12 Vdc 1/2 inch Solenoid Valve

Solenoid valve for shutting off water flow

SKU 8300-YXVMA422

Description

Solenoid valve (normally closed) suitable for shutting off water flow (do not use with other liquids). It has a plastic body, a 12 Vdc coil and 1/2 inch threaded fittings. Working pressure is 0.02 to 0.8 MPa (0.2 to 8 bar), which gives a flow of 3 litres/minute at 0.02Mpa, 12 litres/minute at 0.1Mpa, 35 litres/minute at 0.8Mpa.

N.B. this is not a gravity-feed solenoid, which means you will need enough water pressure to open the valve fully.
