U.S. Solid - Motorized Ball Valve- 1/2inches Brass Features
-
2-WIRE REVERSE POLARITY - The solenoid valve operates on a 2-wire reverse polarity mechanism. The valve gets activated and opens when the two wires are connected. Conversely, when these wires are connected inversely, the valve closes. However, if the wires are disconnected, the valve remains static and neither opens nor closes.
-
NPT THREADING-1/2” thread, manufactured and measured according to National Pipe Thread standards; This electrical ball valve is full port, meaning the bore in the ball is a full 1/2”; This minimizes pressure loss through the valve; Home automation systems integrate beautifully with this ball valve
-
9V-24V DC- Works effectively over entire voltage range; Will open or close valve in 3-5 seconds; Limit switch cuts off power after valve is fully open or fully closed; Ideal for projects where an automatic return to the closed position is not desired
-
RELIABLE AND SAFE- Most metal in this valve is made of brass; This durable metal is built to last; This valve comes rated with an 80,000-1000,000 cycle lifespan
-
ALTERNATIVE TO SOLENOID VALVES- Automatically cuts off power once fully open or fully closed; This reduces likelihood of overheating, making it a great alternative to solenoid valves for projects where a valve needs to be open for an extended period of time
About U.S. Solid - Motorized Ball Valve- 1/2inches Brass
This 1/2” brass motorized ball valve is affordable enough for the home hobbyist, while durable enough for titans of industry. The valve body and stem are made of durable brass. It actuates using 9V to 24V of DC power, and will fully open or fully close in 3-5 seconds. Once in position, it automatically stops using energy. This is important as it will never overheat.This is a key difference between motorized ball valves and solenoid valves. Most solenoid valves are constantly energized, while these electrical ball valves are not, making them a safer and more eco-friendly option. The attention to detail in this valve extends beyond the metal. The casing is rated as IP65. This ingress protection rating is used to define how well the casing does at sealing. For U.S. Solid motorized ball valves, they have the highest IP rating possible against solids (6), representing a seal that protects against all solids, even dust. For water, the rating (5) represents seal protection against water spray from all directions. This means the casing and body are all built to last. Motorized ball valves have a variety of interesting and convenient uses. Many choose to use them in home water systems. They are also a great tool for use in home automation projects. Automatized irrigation systems will often use several of these valves, and this valve is a great choice for that usage. Lastly, all of the U.S. Solid motorized ball valves work well with Arduino automation systems.
