Valcor Engineering Corporation Solenoid Valves, 2-Way Direct Acting V14500 Series

The V14500 Series solenoid valves from Valcor Engineering Corporation are direct acting, 2-way shut-off valves designed for inline porting. They feature a gate-type design with a "Floating Seal" principle, which utilizes an optically flat seal disc against a flat seat to ensure tight sealing and minimize contamination effects. The valves are lightweight and compact, weighing approximately 1.25 lbs. These valves are suitable for a variety of non-corrosive fluids and gases, making them applicable in numerous aircraft fuel systems. They are available in normally closed and normally open configurations, with a maximum operating pressure of 1000 PSIG and a proof pressure of 1500 PSIG. The temperature range for standard static seals is from -65¬8F to +165¬8F, while special static seals can withstand temperatures up to 450¬8F. The valves are designed to operate with a voltage range of 18 to 30 VDC and have a continuous or intermittent duty cycle. Engineers considering the V14500 Series should note its reliability due to its simple construction, which includes only two moving parts, and its effective performance in demanding environments.
