Essex Electrohermal Shut Off Ball Valves

Electro-Thermal Shut-off, Electric or
Heat Actuated Ball Valve by Essex

The electro-thermal link (ETL) used on the Essex actuated shut-off ball valve is compatible with most smoke or gas detectors on the market.

The operating range fo the link is 6 to 30 VAC or 6 to 30 VDC. It requires less than 0.2 amperes of power, 0.5 milliseconds at 24 volts. The unit may be used with other similar circuitry such as a rate of rise detector or other automatic alarm switch (see application sheet HR-1 and HR-2).

Applications include those of the 165° F Essex standard thermal link shown in Fig. 1, but, in addition will operate when subjected to an electrical impulse of low power and short durtion from local or remote location.

ETL may be furnished at 212° F or 255° F but are not U.L. listed.

This unit is used with fuel and combustion controls, combustion safeguards, electrical signaling system which are:

  • heat activated
  • smoke or gas activated
  • flame-energy activated
  • activated by rate of rise or maximum temperature
