Pilot Control Manifolds

Upfloat Closing Valve

The L&S Electric Pilot Control Manifolds offer a cost-effective electro-hydraulic interface for upgrading mechanical or electric governors to digital controllers. Their design is adaptable to nearly all two-stage valves, and works with


L&S Electric has digital governor upgrade solutions with everything needed to upgrade any governor into a new high-performance digital governor: from a pre-engineered package for a cost-effective and expedient upgrade to custom solutions for the most demanding plants.

    • Easily upgrade mechanical or electrical governors to digital controllers – keeping the existing low-pressure system, or upgrading to a high-pressure system
    • Cut maintenance costs by eliminating old pilot control, pilot valve, and shutdown assemblies
    • Adaptable to nearly any two-stage valve systems regardless of age, type, manufacturer, or pressure rating
    • Frequency response 5 times faster than old governor systems
    • Design effectively converts the following governor types and more:
    • Gateshaft governors
    • Type A Actuators
    • Mechanical Cabinet Actuators
    • Electrical Cabinet Actuators
    • Analog, cost-effective, off-the-shelf spare parts
