The electronic reset PowerHalt Shut-Off Valve (PH3) has an indicator light on the membrane switch panel. When the valve is closed the red light will illuminate until the valve is re-opened.
Electronic activation PowerHalt systems can be powered by 12 or 24 VDC. Manual activation kits are specific to either 12 or 24 VDC whereas the automatic activation kits are universal to either power source.
Once connected to power, manual activation kits will draw near 0mA of current while automatic activation kits will draw 30-35mA at idle.
Yes, if you have a PH3 system you are able to program a secondary set-point to protect your auxiliary PTO equipment. Refer to your PH3 Installation Manual for more details on how to activate and program your secondary set-point.
If you have control over the engine speed: choose to set your trip speed at 30% above the engine rated RPM. Refer to your programming manual for set-up procedure.
If your engine runs at a constant speed: you can choose to set your trip speed at 10, 20, or 30% above the constant engine speed. Refer to your programming manual for set-up procedure.
The PowerHalt PH3 air shut-off valve series can incorporate multiple auxiliary inputs from external sources for activation of the shut-off valve in the event of emergency. Ideal for secondary emergency monitoring systems as well as multiple locations for manual override input.
In some cases, the factory sensor port on the bellhousing does not line up directly over the flywheel teeth. The sensor port may give a partial view of the flywheel which is offset by a gap or a machined edge. It is possible that a threaded speed sensor will not be able to sense speed from an offset flywheel.
Pacbrake recommends first installing the sensor into the port and checking if the system is able to read speed. You can check that the sensor is detecting speed by proceeding to Set and Test a Trip Speed. If setting and testing occur successfully, the sensor is able to read speed.
If the sensor cannot read speed, contact Pacbrake Support for an offset adapter (P/N: C50136) and a 3/8”-20 gear tooth speed sensor. The offset adapter is a sleeve with a 3/4”-16 external thread and a 3/8”-20 hole drilled off-center to allow the smaller sensor to be positioned directly over the offset flywheel teeth.
A more immediate solution would be to drill and tap a new sensor port in the correct position on the bell housing.
