PBN Series follows the same body, port and pressure platform in a normally-closed-only configuration for dedicated shut-off duty.

Coil Information

Shared Coil Platform

PCN and PBN valves use the same coil options as the rest of the UFlow diaphragm and direct-acting range.

Operating Voltage
AC 24V/110V/230V  |  DC 12V/24V
Power Consumption
AC 9W  |  DC 10–11W
Coil Housing
IP65 Epoxy Square, IP65 Metallic Round, IP67 Flameproof, IP68 Weatherproof
Optional
90% Power Saver series, Manual override, Water hammer reducer
Use of a filter at the inlet port is recommended. A water-hammering reducer option is available to prevent hammer forces on fast-closing large-bore lines.
