ABSTRACT:
A valve lockout assembly for preventing mistaken operation of a valve includes an outer hub and an inner collar that are concentrically disposed about the actuating shaft of a valve. The outer hub engages the valve cover which prevents the hub's rotation. The inner collar, which is coupled to the actuating shaft, is also coupled to the hub at selected angular positions corresponding to fully opened and closed positions of the valve.
