Valves Steam/Heated Water Solenoid Valve
A selection of 2 and 3 port solenoid process valves designed for steam and heated water applications.
VX2*5, Single Unit, Direct Operated 2 Port Solenoid Valve for Steam
The VX2 for steam (up to 183 °C) is available with brass and stainless steel body. Three body sizes are available, with port size ranges from 1/8 to 1/2 inch. High temperature FKM seal and Class H coil insulation are standard. Flow rate ranges from Cv of 0.23 to 2.21.
VXZ2*5, Pilot Operated, 2 Port Solenoid Valve for Heated Water, Single Unit
The VXZ series for heated water is a 2 port, pilot operated solenoid valve capable of operating at higher differential pressures by maintaining a zero differential pressure on the seat. The molded coil offers low power consumption, long life and high reliability. EDPM seal and Class H coil insulation type are standard. Available for port size 1/4 to 1 inch. Flow rate ranges from Cv of 1.9 to 10.2
VXS2, Pilot Operated 2 Port Solenoid Valve for Steam
VXS 2 port solenoid valve for steam is compact and lightweight, designed to operate with no need for differential pressure. The VXS is considerably quieter than similar valves due to its special construction and full wave rectifier type solenoid. A piston main valve and special FKM material for both the valve and seal help reduce internal leakage to 1.0 cm³/min or less, and improve life cycle and valve reliability. The VXS valve series is RoHS compliant and meets IP65 enclosure guidelines.
VXD2*5, Pilot Operated, 2 Port Solenoid Valve for Heated Water
SMC's updated VXD series for heated water (up to 99°C) is a pilot operated, 2 port solenoid valve. Standard EPDM seal material and Class H coil insulation to suit the high fluid temperature application. Available in brass and stainless steel. Flow rate ranges from Cv of 1.9 to 49
VX3 Single Unit, Direct Operated 3 Port Solenoid Valve
The VX3 3 port solenoid valve series uses a rugged, pilot-operated disk assembly which is engineered to regulate a large cross-section of demanding fluids, including air, gas, steam, water, and thick oils. It is typically purchased by industrial professionals dealing with harsh fluids and demanding environments such chemical engineers who need to transport volatile liquids, thick lubricants, or corrosive chemical solutions and contractors who spec components for high-temperature mechanical rooms, commercial steam lines, and facility heating loops. Because the VX3 can be highly customized with specialized metals and seals, it acts as a workhorse in diverse, heavy-duty industries: chemical refineries, automotive manufacturing, and steel manufacturing, to name a few. By selecting the proper seal material and body metal, the same valve family can be safely deployed for air, water, oil, or steam.
