any work is done on the fire sprinkler or fire alarm system building owner or their authorized representative shall be notified opening any closed valve ensure that opening the valve not cause any damage from water flow due to open or missing piping etc Specifications This document contains important information on the installation and operation of valve supervisory switches please read all instructions before beginning installation a copy of this document is required by NFpa 72 to be maintained on site OSYSU eX O is designed to supervise the position of an Outside Yoke type gate valve in hazardous outdoor locations The mounts on the valve to monitor the rising stem When properly the trip rod will be resting in a groove filed into the valve When the valve stem begins to move caused by closing the the trip rod will be pushed out of the groove and activate the To aid with installation the trip rod length is adjustable This features a UL listed explosion proof switch enclosure operation of the OSYSU eX O and its associated protective system shall be inspected tested and maintained in with all applicable local and national codes and standards the authority Having Jurisdiction manufacturer recommends or more frequently a minimum test shall consist of turning valve wheel towards the closed position The OSYSU eX O shall within the first two revolutions of the wheel Fully close the and ensure that the OSYSU eX O does not restore Fully open valve and ensure that the OSYSU eX O restores to normal only the valve is fully opened Fig 3 lbs 1,73 kg enclosure

in the FULL OpeN position locate the OSYSU across the valve yoke as far from the valve gland so the spring loaded trip rod of the OSYSU eX O is pulled the non threaded portion of the valve stem position the with the bracket near the handwheel as shown Fig 1 if possible to avoid creating a pinch point between the and the OSYSU eX O Loosen the locking screw that holds the trip rod in place and the rod length see Fig 3 When adjusted properly the should extend past the valve screw but not so far that it the clamp bar Tighten the locking screw to 5 in lbs to hold the trip rod in place If trip rod length is excessive loosen the locking and remove the trip rod from the trip lever Using break off the one 1 inch long notched section see 4 Reinstall trip rod and repeat Step 3 procedure Mount the OSYSU eX O loosely with the carriage bolts and bar supplied On valves with limited clearance use supplied instead of the carriage bolts and clamp bar to the OSYSU eX O Mark the valve stem at the center of the trip rod Remove the OSYSU eX O Utilizing a 3 16 or 1 4 diameter file file a 1 8 minimum depth groove centered on the on the valve stem Deburr and smooth the edges of the to prevent damage to the valve packing and to allow the rod to move easily in and out of the groove as the valve is a groove depth of up to approximately 3 16 can make easier to install the OSYSU eX O so that it does not restore it rolls over by the threads of the valve stem Mount the OSYSU eX O on the valve yoke with the spring trip rod of the OSYSU eX O pulled against the valve and centered in the groove of the stem If possible position OSYSU eX O as shown in Fig 1 to help avoid creating a point between the wheel and OSYSU eX O Final adjustment can be made by slightly loosening the two on the bracket and using the fine adjustment feature see 1 The adjustment is correct when the switches are not with the trip rod seated in the valve stem groove and the switches activate when the trip rod moves out of the there is continuity between the COM and NO terminals the switches Tighten the adjustment bolts and all mounting hardware 90 in lbs minimum Check to insure that the rod out of the groove easily and that the switches activate two turns when the valve is operated from the FULL towards the CLOSeD position Reinstall the cover and tighten the cover screws the valve fully to determine that the stem threads do not the switch The switch being activated by the stem threads result in a false valve open indication page 2 OF 5 Explosion Proof Outside Screw and Yoke Valve Supervisory Switch5401535 REV
