3/8'' 12V DC Electric Brass Solenoid Valve
Technical Details
Product Overview
The 3/8" 12V DC Electric Brass Solenoid Valve, model BZW-10, is part of our brass valve line and is a two-way, semi-direct lift valve with a normally closed operating position. This means there are two ports through which media flows, and the valve will open when energized to allow media to pass. Removing energy from the valve will close it and stop the flow. It works across various media such as hot water, air, gas, diesel fuel, Freon, weak acids, and weak alkali. The valve features a heavy-duty, solid brass body that’s built to last even in the most strenuous projects.
The port size is 3/8” female NPT threaded. This electric solenoid valve can handle low-viscosity fluids below 20 cst. The orifice size is 15mm, and the Cv value is 4.8. It can withstand pressure up to 115 psi (8 bar) and temperatures as low as 15°F and as high as 250°F. The seal material is FKM (Viton®) for excellent chemical resistance.
This specific valve includes a 12 Volt DC coil with a ±10% voltage range. The coil head is fitted with a 5" wire lead that can easily be connected to your preferred terminals. The top of the coil features a label indicating the valve type and specifications. Its response time is extremely fast—less than one second—making it a great choice for all types of applications.
This model can be mounted vertically or horizontally and features a conveniently positioned arrow on the body to indicate the direction of flow. It should not be mounted upside down with the coil underneath the valve.
