Abstract: A valve in conjunction with an actuator has a valve position indicator coupled to the actuator. The valve position indicator has an indicator cover mounted over an indicator mounting surface, an array of LED lights arranged on the indicator mounting surface, and a mirror mounted internal and concentric to the indicator cover. A sensor in communication with the actuator and the plurality of LED lights communicates the position of the valve to the plurality of LED lights. The plurality of LED lights may illuminate to indicate an incremental degree that the valve is open, if any, and/or indicate by color the direction that the opening (or respective closing) of the valve is changing. In another embodiment with or without the mirror equiangular spaced single points of light each have one high intensity LED oriented to emit light horizontally and one high intensity LED oriented to emit light vertically.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to an embodiment of a valve position indicator having an indicator cover having at least one window and a rotor configured to be at least partially within the indicator cover. The rotor has an indicator surface with one or more position indicators wherein at least one of the position indicators is configured to align with the window on the indicator cover, thus indicating the position of a valve. A light may be positioned proximate the rotor and configured to illuminate the position indicator. The valve position indicator may also include an array of LED lights bordering the rim of the indicator cover. The valve position indicator may alternatively include the array of LED lights without the indicator cover.
