistant to impact, abrasion, and general wear.
  • High temperature resistance — suitable for hot industrial areas where plastic labels may deform.
  • UV resistant — suitable for outdoor use without fading like some printed labels.
  • Chemical resistance — handles oils, solvents, and cleaning agents better than many alternative materials.
  • Permanent identification — ideal for asset tags, machine nameplates, cable tags, and hazardous area equipment marking

Pre-assembled control unit

Local Control Stations are pre-assembled to provide reliable local operation of field equipment such as motors, pumps, conveyors and valves. Built, wired and tested before delivery, they reduce site installation time, improve build quality, and provide a consistent, durable solution for industrial environments.

  • Pre-wired internal harness
  • Ferruled and labelled wiring
  • Labelled rail terminal blocks
  • Plug-in screw/spring clamp Terminal Blocks options for rapid installation, suitable for high vibration area
  • Designed for site-specific PLC I/O configuration
  • Installed visual break isolator as per the design
  • Power circuits isolated by Perspex cover to provide
  • Provides IP2X minimum protection against hazardous live part and complies with AS 60529 / AS/NZS 60529.
