Frequently asked questions
Common questions about SPARTAN SCIENTIFIC from 3G Electric.
What voltage options are available for Spartan Scientific solenoid valves?
Spartan Scientific solenoid valves are available in several voltage options, including 12V DC, 24V DC, 24V AC, and 120V AC. The specific voltage depends on the model and application. For example, SKU 20HL61 operates on 12V DC, while SKU 20HL39 uses 24V AC. When selecting a valve, ensure the voltage matches your control system. 3G Electric provides detailed specifications for each SKU to help you choose the correct voltage.
What is the difference between poppet and remote pilot designs in Spartan Scientific valves?
Poppet design uses a plug that moves linearly to open or close the flow path, providing tight shutoff and suitability for low-flow applications. Remote pilot design uses a smaller pilot valve to control a larger main valve, allowing higher flow rates with lower power consumption. Spartan Scientific offers both designs; for instance, SKU 20HL61 is a poppet valve, while SKU 20HL89 is a remote pilot valve. The choice depends on flow requirements and pressure conditions.
Are Spartan Scientific solenoid valves suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, many Spartan Scientific solenoid valves feature dust-tight or water-resistant coil enclosures, making them suitable for outdoor and harsh environments. For example, SKU 20HL61 has a dust-tight enclosure, and SKU 20HL86 has a water-resistant enclosure. These enclosures protect the coil from dust, moisture, and other contaminants. However, always verify the specific IP rating and environmental conditions for your application.
What pipe sizes are available for Spartan Scientific two-way normally closed valves?
Spartan Scientific two-way normally closed valves are available in pipe sizes ranging from 1/8 inch to 3/4 inch. Common sizes include 1/8 in (e.g., SKU 20HL98), 1/4 in (e.g., SKU 20HL39), 3/8 in (e.g., SKU 20HL61), and 3/4 in (e.g., SKU 20HL89). The pipe size determines the flow capacity and connection type. Ensure the valve size matches your piping system for optimal performance.
Can Spartan Scientific solenoid valves be used with nylon bodies?
Yes, Spartan Scientific offers solenoid valves with nylon bodies, such as SKU 20HL98 and SKU 20HL97. Nylon bodies provide corrosion resistance and are lightweight, making them suitable for applications involving water and mild chemicals. However, nylon may not be suitable for high-pressure or high-temperature applications. Always check the pressure and temperature ratings for the specific model.
