Supervisory Switch - PIBV2
PIBV2 Supervisory Switch
Product Overview
- NEMA 3R rated enclosure
- Bi-directional actuator accommodates rising or falling flags
- Single side conduit entry does not require right angle fittings
- Adjustable length actuator eliminates the need for cutting the shaft
- Accommodates up to 12 AWG wire
- Two SPDT contacts are enclosed in a durable terminal block for added strength
- 100% synchronization activates both alarm panel and local bell simultaneously
System Sensor’s PIBV2 supervisory switch monitors the open position of post indicator and butterfly control valves.
Robust Construction. The PIBV2 consists of a rugged housing, intended for indoor and outdoor use. When installed with the actuator in the vertical position, the PIBV2 is NEMA 3R rated per UL.
Application Flexibility. The PIBV2 features a flexible design that accommodates post indicator, butterfly, and many other types of wall post, recessed wall post and pressure reducing valves. The PIBV2’s unique bi-directional actuator allows the unit to be installed in either rising or falling flag installations.
Simplified Operation. Installation is made easier with the PIBV2’s single side conduit entrance. By providing a direct conduit pathway to the electrical source, right angle fittings are not required. Installation is further simplified by the PIBV2’s adjustable length actuator, which eliminates the need for cutting the shaft.
Reliable Performance. The PIBV2 is equipped with tamper resistant cover screws to prevent unauthorized entry. Inside, two sets of SPDT (Form C) synchronized switches are enclosed in a durable terminal block to assure reliable performance.
