WDK-1 Flush Type Whistle Controller

WDK-1 Flush Type Whistle Controller

Product Introduction

Our Marine Whistle Controller is a robust, purpose-built control unit designed for precise operation of ship's whistle or horn systems. Engineered to meet stringent maritime regulations, including SOLAS (International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea) requirements, this controller provides reliable and clear audible signaling, which is essential for navigation safety, ship-to-ship communication, and maneuvering in all weather conditions.

Robust Construction & Marine-Grade Reliability

Housed in a durable, corrosion-resistant enclosure (typically marine-grade aluminum or stainless steel with a high IP rating), the controller is built to withstand the harsh marine environment. It is resistant to salt spray, moisture, vibration, and wide temperature fluctuations commonly encountered on a ship's bridge wings or in open control stations. The internal components are selected for long-term reliability and stable performance under continuous operational demands.

Intuitive User Interface & Precise Operation

The controller features a user-friendly interface, often a robust lever, push-button, or selector switch, designed for immediate and unambiguous operation. It allows the crew to activate standardized sound signals—such as short and prolonged blasts—with precision and ease. Many models include clear status indicators (e.g., LED lights) to confirm system activation. The design ensures that critical sound signals can be initiated quickly and reliably, even in stressful or low-visibility situations.

Versatile Integration & Compliance

The unit is designed for seamless integration with the vessel's existing whistle/horn electro-pneumatic or electric system. It typically operates on standard shipboard voltage (e.g., 24VDC or 110/220VAC) and provides a control signal to the main whistle actuator or solenoid valve. By providing dependable and compliant control, our Whistle Controller plays a vital role in fulfilling a vessel's statutory signaling obligations and enhancing overall navigational safety.
