SYSTEMSENSOR OSY2A

OSY2
Supervisory Switch
System Sensor’s OSY2 is used to monitor the open
position of an Outside Screw and Yoke (OS&Y) type
gate valve.
Features
Robust Construction. The OSY2 consists of a rugged housing,
intended for indoor and outdoor use. When installed with the
actuator in the vertical position, the OSY2 is NEMA 3R rated per UL.
• NEMA 3R rated enclosure
• User-friendly mounting bracket fits newer valve yokes
• 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
• Three position switch monitors vandal and valve close signals
• Two SPDT contacts are enclosed in a durable terminal block for
added strength
• 100% synchronization activates both alarm panel and local bell
simultaneously
Application Flexibility. The OSY2 features a user-friendly
mounting bracket and adjustable shaft to permit mounting to most
OS&Y valves, ranging in size from 1˝ to 12˝. Its right angle design
and wide bracket span provides maximum clearance for valve
components, to accommodate troublesome valves. Removing the
OSY2’s gate valve bracket allows the unit to monitor side-bracket
style pressure reducing valves.
Simplified Operation. Installation is made easier with the
OSY2’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 OSY2’s adjustable length
actuator, which eliminates the need for cutting the shaft.
Reliable Performance. The OSY2 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.
