What is a "SV Valve Signalling Monitor”?

+ -

It is a valve monitor designed to automate Namur standard rotary valves signalling locally or remotely the open or closed positioning of the valve.

How does the SV check the valve positioning?

+ -

By inductive or magnetic sensors incorporated to monitor that detect the magnetic or metallic actuator installed on the local signaller. The sensing is completely contactless and signals can be sent to a control system.

Is there mechanical wear between the monitor and valve positioning signaller?

+ -

The system uses no moving shaft or bushings inside the box, which could decrease the inner seal, and cause locking issues that normally prevent the activation of position sensors.

How does the system identify the open or closed position?

+ -

There are sensors for each valve position.

What is the “Internal Shunt”?

+ -

It is a shunt system of the network cable that is fully integrated into the monitor and allows hot replacement of the remote signalling module or the solenoid valve without interrupting the operation of the rest of the network. Some models can be ordered with shunt.

How is its electrical installation performed?

+ -

Both on models with remote signalling by sensors as in models with remote signalling by network, the wires can be connected directly to the monitoring modules, which have pressure terminals to facilitate the connection. The modules are installed inside the monitor housing, protected against any mishap that might happen.

Can solenoid valves be used?

+ -

Yes, the solenoid valve used depends on the SV model.

What are the electric configurations available?

+ -

We have point to point models in DC, Namur or dry contact (reed switch) versions. Or for industrial networks: AS-Interface, DeviceNet, Profibus DP and Foundation Fieldbus.
