INTRODUCTION
A solenoid valve is a key component in fluid control systems, used in applications like irrigation, combustion engines, and pneumatic systems. It uses an electrical signal to activate a solenoid coil, generating a magnetic field that moves a plunger to open or close the valve. This allows for quick and precise control of fluid or gas flow, making solenoid valves essential for efficient system operation.Our latest U.S. Solid semi-direct solenoid valve series has been redesigned for better efficiency, featuring a more compact design and enhanced mechanical durability.

POLARITY When dealing with valves equipped with two wires, an important characteristic to note is their polarity - insensitive design. This means that the valve will actuate correctly regardless of which terminal each wire is connected to. Whether a wire is attached to the positive (+) or negative (-) terminal makes no difference in the valve’s operation. However, it’s essential to be aware that some valve units incorporate an additional ground wire.To determine if your valve has a ground wire, you’ll need to open up the connector.For valves with a ground wire, proper grounding is crucial. |

Valve Attributes
Ingress - Protection Rating:
The valves have an ingress - protection rating of IP67. The first digit 6 indicates complete dust - tightness. The second digit 7 means protection against immersion in water up to 1 meter in depth. They are applicable to a wide array of harsh and complex environments. Capable of effectively fending off dust and water intrusion, they ensure reliable operation under extremely challenging circumstances.
FAQ
1. What is the Waterproof Rating of this valve?
The motor's housing is rated at IP67 for ingress protection. If permanently installed outdoors, it is recommended to place it under a shelter or in a protective box to prevent prolonged exposure to rain.
2. Can these solenoid valves be used continuously for extended periods?
These valves should be energized for less than 8 hours. While most do not exceed 18W of power, the coils are in a contained area and can burn out if energized for too long. We recommend using a computer fan to keep the coil cool if continuous operation is necessary.
3.How long should you wait between two consecutive five-hour uses of our solenoid valve?
It is recommended to allow about 20 minutes of cooling time between two consecutive 5-hour operating sessions. The exact cooling time may vary depending on ambient temperature and operating conditions.
4.Can this be used for Drinking Water?
NO. This motorized ball valve is made of brass, which contains lead, should not be used for drinking water.
5.Can it be used outdoors?
While the solenoid valves have an IP67 rating, making them resistant to water spray, it is recommended to enclose the valve in a protective housing if permanently installed outdoors to ensure long-term durability.
