Product Overview

RSSM-3 is currently our smallest brass-bodied valve in our brass valve line. This quarter-inch valve is a two-way, direct-acting valve with a normally closed operating position. This means that there are two ports through which media flows; the valve will open when energized and allow media to pass through. Taking the energy away from the valve will close it and stop the flow. This 1/4 inch valve works ideally with air, other pneumatic applications, as well as water. It works across various other low-viscosity media such as hot water, gas, diesel fuel, alcohol, kerosene, Freon, weak acids, and weak alkali. The valve features a heavy-duty, solid brass body that’s sure to last in the most strenuous projects.

This specific valve has a port size that is 1/4” inch female NPT threaded, which is US standard. The orifice size is 2.5 mm, and the Cv value is 0.2. This valve is not recommended for gravity-fed systems because of the small orifice size. The seal material is Viton rubber.

This specific valve has a 24V AC coil with a voltage range that is -+ 10. The coil head is fitted with a 14’’ wire lead that can easily be connected with your own choice of terminals. The top of the coil features a label that indicates the valve type and specifications. Its response time is very low; in fact, it acts in less than one second, making it a great choice for all types of applications.
