Killark Control Stations
Killark control stations are rugged operator interface enclosures designed to house pushbuttons, pilot lights, selector switches, emergency stop devices, and other control components in a single assembly. These stations provide centralized manual control for motors, pumps, lighting systems, and industrial equipment, particularly in environments where hazardous conditions may be present. By grouping multiple operator devices into one enclosure, control stations simplify wiring, reduce system complexity, and improve operational accessibility.
Engineered for demanding industrial applications, Killark control stations are commonly installed in petrochemical plants, refineries, oil and gas facilities, and other environments exposed to dust, moisture, corrosion, and extreme conditions. Their heavy-duty construction supports reliable performance in areas where durability and safety are critical. Explosion-proof and corrosion-resistant configurations are available to meet hazardous location classifications and industry compliance requirements.
Killark control stations support a wide range of control functions, including start/stop operation, jogging control, lighting control, remote equipment control, and emergency shutdown. These solutions are widely used in chemical processing, water and wastewater treatment, power generation, and other industries requiring dependable operator interfaces in challenging environments.
