The Valcor Nuclear department has created this compact size and low weight 3-way, direct-acting, nuclear-qualified solenoid valve, to be applied primarily as an air pilot control valve in nuclear power plants. It has been designed specifically to prevent the chronic operational problems associated with conventional solenoid valves currently installed in many PWR, BWR and CANDU plants. Valcor Model 70900-98 solenoid valve is ideal for use in host of safety-related, low flow solenoid valve applications. Its cool running, single coil design is both highly reliable and adaptable, offering significant improvements for a variety of applications. The versatility of Valcor’s 70900-98 valve allows for a variety of configurations, including 2-way (one port plugged), normally closed, normally open and universal modes, with AC or DC voltages.

V70900-98 Solenoid Valve Features & Benefits

The principal function of the V70900-98 Solenoid Valve is pressurizing and venting pneumatic diaphragm actuator or air cylinders under extremely harsh and difficult environmental conditions, including different types of chemical sprays.

Valcor has the V70900-98 solenoid valve available. Contact the Valcor Nuclear department for more information and specifications about V70900-98 solenoid valve series
