TypeR24 (24 Watt) solenoid coils, rated IP65 (weather proof and
suitable for outdoors use) are designed to be used with Plast-O-
Matic solenoid valves. The solenoid consists of the coil, plunger
(AKA core), core tube housing and a few other parts. When
energized, the solenoid creates a magnetic field that causes the
core to move thus opening or closing the valve depending on the
design of the valve. You, the end user, must apply the correct
voltage for your particular valve/solenoid. This voltage (and part
number) is imprinted on the coil.
MPORTANT:
these coils
MUST
be operated with the connector
that was supplied by the factory, or the correct replacement
connector if required. If used with the wrong connector, the valve
will not operate. The coil, voltage and part numbers of the coil
and connector are provided below. All connectors are designed
for 1/2” NPT conduit connection. These connectors meet DIN
43650/ISO 4400 form A.
The reason the correct connector must be used is because the
connector performs a special function. It rectifies the voltage.
Rectified voltage has several advantages:
1. It is much quieter than AC voltage, which tends to hum and
occasionally buzz.
2. The coil can be on/off cycled without increasing the heating
like AC coils will.
3. In case the coil is energized without being mounted on the
valve, no harm is done.

INSTALLATION CAUTION:
Electrical wiring shall
be performed by qualified persons in accordance
with all national and local electrical codes. Three wire
(single phase, grounded) is required. A 1/2” NPT
threaded connection and all gaskets supplied must
be used to maintain IP65 weather tight rating.
