1" DC 12V Solenoid Valve N/C Normally Closed Water Inlet Flow Switch

Great valve, used for automated watering system. It holds a constant 60psi without leaking when off. It has opened and closed with my timer without fail for 4 months now.

It works perfect for what I needed it.

Example of "you get what you pay for"..Pass on this unless you want to redo in a short time.

This is NOT 1/2" thread, making it very easy to cross-thread fittings. It must be a metric size near 1/2".

Works well!

Works as described. You will need 11 v to trigger the selonoid. I needed this for a gravity feed application. It is more designed for constant pressure like in house plumbing.

I wanted the valve to stop & start the flow in my aquarium in case of an overflow, It didn't seem to close tight the water still flows.

Installed to allow remote on/off of hot water. Works fine with water temperature up to 50C, no problems in first couple of months so far.

Used this on a sensor tap system where the exsisting 12v solenoid had failed. Still working after being fitted months ago.

Rather than actively opening and closing the valve when powered, this relies on water pressure to open when powered and likely a spring of some kind to close it when unpowered.In my case this meant that it constrained flow when it was supposed to be open, and then failed to completely close, leaking significantly.Don't buy

Intended use was to empty a water tank but the extremely slow flow rate prevented this. With a pressure of a few PSI the rate was about one drop a minute. Not good for 1\2 inch connections provided with this unit.
