Optional components Crossports 562917 MX Crossport Bar For each crossport bar used, order qty 1 of p/n 557391, 1/4 NPT pipe plug, to plug the unused outlet. Cycle Indicators p/n 563272, SPDT cycle switch assembly (switch with bracket) Mounted onto the cycle pin to provide electrical signal when valve assembly is cycling Cycle pin can be used without the cycle switch to provide visual indication. For visual indication on a standard valve, order p/n 563260, Visual Cycle Indicator Assembly For proximity switches, see next page

Proximity switches See literature L15600 for more information. Explosion-proof prox switches include 6ft, 3 conductor cable.
