U.S. Solid 1/2" 24V AC Normally Closed Solenoid Valve, VITON gasket, Solid Brass
The U.S. Solid electric solenoid valve features a durable brass body, suitable for outdoor but not underwater use. It's favored by customers for DIY projects, moderate temperature and chemical applications, as well as for controlling flow in irrigation, reverse osmosis, and motorcycle systems.
Direction of the Flow
Most U.S. Solid Valves are UNIDIRECTIONAL
Make a note of the arrow on your valve. Most U.S. Solid valves are unidirectional. This means they are intended to flow in one direction only, in the direction of the arrow. If connected in opposite directions, the valve will not actuate properly (will not close for Normally Closed valves). Additionally, be sure the medium passing through is filtered. If not, particles will cling to the gasket over time, which can cause it to not seal properly.
THREADING
U.S. Solid Valves follow National Standards for pipe thread. We suggest the use of Teflon tape to ensure the seal of the NPT threading. The tapered male and female thread form angled surfaces that with increased torque squeeze the Teflon tape resulting in a tight seal.
OVERHEATING
These valves should be energized for less than 8 hours. While most do not have more than 18W of power, the coils are in a contained area and can burn out if energized for too long. We suggest a computer fan to keep the coil cool if necessary to energize continuously for extended periods.
POLARITY
- For valves with 2 wires, the valve will actuate regardless of which terminal each wire is connected to (+ or -). Some units include a ground wire. Open up the connector and look for the ground symbol (as shown in the corner).
- For valves with a ground wire, please be sure to ground the valve.
GASOLINE and PRESSURE WARNING
- NBR gaskets should not be used with gasoline, kerosene, or other petroleum products. If your valve requires contact with these substances, opt for one with a VITON gasket.
- All solenoid valves need some pressure to actuate. This is especially true of pilot or indirectly operated valves.

Nulla da eccepire, montati su una barca per gli scicquoni, costano un decimo del ricambiò originale e per ora si comportano esattamente allo stesso modo, parti idrauliche in metallo apparentemente di buona qualità, ottimi

Ho perso una giornata di lavoro ed anche credibilità nei confronti del cliente in quanto davanti a lui ho dovuto mostrare l’articolo rotto(imballaggio era perfetto).

I bought these and isntalled them on a manifold. All four failed without ever opening once. Now I have to tear it all back out. Super frustrating. Installation and design took a few months, so past return date, guess I have to eat this one. Would not recommend these valves.

I installed this and a natural gas regulator on a 75,000 btu Bryant unit heater from the middle 70’s. This valve seems to work perfect. It is fairly quiet except for sometimes the metal cover contacts the coil and creates an electrical buzzing noise. This is easily fixed by just bending the black metal cover. For the price I can’t really complain. If you use this for gas like I did then make sure that you have some sort of thermocouple safety installed so that this valve will not open unless a pilot light is on and the pilot flame is burning properly.

En apparence, ça semble plutôt robuste et bien fait. Seulement lorsqu’on l’alimente, l’appareil émet un ronflement mais la vanne ne s’ouvre pas.J’espère être tombé sur une mauvaise série mais que de temps perdu.J’ai fini par acheter une electrovanne chinoise qui fonctionne parfaitement.En cas de problème bien nettoyer la vanne, cela ne règle pas toujours tous les problèmes mais ça peut y contribuer.

Created a AC mister setup with this, works great. Have had no issues and does not leak. Yes I know it voids warranty, no I don't have a warranty, yes I save crazy amounts of KW, yes I wish I had done this sooner.

The valve came to me in two day freight. This valve is heavy duty. Very good workmanship I am hooking it up to my welder. It will control argon gas for my welder.,
