Chalwyn Air Intake Shut Down Valves model selection

The Chalwyn MVX Manually Operated Valve is a mechanically actuated valve for applications where manual actuation is required. The valve is designed to mechanically latch in the open position for the diesel engine to run. In the event of an engine overspeed condition, the operator actuates the manual stop mechanism. Once actuated, the positive spring action in the valve will close the valve. 

All versions of the MVX valve are designed to be opened locally using the reset lever mounted on top of the actuator. The valve includes five methods to manually actuate the valve.  See the Operation tab for a detailed description of the manual actuation methods.
