Product Information

Full details

This Keenso DC 12V Water Solenoid Valve is designed for users of water purification systems needing a reliable, normally closed valve to control water flow. Its key benefit is automatic water shut-off, preventing leaks and ensuring efficient operation, though its plastic construction might be a consideration for high-pressure environments. It features a pure copper coil for conductivity and is built for longevity.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this valve suitable for high-pressure systems?

This valve is primarily designed for water purification systems, which typically operate at lower pressures. While it can handle standard household water pressure, it may not be suitable for high-pressure industrial applications.

Can the negative and positive ports be connected freely?

Yes, for the basic operation of this solenoid valve, the negative and positive terminals on the coil can be connected freely without affecting its function.

What type of pipe does this valve connect to?

This solenoid valve is designed to connect to 3/8" PE (polyethylene) pipes, commonly used in water filtration and purification systems.

How do I clean the solenoid valve?

You can clean the exterior of the valve with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid submerging the electrical components or using harsh cleaning chemicals. Ensure it is dry before re-energizing.

What is the power requirement for this valve?

The valve requires a DC 12V power supply to operate.

What does 'Normally Close' mean?

'Normally Close' means the valve remains shut (closed) and blocks water flow when no power is applied to the solenoid. It opens only when 12V DC power is supplied.

What is the warranty period?

Please refer to the specific purchase details or contact customer service for warranty information, as it may vary by retailer.

Troubleshooting

Valve does not open or close

Verify that the 12V DC power supply is connected correctly and providing adequate voltage. Check wire connections to the solenoid. Ensure there are no blockages in the water line.

Water leakage from connections

Ensure the 3/8" PE pipes are securely attached to the quick connect fittings. Check for any damage to the fittings or the pipe ends. Re-seat the pipe firmly.

Valve is noisy during operation

Slight humming is normal when energized. Excessive clicking or grinding may indicate low voltage, internal obstruction, or wear. Ensure proper power supply and check for debris.

No water flow when powered

Confirm the valve is installed in the correct direction of water flow if applicable (though this model is generally bi-directional for control). Check for internal obstructions within the valve mechanism. Ensure power is reaching the solenoid.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Automatically controls water flow to prevent leaks.
  • Easy to install with quick connect fittings.
  • Efficient operation due to pure copper coil.
  • Long service life for consistent performance.
  • Suitable for standard water purifier systems.

Cons

  • Primarily plastic construction may not be suitable for very high-pressure or industrial applications.
  • Requires a 12V DC power source.
  • Designed specifically for 3/8" pipes; not a universal fit.
  • Not intended for use with corrosive liquids.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the 12V DC power source is disconnected.
  2. Identify the water inlet and outlet ports on the valve.
  3. Attach the 3/8" PE pipe to the quick connect fittings on both ports. Ensure a secure connection.
  4. Connect the positive and negative wires from the 12V DC power source to the corresponding terminals on the solenoid coil. Polarity is not critical for basic operation.
  5. Once installed, connect the power source to test operation.

Compatibility:

  • This valve is designed for 3/8" PE (polyethylene) pipes.
  • Requires a stable 12V DC power supply.
  • Suitable for use with clean water applications, such as water purifiers.

Care:

  • Periodically check connections for leaks.
  • Keep the valve clean and free from dust or debris.
  • Avoid exposing the valve to extreme temperatures or direct sunlight for prolonged periods.
