1/8" 12V DC Stainless Electric Solenoid Valve
Technical Details
Product Overview
The SS-2J-12VDC is a compact, direct-acting 1/8" stainless steel solenoid valve engineered for reliable, zero-differential flow control in 12V DC mobile, solar, and battery-powered applications. Built with a solid stainless steel body and a high-performance Viton (FKM) seal, this 2-way normally closed valve operates seamlessly from 0 PSI up to its maximum pressure rating, opening instantly when energized by a 12V DC power supply.
Media Compatibility Notice:
-
-
- Equipped with a premium Viton® (FKM) seal, this valve is rated for hot water up to 250°F, diesel fuel, oils, weak acids, and aggressive chemicals that degrade standard NBR rubber.
- Always verify chemical compatibility with both the stainless body and Viton seal before installation.
-
Key Features
-
Stainless Steel & Viton Construction: Maximum chemical, corrosion, and temperature resistance for demanding liquids and gases.
-
12V DC Mobile/Off-Grid Compatibility: Connects directly to 12V batteries, vehicle power, solar charge controllers, and mobile automation circuits.
-
Zero Differential Operation: Direct-acting design opens and closes instantly at 0 PSI without requiring minimum line pressure.
-
Normally Closed Safety: Valve remains closed during power loss to automatically shut off media flow.
-
Compact Footprint: 1/8" female NPT ports fit tight machinery enclosures, automotive engine bays, and small manifolds.
Common Applications
-
Automotive water-methanol injection, auxiliary diesel fuel transfer, and boost control
-
RV, marine, and mobile food truck plumbing and high-temp beverage loops
-
Solar-powered irrigation, fertigation, and off-grid fluid control
-
Remote environmental monitoring, gas sampling, and analytical equipment
-
Laboratory fluid handling, chemical dosing, and compressed air systems
Installation
- Align media flow with the directional arrow cast into the stainless valve body.
- The 12V DC wire leads are non-polarized and may be connected in either orientation.
- For optimal performance and service life, mount the valve with the coil facing upward.
- Install an inline filter upstream to keep debris off the Viton seal.
