Solenoid Valve | Nylon Body 

Our direct-acting solenoid valves are 1/2" female NPT and designed to fit 1/2" copper or CPV plastic tubing. Solenoid valves are controlled by coin timers. The shower timer signals the solenoid valve to turn the hot water off or on. 

How Solenoid Valves Work 

1. Coin Timer: This device controls how long something works based on the coins you insert. When you put in a coin, it sends a signal to start a timer.

2. Electrical Signal: When you put a coin into the coin timer, it sends an electrical signal to the solenoid valve. This signal tells the solenoid valve to open. 

3. Solenoid Valve Opens: When the solenoid valve gets the signal, it opens up and lets water (or gas) flow through. For example, in a coin-operated shower, the water will start flowing.

4. Timer Runs: The coin timer keeps track of how long the valve should stay open based on the amount of money inserted.

5. Valve Closes: When the time runs out, the coin timer sends another signal to the solenoid valve to close. This stops the flow of water (or gas).
