Electric Solenoid Valve- 1/4" 12V DC Solenoid Valve Plastic (Nylon) Body Normally Closed, NBR SEAL
This normally closed (N/C) solenoid valve is constructed with a Nylon engineering plastic body, 1/4" female threaded (NPT) connections, and nitrile rubber (NBR) seals. It is suitable for use with hot or cold water, natural gas, air, very low viscosity fluids (< 20 cst), and oils. The solenoid valves have a rating of IP65, which means they can withstand spray from water. However, if permanently installed outdoors, it is recommended that you enclose the valves in some protective housing. Not for use underwater. Customers choose this general purpose valve for various applications including DIY projects, moderate temperature applications, water exchange for aquariums, air horn, or bleeding moisture from an air tank.

OVERHEATING WARNING: This solenoid valve is not designed for continuous operation (not a 100% duty cycle). While energized, under normal operating conditions, the solenoid valve will get HOT. The coil will reach a maximum temperature of about 176°F (80℃), which is fully compliant with national standards. If energized continuously for more than 8 hours, the coil may burn.
