NAKAKITA NSTM732 Automatic Pneumatic Temperature Controller

Category:

Product overview

The Nakakita NSTM732 is an automatic pneumatic temperature-indicating controller commonly installed on marine diesel-engine cooling, lubricating-oil and fuel-oil systems. It measures process temperature and supplies a pneumatic control signal to a diaphragm-operated control valve.

Nakakita Seisakusho manufactures marine fluid-control equipment for engine rooms, ballast systems and tanker cargo systems. Nakakita official product information

The temperature range and control mode vary between individual NSTM732 configurations. One documented marine configuration uses a 0–150°C range, 1.4 kgf/cm² supply and 0.2–1.0 kgf/cm² control pressure. Documented NSTM732 configuration

Marine applications

  • Main-engine jacket-water temperature control
  • Lubricating-oil temperature regulation
  • Fuel-oil heating and viscosity-control systems
  • Generator-engine cooling systems
  • Central freshwater-cooling systems
  • Three-way pneumatic temperature-control valves
  • Replacement on Japanese-built vessels

Why this is a suitable catalogue product

  • Large installed base on older commercial vessels
  • Frequently required for repair, calibration and replacement
  • New replacement units and internal spares can be difficult to source locally
  • Customers must often locate the correct temperature range and pneumatic action
  • Deep Automation can offer inspection, calibration, repair and replacement assistance
