U.S. Solid Motorized Ball Valve- 1/2inches Features
-
SAFE AND RELIABLE- The valve body is made of SS304 steel, with NSF certification, this ball valve is safe for drinking water; Lifespan is 80,000-100,000 cycles.
-
NPT THREADING- ½" Stainless steel threading, 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 ½”; This minimizes pressure loss through the valve; Perfect for home automation projects
-
9V-24V AC/DC- Works effectively over entire voltage range; Will open or close valve in 3-5 seconds; No power expended once fully open or fully closed
-
3 WIRE, 2 POINT CONTROL SETUP- Simple three wire connection, with two points of control; No energy expended once in position
-
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
-
Please Note: The solenoid valve may experience leaks as a result of impurities accumulated over multiple uses. This issue can be resolved by disassembling the valve and thoroughly cleaning it.
-
If permanently installed outdoors, it is recommended to place it under a shelter or in a protective box to prevent prolonged exposure to rain.
About U.S. Solid Motorized Ball Valve- 1/2inches
This ½" stainless steel 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 SS304 steel, which is lead free and safe for drinking water. It actuates using 9V to 24V of AC or 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. Home brewery systems typically need several of these valves, and the SS304 is great for fermented liquids. Lastly, all of the U.S. Solid motorized ball valves work well with Arduino automation systems.
