120V Normally Closed Depend-o-drain - Gray Motor Cover, Ball Valve Style
This 120V Normally Closed Depend-o-drain valve is a reliable and robust electrically actuated drain valve featuring a gray motor cover and a ball valve style internal mechanism. Designed to remain closed when no 120V AC power is applied, it opens upon receiving power to allow for efficient drainage.
Depend-o-drain valves are a trusted choice for automated drainage in various applications, particularly within:
- Commercial Laundry Equipment: For controlled water discharge in washing machines.
- Commercial Dishwashers and Warewashing Systems: To automatically drain wash and rinse cycles.
- Industrial Cleaning Equipment: For the timed release of cleaning solutions.
- Dairy Industry: As part of automated pipeline cleaning systems.
Key Features:
- 120V AC Operation: Compatible with standard 120V AC power supply.
- Normally Closed (NC): Ensures the valve remains shut and prevents flow until power is applied, crucial for preventing unintended drainage.
- Ball Valve Style: Offers a reliable and tight seal when closed and allows for good flow capacity when open. The ball valve design is known for its durability and resistance to clogging in many applications.
- Gray Motor Cover: A common identifier for certain Depend-o-drain models, potentially indicating specific features or compatibility (verify with the exact model number if available).
- Electrically Actuated: Provides automated opening and closing upon the application or removal of power.
- Durable Construction: Typically manufactured with chemical-resistant materials to withstand demanding environments and prolonged use.
- Easy Integration: Designed for straightforward installation into existing plumbing systems.
Benefits of a Normally Closed Ball Valve Depend-o-drain:
- Prevents Accidental Leaks: The normally closed configuration ensures drainage only occurs when intended.
- Reliable Shut-Off: The ball valve mechanism provides a tight and dependable seal when closed.
- Suitable for Various Fluids: Often compatible with a range of water-based and chemical solutions (always verify material compatibility for your specific application).
- Automated Operation: Allows for integration into timed or sensor-controlled drainage systems.
