The RedHat Next Generation line of solenoid valves is now available with Class I, Div. 2 approval. The certification makes the valves ideal for use in hazardous locations and for watertight applications. In addition, the valves meet all NEMA Types 1 through 4X requirements for water-tight and dust-tight operation. With new power management technology and robust advanced electronics, the valve accepts both AC and DC voltages, while improving performance. Its 2-W power consumption achieves the same performance as a 17-W AC solenoid valve. DC performance has been increased by 150% to 500% from today’s industry standards, making the valves’ DC characteristics equivalent to AC pressure and flow values. The valves are offered in three voltage ranges covering most electrical requirements — 100–240/AC or DC, 24–99/AC or DC, or 12–24/DC and include 2-, 3-, and 4-way models for use in most fluid control applications.
