2/2-Way Direct Acting Solenoid Valve for Steam

Overview

A direct acting 2/2 way solenoid valve designed for steam and hot water applications up to 9 bar pressure, configured normally closed and energised to open. The solenoid acts directly on the valve element without an intermediate pilot stage, giving fast, responsive switching. Rated up to 150°C for steam and 95°C for hot water in a compact, screwed-end body. Supplied, sized and serviced across Nepal.

Features & Benefits

• ✓Direct acting mechanism eliminates the pilot stage entirely, so the valve responds the instant the coil is energised rather than waiting for a pilot signal to build differential pressure across a diaphragm or piston, which matters where fast, deterministic shutoff timing is required.
• ✓150°C steam rating with 95°C for hot water is a genuine functional split — this valve handles real steam service at a meaningfully higher temperature than an 85°C pilot diaphragm model, making it the correct choice when steam (not just hot water) is the actual media.
• ✓Normally closed, energised-to-open configuration is the standard fail-safe choice for steam isolation, since loss of power automatically shuts the valve and prevents uncontrolled steam release.
• ✓9 bar working pressure covers most low and medium pressure steam distribution and hot water heating circuits without requiring a piston-operated high-pressure solenoid valve.
• ✓CF8/CF8M stainless body resists the scaling and corrosion typical of steam condensate service, giving longer service life than a brass or cast iron body in the same duty.
• ✓Compact screwed-end body at 1/2 to 3/4 inch sizes suits small-bore steam trace, heat exchanger control, and instrument line applications where space is limited.
