Motorized Ball Valve- 1/4" Stainless Steel Ball Features
-
SAFE AND RELIABLE- Made of SS304 steel, with NSF certification, this ball valve is safe for drinking water; Lifespan is 80,000-100,000 cycles.
-
NPT THREADING-1/4” Stainless steel threading, manufactured and measured according to National Pipe Thread standards; This electrical ball valve is standard port, meaning the bore in the ball is a little less than 1/4”; 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; Limit switch minimizes power after valve is fully open; Ideal for projects where an automatic return is necessary
-
2 WIRE AUTOMATIC RETURN SETUP- Simple two wire connection, valve largely de-energizes after opening; Returns to fully closed if power is removed
-
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
-
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 Motorized Ball Valve- 1/4" Stainless Steel Ball
This 1/4'' stainless steel motorized ball valve from U.S. Solid comes in a water safe stainless steel. It is a great option for the DIY project, but strong enough for big businesses. The stem and body of the valve are comprised of SS304 stainless steel, which is safe for drinking water. This is key, since many people use these valves in their home water systems.The valve actuates with 9-24V of AC or DC power. When energized, it will open fully in 3-5 seconds. Since this valve is a normally closed (N/C) ball valve, it will automatically return to a closed position when the power source is eliminated. When fully opened, a limit switch keeps the amount of power used by the valve to a miniscule levels. This makes it a much more environmentally friendly option than most solenoid valves. Most solenoid valves are fully energized when opened, which can lead to problems and overheating when run continuously. This valve draws such low levels of power once fully opened that it can be run continuously and never overheat.The stem on this valve comes with a robust torque rating of 2 N m. This is important, though often overlooked. The stem is a frequent point of failure for valves, and having a strong stem helps to ensure a lifetime of quality performance.There are many different potential uses for this motorized ball valve. While not quick acting, it is sturdy and resilient once energized. They can also work effectively even with gravity flow operations, such as those used in some auxiliary fuel tank setups.Specifications Valve Material: SS304 Ball Seat: PTFE Seal: EPDM Close/Open Time: 3-5 Seconds Working Voltage: 9-24V AC/DC Max Power: 2W Max Torque: 2 N m Max Pressure: 1.0Mpa Temperature range for Flow Medium: 0°C to 90°C Ambient Temperature Range: -10°C to 40°C Enclosure Rating: IP65 Life Expectancy: 80,000-100,000 Cycles Bore Type: Full Thread Type: NPT
