SYSTEMSENSOR PIBV2A

PIBV2
Supervisory Switch
System Sensor’s PIBV2 supervisory switch monitors
the open position of post indicator and butterfly
control valves.
Features
Robust Construction: The PIBV2’s rugged housing is intended
for indoor and outdoor use. When installed with the actuator in the
vertical position, the PIBV2 is NEMA 3R rated per UL.
• NEMA 3R rated enclosure
• Bi-directional actuator
• Easy single side conduit entry
• Adjustable length actuator with breakaway feature
• Built to accommodate up to 12 AWG wire
• Two sets of SPDT contacts enclosed in a durable terminal block
• 100 percent synchronization activates alarm panel and local bell
simultaneously
• Operating temperature range –40°F to 120°F (–40°C to 49°C)
• Tamper resistant cover screws
Application Flexibility: The PIBV2 features a flexible design, which
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 Installation: 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 with a convenient breakaway feature for installation on
shorter valves. This eliminates the need for cutting the shaft.
Reliable Performance: The PIBV2 has 100 percent synchronization
which activates the alarm panel and local bell simultaneously. In
addition, the switch is designed to operate in temperatures ranging
from –40°F to 120°F (–40°C to 49°C). 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.

PIBV2 Specifications
Architectural/Engineering Specifications
Model shall be model number PIBV2 Post Indicator Butterfly Valve supervisory switch as manufactured by System Sensor. PIBV2 shall be installed on each valve
as designated on the drawings and/or as specified herein. Switches shall be mounted so as not to interfere with the normal operation of the valve and shall
be adjusted to operate within two revolutions of the valve control or when the valve flag has moved no more than one-fifth of the distance from its normal
position. The mechanism shall be contained in a weatherproof die cast metal housing, which shall provide a side entrance for ½˝ conduit and incorporate a ½˝
NPT nipple for attachment to the valve body. A grounding provision is provided. The switch assembly shall include two switches each with a rated capacity of
10 Amp @ 125/250V AC and 2.5 Amp @ 24V DC. The cover shall contain tamper-resistant screws for which a security wrench will be provided with each switch.
PIBV2 shall be Underwriters Laboratories listed for indoor or outdoor use. The PIBV2 shall be Factory Mutual, CSFM, and MEA approved.
