Gas Detection Systems - Receivers

Receivers integrate with Powell Valve Closure Systems by accepting signal from 1 to 32 sensors or transmitters and then passing the input to the Powell Valve Closure System Control Panel. The control panel then activates the actuator to close the container valve. Within seconds from the time the unseen hazardous or combustible gas is detected, the container valve is closed, stopping what otherwise would have been a reportable release.

Powell Valve Closure Systems can be configured to respond to input from a variety of gas detection systems. Powell recommends the following receivers:
