VIII. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
1. Components
The Valve Control indicator requires the following components:
– Control or Display Module
– Pressure Sensor (UBEC2, UBEC3 and UICS2)
– Paddlewheel Flow Sensor and Mounting Assembly (UBEC3)
– Cables
Control and Display Module (UBEC1, UBEC2, UBEC3 and UICS2)
The valve control and display module is waterproof and has dimensions of 4¼ inches high by 4¼ inches wide
by 2½ inches deep. All controls and indicators are located on the front of the display module. Refer to Controls
and Indicators on Page 41.
Actuator Control Module (E3F and E4F)
The valve control module is permanently fixed to the top of the actuator gear case cover. The entire control
module is sealed by utilizing a two part epoxy to ensure that moisture will not affect the electronics. Control
of the valve can be accomplished though the use of the CAN communication, UBEC series controllers, or
external switches.
Pressure Sensor (UBEC2, UBEC3 and UICS2)
The pressure sensor provides an input signal to the display module that is proportional to the discharge
pressure. It is mounted on the downstream side of the discharge valve. The electrical connector is waterproof
and molded into the pressure sensor housing.
Paddlewheel Flow Sensor (UBEC3)
The flow sensor provides an input signal to the display module that is proportional to the discharge flow rate.
It is mounted in the discharge piping. Placement of the sensor in the piping is critical to obtaining accurate
flow rate information, refer to the installation procedures for detailed information on mounting locations on
Page 44 . The electrical connector is waterproof and molded into the flow sensor housing.
Cables
Interconnecting cables are provided. Refer to Wiring section on Page 68.
