Overview
The Magnatrol 117S25 is a full-port, normally closed solenoid valve engineered for precise control of steam in industrial systems. Rated for 120V 60Hz operation with a maximum differential pressure of 50 PSI, this valve features 1-1/4″ NPT connections and robust bronze construction. The valve opens when energized and closes when de-energized, making it ideal for applications requiring reliable on-off control of steam flow.
Key Features
- Normally closed (NC) design—opens when energized, closes when de-energized
- Full-port bronze body with globe pattern for maximum flow capacity
- 1-1/4″ NPT threaded end connections
- 50 PSI maximum differential pressure rating
- Stainless steel plunger and pilot valve for durability and corrosion resistance
- 1/2″ NPS conduit connection on coil enclosure
- Horizontal mount orientation with vertical solenoid enclosure
