3/8'' 110V AC Electric Stainless Steel Solenoid Valve N/O
Technical Details
Product Overview
The SZW-10K-110VAC is a heavy-duty 3/8" 304 stainless steel solenoid valve engineered for automated, fail-open fluid control in 110V/120V AC systems. Featuring a Viton® (FKM) diaphragm seal and a direct-assisted lift mechanism, this 2-way Normally Open (N/O) valve remains open when de-energized to permit unrestricted flow at 0 PSI, closing instantly when power is applied.
Normally Open Application & Media Notice:
-
-
- This valve is Normally Open (remains open when de-energized and closes when energized). It is designed specifically for fail-open setups, gravity-fed drains, freeze-protection loops, and safety bypasses.
- Equipped with a Viton® (FKM) diaphragm, it is rated for media up to 250°F, diesel fuel, glycol, weak acids, and harsh fluids.
- Always verify chemical compatibility before installation.
-
Key Features
-
304 Stainless Steel & Viton® Construction: Exceptional corrosion, chemical, and temperature resistance for harsh fluids, potable water, and industrial environments.
-
Normally Open (Fail-Open) Operation: Keeps fluid flowing or lines drained during power outages—ideal for emergency relief and gravity dump lines.
-
Zero Differential Operation: Direct-assisted design operates reliably from 0 psi (gravity feed) up to maximum working pressure.
-
110V/120V AC Power with DIN Connector: Plugs directly into standard utility line voltage; includes an IP65-rated DIN plug for secure, protected wiring.
-
Fast-Acting Response & 100% Duty Cycle: Closes in under one second when energized and rated for continuous-duty operation.
Common Applications
-
Gravity-fed water drainage, reservoir dump valves, and freeze-protection drain-down lines
-
Emergency cooling water bypass, solar thermal overheat dumping, and HVAC drain systems
-
Reverse osmosis (RO) automated flush valves, process water, and chemical bypass loops
-
Gas purging lines, compressed air dump loops, and industrial washdown controls
-
OEM machinery automation requiring fail-open safety conditions
Installation
- Align media flow with the directional arrow cast into the stainless body.
- Secure electrical connections using the included DIN connector housing.
- For optimal service life, especially in zero-pressure or gravity-fed drain applications, mount the valve with the coil facing upward.
- Install an inline strainer upstream to keep sediment off the Viton® seat.
