Series E Double Valve with Monitoring & Memory:
a) Self-contained dynamic monitoring system requires no further valve monitoring controls,
b) Dynamic memory of abnormal function prevents unintentional reset with removal of air or electricity.
•
All necessary features for safety applications are included:
a) Electrical reset valve,
b) Status indicator switch for valve condition (ready-to-run) feedback.

Series E Double Valve with Monitoring:
a) Self-contained dynamic monitoring system requires no further valve monitoring controls,
b) Ready-to-run: If an abnormality clears itself upon the removal of electricity to both solenoids, it will be ready-to-run again.
It does not remember the abnormality & stay in a locked-out state until intentionally reset.
Therefore, cumulative abnormalities may go undetected,
c) Status indicator switch for valve condition (ready-to-run) feedback.
