Description

Prevost ATU Series Manual Shut-Off Valve

The Modular Safety Gateway for Your FRL System

Secure your pneumatic equipment and ensure operator safety with the Prevost ALTO (ATU) Series Manual Shut-Off Valve. Designed specifically to integrate seamlessly with the ALTO air preparation line, this valve acts as the primary isolation point for your filter, regulator, and lubricator assembly.

Unlike standalone ball valves, this unit is a modular block that connects directly to your ATU filters or regulators using the ALTO connection kits. It features a high-visibility, 3-way mechanism: when closed, it not only blocks the incoming air supply but also automatically vents the downstream pressure to the atmosphere, rendering the system safe for maintenance. The robust control knob is designed with integrated holes to accept safety padlocks, ensuring full compliance with OSHA Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) regulations.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Seamless Modular Integration: Designed to bolt directly to Prevost ALTO filters, regulators, and lubricators, creating a clean, unified, and space-saving air treatment assembly.
  • 3-Way Safety Exhaust: Instantly depressurizes the downstream air line when turned to the “Off” position, preventing accidental tool cycling during service.
  • Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) Ready: The control knob slides or pushes to reveal padlock holes, allowing maintenance staff to physically lock the air supply in the “Off” position.
  • High Visibility Control: Features a distinct red control knob or slide (depending on model size) for immediate identification of the air isolation point.
  • Flexible Installation: Can be installed as a standalone unit or joined with other ATU modules using wall brackets and joining kits.

Ideal Applications

  • FRL Isolation: Installed as the very first component in an ALTO assembly to allow safe filter changes without shutting down the main plant air.
  • Machine Safety: Providing a dedicated, lockable air cut-off point right at the operator station.
  • System Maintenance: Ensuring zero energy state (pneumatic) before servicing tools or machinery.

Installation Tip: This valve is typically installed on the inlet (left) side of your FRL assembly. For the quietest operation, we recommend threading a small sintered bronze silencer into the exhaust port (usually on the bottom or back of the unit) to dampen the noise of the air releasing.
