    About Actuated On/Off Valves
    industrial info icon

    Choose the right automatic on/off valve based on power source, pressure, and flow rate.

    Solenoid On/Off Valves for Natural Gas, Propane, and Butane

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Contains Annotated. Solenoid On/Off Valves. Solenoid On/Off Valves for Natural Gas, Propane, and Butane.
    Install these valves in gas pipelines to control the flow of natural gas, propane, and butane to equipment. They operate on electricity to automatically start and stop flow.
    Valves are fail closed unless actuated. They don’t require a minimum pressure drop between the inlet and outlet for operation. The actuator is directly mounted to the valve body to minimize movement and reduce wear.
    IP50 Enclosure Rating—For IP50 valves, the rating applies only to the enclosure, which resists dust.
    NEMA 2 Enclosure Rating—NEMA 2 valves resist light splashing and dust.
    NEMA 4X Enclosure Rating—NEMA 4X valves resist washdowns, splashing water, corrosive liquid, and dust.

    Solenoid On/Off Valves with Exhaust Port for Natural Gas, Propane, and Butane

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Contains Annotated. Solenoid On/Off Valves. Solenoid On/Off Valves with Exhaust Port for Natural Gas, Propane, and Butane.
    Often used to control single-acting, spring-return air cylinders, these valves have a third threaded port to exhaust media. They operate on electricity to automatically start and stop flow.
    Valves are fail closed and exhaust media unless actuated; when actuated, they close the exhaust port and reverse the direction of flow to send media to equipment. They don’t require a minimum pressure drop between the inlet and outlet for operation. Body is 303 stainless steel for good corrosion resistance. Coils are rated IP69 for protection against dust and high-temperature, high-pressure washdowns. The actuator is directly mounted to the valve body to minimize movement and reduce wear.
    Flow Coefficient (Cv)—Flow coefficient (Cv) is the amount of water (in gallons per minute) at 60° F that will flow through a fully open valve with a difference of 1 psi between the inlet and the outlet.
