Industrial controls and ground fuelling

Industrial controls

Providing a full range of capabilities, from custom design through development to full qualification, Meggitt Control Systems has pioneered state-of-the-art technologies for power generation and mechanical drive applications. These include digitally-controlled valves for gas turbine fuel metering and pneumatic shut-off and purging. All provide critical response mechanisms, set high standards for reliability, long life and low maintenance, save energy and  minimise emissions.

Products include base engine and dry low emissions (DLE) engine fuel skid controls certified to OEM specifications; and high-speed fuel control and shutoff valves that operate in less than 100 milliseconds.

Meggitt Control Systems’ facility in North Hollywood, California, formerly known as Whittaker Controls (www.whittakercontrols.com), specialises in industrial controls.
