Description
Fike stop/maintenance valves are available in sizes ranging from 1/2” (15 mm) to 1 1/2” (40 mm). Stop valves are used for lock-out purposes to prevent the discharge of CO2 from the nozzles during system maintenance. The valves are equipped with lockable handles that can be locked in either the open or closed position for added security. Lock and key are not included.
The valve is equipped with two direct-drive micro switches which can be tied into the system control panel for the purpose of providing a trouble indication when the valve is closed. A visual indicator is also included to provide a visual reference as to the position of the valve.
The ball valve is a high pressure valve with a stainless steel body and ball, lubetal seats and a Buna-N body seal. The valves are equipped with female NPT connections on each end for piping connections.
The two micro switches are UL listed and hazardous rated for Class I, Group C, D and Class II, Group E, F and G installations. Both micro switches are direct driven and can annunciate a trouble condition to the control panel when the valve is closed. The micro switches are rated for 5 amps @ 24 Vdc.
