1. Remove and discard the two C-clips and roller from the

actuating lever.

2. Set the valve to its fully open position. Remove the OSY2

Supervisory Switch from the carton and adjust the posi-
tion of the retaining washers to provide sufficient bolt
length for the yoke thickness of the valve.

Position the switch on the valve with the bolts on the

inside (preferably) or outside of the yoke, depending on
clearances. Adjust the position of the OSY2 as far as pos-
sible from the valve gland and in a location where the
actuating lever contacts the unthreaded section of the
valve stem (if the valve stem is already grooved, proceed
directly to step 6).

3. When the switch is in position on the valve, slide the

open end of the clamping bar onto the bolts and under
the retaining washers. If necessary, adjust the length of
the actuating lever by loosening the screw on the cam,
sliding the lever in or out, as appropriate, and retight-
ening the screw. The lever is properly adjusted when it
clears the clamping bar. Tighten the nuts by hand and
slide the OSY2 until the second switch trip points are
found as the lever rests on the valve stem. This approxi-
mates the final position of the OSY2 after the valve stem
is grooved. Carefully check all clearances of the bolts,
actuator, mounting bracket, clamping bar, and OSY2
cover. Adjust the position as necessary. If clearance is a
problem, refer to the Limited Clearance Valves (page 1)
section of this manual.

4. Mark the point on the valve stem where the actuating

lever contacts the valve stem.

5. Remove the OSY2 by loosening the nuts and sliding the

clamping bar from beneath the washers. Remove the
OSY2 from the valve and set it aside.

6. Mount the switch loosely with the actuating lever cen-

tered in the groove. When the switch is in position on
the valve, slide the open end of the clamping bar onto
the bolts and under the washers, as indicated in Figure
2.

7. Ensure that the actuating lever does not hit the inside

of the cover or the clamping bar at any point in its
travel. If it does, adjust the length of the lever by loos-
ening the screw, sliding the lever in or out, as needed,
and retightening the screw.

8. Adjust the supervisory switch position on the valve

so that both switches are depressed (COM to B circuit
open) when the actuating lever is in the groove with
the valve in the full open position. The COM to B cir-
cuit should close when the valve is closed

5

of its

travel or 2 full turns of the handle, whichever is less.
The switch produces an audible “click” when it closes.
The switch closure can also be tested electrically by
using an ohmmeter to test for continuity between its
terminals.

9. Tighten the nuts securely with a wrench and check the

operation of the OSY2 as in step 8. If necessary, reposi-
tion the OSY2 and test it again.

10. Wire the supervisory switch as shown in Figure 4.
11. Replace the OSY2 cover and tighten the tamper-resistant

cover screws with the special wrench provided. Store
this wrench in a secure location.

12. Test the operation of the OSY2 by closing the valve the

1

5

of its travel distance or two full turns, whichever is

less. The circuit between COM and B should indicate
a closure during this procedure. If it does not, readjust
the supervisory switch and actuator positions until the
switch closes when the valve is operated.

Testing
Test the operation of all supervisory switches before they
are placed into service and at least semiannually, or as
required by the authority having jurisdiction.

NOTE: Notify the proper authorities that the supervisory

switch(es) is (are) undergoing maintenance and,
therefore, will be temporarily out of service.
Disable the system or zone undergoing testing to
prevent unwanted alarms.

Test the operation of the OSY2 by closing the valve the

1

5

of its total travel distance or two full turns, whichever is
less. A contact closure must occur during this procedure.
If it does not, readjust the supervisory switch and actuator
positions until the switch closes when the valve operated.
