Hale MIV Electric / Manual Override Wheel
A Hale MIV Electric/Manual Override Wheel is a component used in fire pump systems to provide an additional means of controlling the MIV (Manual Isolation Valve) in the event of an electrical failure or malfunction. The MIV is a manually-operated valve that isolates the pump from the system and is typically used to drain water from the pump during maintenance or winterization.
The Electric/Manual Override Wheel is designed to work in conjunction with the MIV, allowing the valve to be operated manually or electrically, depending on the situation. The wheel is typically installed on top of the MIV and can be turned by hand to open or close the valve manually. In addition, the wheel is connected to an electric motor that can be used to open or close the valve automatically.
In the event of an electrical failure or malfunction, the Electric/Manual Override Wheel allows the MIV to be operated manually, ensuring that the pump can be isolated from the system if necessary. It provides an additional layer of safety and reliability, helping to ensure that the fire pump system remains functional even in challenging situations.
