18A23 Magnatrol Solenoid Valve (G18A23SC-ACBW)

18A23 Magnatrol Solenoid Valve (G18A23SC-ACBW) 3/4″npt NC 120V 0/50# 212F LIQ

Overview

The Magnatrol 18A23 is a discontinued two-way, full port, bronze solenoid valve designed for general purpose fluid control. It features a Normally Closed (N/C) operation, meaning the valve opens when the coil is energized (Energize to Open) and closes when power is de-energized. This internal pilot-operated or direct-acting valve is designed to operate from zero to its maximum differential pressure, requiring no differential pressure to open. It is constructed to be packless, ensuring dependable service.

Features

• Operation: Normally Closed (N/C), opening upon coil energization.
• Construction: Cast Bronze body with Globe Pattern, NPT ends, and packless design.
• Full Port: Provides a straight-thru design for flow.
• Coil: Encapsulated Class B coil is standard (Class H available) and designed for continuous duty with both AC and DC voltages.
• Pressure Operation: No differential pressure is required for the valve to open.
• Installation: Must be mounted in a horizontal pipe with the solenoid enclosure vertical and on top.
