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- 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; 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
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.
The U.S. Solid ½" motorized ball valve in stainless steel with automatic return is a blessing to many a home tinkerer. The body and stem on this valve are made of SS304 stainless steel. This material is safe for drinking water, which is important since water systems are one of the most common uses for motorized ball valves. The valve will actuate when 9V to 24V of AC or DC power are brought to it. In this automatic return valve, the valve is Normally Closed. When energized, it will open in 3-5 seconds. Afterwards, limit switches will keep the energy output to a negligible amount. If power gets cut out, the valve will again return to a closed position. Most solenoid valves are fully energized whilst open, which can lead to overheating. This valve takes in such little energy once fully opened, that it will NEVER overheat. Auto return valves are an important option. If being used to control your water system, it is important that it shuts off automatically in case of a power outage. Additionally, this valve comes with an IP rating of 65. This ingress protection level means the casing will keep the electronics free of any dust, and is safe even when being sprayed with water from any direction. The applications of motorized ball valves are varied. They can be used in HVAC systems, for water recirculation, or in conjunction with any number of home automation devices. This versatility, along with the superior craftsmanship, means that U.S. Solid motorized ball valves will become your valve of choice going forward.
