GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The FLP-PB1 has been designed for use with The FLP-PB1 is manufactured in cast aluminium
electric actuators requiring isolation of power and and includes fixtures for use in mounting the
looped data highway connections without Pakbox on either a wall or pipe bracket. Cable
disturbing the continuity of the data highway. It is gland access is allowed for on three sides and the
ideally suited to use on the Pakscan 2 wire system maximum cable gland size permitted is 40 mm.
where maintaining loop continuity is important
when an actuator is out of service. The FLP-PB1 assembly is certified for use in a
Hazardous area and may therefore be placed
The action of turning the isolator handle to the “off” close to the actuator.
position simultaneously isolates the power and
data highway from the actuator while bridging the
data highway to maintain loop continuity. Suitable
for use on any data highway the FLP-PB1 ensures
system integrity at all times.

A padlocking facility is provided for securing the

isolator handle in either the “on” or “off” position to
further increase plant safety.
