Moniteur Devices

Moniteur Devices was founded in 1992 with the mission to provide the process industries with advanced solutions for valve status and control. The founders of Moniteur were there at the early stages of the development of the Valve Position Indicator. Working with the products and acquiring market feedback, a need was realized for vastly improved position indicators. The second-generation Valve Position Transmitter platform is now recognized as the industry’s best. Moniteur’s product range now includes three segments – Valve Position Transmitters, Valve Networking, and Positioners.

Mechanical SPDT and DPDT Switches
The most popular switch for general purpose applications is rated 15A at 120 VAC and 2.5V at 24 VDC. Our standard mechanical switches are specified with higher operating forces and offer better resistance to freeze up. Gold Plated SPDT switches rated at 1A at 24 VDC are a low-cost alternative for intrinsically safe applications. DPDT Mechanical Switches rated at 10A / 125 VAC and 7A / 24VDC are also available. Specifications
Non-Contact TTL SPDT (proximity-type) Switches
These hermetically sealed switches set the standard for reliability. Tungsten TTL switches are used for high current AC and DC applications with a rating of 3A at 120 VAC and 2A at 24 VDC. Choose Rhodium TTL for low voltage / low current DC and Intrinsically Safe applications. Optional LEDs are also available on the Krystal TTL with Rhodium contacts. NOTE: Switches with Tungsten contacts are not recommended for DC signals lower than 50 mA. Specifications

Scout VPT

Main Product Info

Manufacturer: Moniteur Devices

Description:

Compact Valve Position Monitoring and Built-in Solenoid
Integration with EASYConnect

The SCOUT Valve Postion Controller’sapproach to low profile position sensing is a millenium-sized advance for the NAMUR style actuator market. Incorporating SCOUT VPCs advances your automated valves into the ASI and DeviceNet networking arena! The Scout is also available in many sensor output versions, making incorporating the SCOUT VPT in your plant simple.

Features & Benefits of Moniteur’s Scout VPT

ASi and DeviceNet modules are integral with the Sensor Block and provide each automated valve with a unique address on the network.

Solid State Inductive Sensors standard on all SCOUT VPTs offer a virtually unlimited cycle life.

Available in many circuit configurations – Choose from AC, DC PNP, DC 2-wire and NAMUR for direct integration into your plant’s process control system.

Fully Enclosed Sensor Electronics with no exposed resins make the Scout the ideal choice for corrosive, humid or washdown environments.

Moniteur’s optional EASYConnect solenoid mounting allows solenoid power to be routed through the sensor block, making additional junction housings unnecessary.

Indicator LEDs located on the sensor block clearly verify network, sensor and solenoid operation, and valve position locally.

Simple Installation – The Position Transmitter target mounts directly to the NAMUR output shaft of your actuator, while the sensor block mounts to the holes. No adjustment or calibration is required once the VPT has been installed.

Dribble Control

Main Product Info

Manufacturer: Moniteur Devices

Applications: 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

Description:

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.

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.

Features & Benefits of Moniteur’s Dribble Control Products

Dual flow rate positions for filling vessels or flow dampening

Fully adjustable set points allow the user flexibility to determine proper stage switching

Open / Closed limit switches provide additional valve end point monitoring

Factory assembled and tested, saving users and assemblers time and money

All of the standard freatures of our Sentinel or Watchman product lines.
