Versatile Construction and Reliable PerformanceWith nickel plated brass body, NBR diaphragm, and stainless steel internals, the PODSV-NC Series valve ensures durability in challenging environments. Its compact size and various orifice options fit a wide range of industrial applications, offering consistent response and extended life span over one million cycles.
Flexible Installation and OperationThe valve's design allows for mounting in any position, with preference for upright installation for optimal performance. Threaded ends (BSP/NPT) and optional manual override enhance its usability across diverse systems, enabling fast installation and easy maintenance.
Wide Media Compatibility and Safety FeaturesSuitable for air, water, gas, and oil, the valve's seal options (NBR, FKM, EPDM) increase chemical compatibility. The IP65 coil protection ensures operational safety in harsh conditions, supporting ambient temperatures up to 50C and pressure range of 0.5-10 Bar.
FAQ's of Pilot Operated Diaphragm Type Solenoid Valve (NC):
Q: How does the manual override function work on the PODSV-NC Series valve?
A: The manual override is an optional feature that allows users to operate the valve manually during power outages or maintenance without activating the solenoid coil. This ensures continued flow control even when electrical power is unavailable.
Q: What fluids and gases are suitable for use with this solenoid valve?
A: The valve is designed for clean liquids and gases, including air, water, oil, and gas. Its seal materials (NBR standard, with FKM or EPDM optional) offer resistance to a broad spectrum of media, expanding compatibility across many industrial fluids.
Q: When should the valve be mounted in an upright position?
A: While the valve can be mounted in any position, upright installation is preferred for optimal performance and longevity. This orientation helps prevent debris accumulation and ensures reliable pilot operation, especially in high-cycle applications.
Q: Where is the PODSV-NC Series typically used?
A: This valve is widely used in industrial automation, water treatment, pneumatic systems, HVAC, and irrigation due to its high flow rate, low noise emissions, and long life span. Its robust construction ensures reliability in demanding environments.
Q: What is the process for selecting seal material for specific media?
A: To choose the appropriate seal material, evaluate the media's chemical properties and temperature range. NBR suits most standard fluids, while FKM or EPDM seals are recommended for aggressive chemicals or higher temperature applications to maintain performance and safety.
Q: How does coil protection class IP65 benefit valve operation?
A: IP65 rated coil protection guards against dust ingress and water jets, making the valve suitable for operation in harsh and moist environments. This enhances safety, reduces downtime, and prolongs both the coil and valve's operational life.
Q: What are the benefits of the pilot operated diaphragm design in this solenoid valve?
A: Pilot operated diaphragm construction delivers high flow rates and rapid response times (less than 1 second), enabling precise control in complex systems. It reduces noise, supports longer cycle life, and handles pressures from 0.5 to 10 Bar efficiently.
