DRIBBLE CONTROL VPT
or
for General Purpose Nema 4, 4x or Explosion-Proof Nema 4, 4x, 7 & 9

The Moniteur DSS Dribble Control Package is a complete product incorporating two reliable ASCO solenoid valves and specially configured limit switches designed for two-stage operation. The package mounts to most spring return rotary pneumatic actuators and allows users to transform an automated valve into a two stage shutoff package. The most common applications are:

Filling or metering vessels. By being able to reduce the flow rate at a given point during a filling operation, one can more accurately fill a vessel.

Flow dampening. With the two stage package, valves can be partially closed rapidly and then completely closed gradually. This reduces water hammer and shock to pipes and valves.

Approvals:
Explosion-proof Version : UL / CSA Approved for Class 1, Division 1 Groups C-D and Class 2, Division 1 Groups E, F, G with Mechanical SPDT and DPDT switches.

General Purpose Version: CSA Approved

Application Note - Using spring return actuators for dribble control allows the unit to fail-close in case of an air or control signal failure. Avoid dribble control packages that use double acting actuators - they cannot provide this feature. Moniteur will not supply product so configured.
