Switch – Supervisory, Retrofit
Potter Flow
 
 

- Designed to monitor the fully open position of a ball valve installed in a sprinkler system
- Will fit on most ball valves installed on back-flow-preventers and alarm trim lines of dry, alarm, and deluge sprinkler valves
- Operates if the ball valve handle is moved from the open position
- The switch does not track the position of the handle or ball
- When the ball valve handle is in the open position, a spring-loaded switch button will contact the valve handle
- When the handle is moved from the open position, this switch button extends to the tripped position, and the RBVS-T contacts change state, thereby opening or closing a circuit
- The cover tamper switch is activated by the removal of the RBVS-T housing cover
- If an attempt is made to remove the RBVS-T by the removal of the mounting brackets, the unit will be set into the tripped mode by this action
- Waterflow Alarm Switch with Retard for Supervision of Wet Alarm Check Valve
