About this item
- SAFE AND RELIABLE- Comprised of brass this valve is safe and strong; Lifespan of 80,000-100,000 cycles means a valve that will last
- NPT THREADING-3/4” Brass threading, manufactured and measured according to National Pipe Thread standards; This electrical ball valve is standard port, meaning the bore in the ball is a little less than 3/4”; This minimizes pressure loss through the valve; Perfect for home automation projects
- 9V-24V AC/DC- Works effectively over entire voltage range; Will open or close valve in 3-5 seconds; Limit switch minimizes power after valve is fully open; Ideal for projects where an automatic return is necessary
- 2 WIRE AUTOMATIC RETURN SETUP- Simple two wire connection, valve largely de-energizes after opening; Returns to fully closed if power is removed
- ALTERNATIVE TO SOLENOID VALVES- Automatically cuts off power once fully open or fully closed; This reduces likelihood of overheating, making it a great alternative to solenoid valves for projects where a valve needs to be open for an extended period of time
- Please Note: The solenoid valve may experience leaks as a result of impurities accumulated over multiple uses. This issue can be resolved by disassembling the valve and thoroughly cleaning it.
- If permanently installed outdoors, it is recommended to place it under a shelter or in a protective box to prevent prolonged exposure to rain.

Product Description
Motorized Ball Valve- 3/4" Brass Ball Valve with Standard Port, 9-24V AC/DC and 2 Wire Auto Return Setup by U.S. Solid
Motorized Ball Valve- 3/4" Brass Ball Valve with Standard Port, 9-24V AC/DC and 2 Wire Auto Return Setup by U.S. Solid
This valve comes in beautiful, sturdy brass. It is 3/4” in diameter, and is standard port. If you are using this for a system where pressure is important, or with mixed materials, where restrictions on flow can lead to separating of the material, a ball valve is your best option. Motorized ball valves are a great alternative to solenoid valves when the valve needs to remain in position for an extended period of time. Solenoid valves will get hot, as they are constantly energized. Motorized ball valves are an enticing, energy efficient alternative. The valves consume energy during the actual opening and closing process, and only negligible amounts once fully opened, meaning it can be permanently connected without risk of overheating or burning out. Auto return valves, in particular, are a perfect fit for those looking for emergency backup systems. When power is removed, the valve automatically closes, which can be great in times of trouble. These valves are not intended for situations where fast action closing or opening is needed, as they do take a few seconds to fully open and close.
Cherished by DIY Community, Approved by Engineers
This valve is perfect for the at home DIY'er, but also sturdy enough for use in an industrial application. It has a long life of up to 100,000 cycles. All of the different parts of this ball valve have been carefully selected for their quality and effectiveness. This included many parts that have been vigorously tested and rated based on performance. The motor's housing is rated at IP65 is the ingress protection rating. The first digit stands for how well protected it is against solids. Six is the highest possible score, and shows that the casing is dust tight. The second digit represents how well protected it is against liquid. A rating of five means that it is protected against any liquids projected by a nozzle (up to 6.5mm), from any direction with out water getting into the enclosure. The operating time is 3-5 seconds. This range corresponds to the range of voltages; a higher voltage will lead to faster closing and opening time. The 2N m of torque refer to the stem. This is an oft overlooked aspect of motorized ball valves, and it represents a strong stem, that can withstand serious torque without causing your piece to fail. In addition to these specifications, the U.S. Solid Motorized Ball Valves have all been certified by numerous agencies, verifying that they are made of the highest quality, and truly built to last.
Precision Threading
This motorized ball valve is 3/4" NPT threading. This is the standard threading for piping in the United States. NPT is a tapered threading. This helps to seal the connections more firmly, though does require the use of pipe thread tape. It has been manufactured and meticulously tested to make sure the threading is perfectly to size. This should allow for relatively easy installation. When preparing for installation, carefully wrap the male end of the pipe you are attaching the valve to in pipe thread tape. Be sure to wrap firmly, as loose tape can make it difficult to adequately connect the pipes. Screw into the valve as tight as possible. The combination of the tape, and the tapered male and female threads, will keep the connection leak free for the life of your valve.
Wiring your new Motorized Ball Valve
This U.S. Solid motorized ball valve comes with two wires. It is most easily used by wiring directly to a power source or simple on off switch. Because this is an auto-return valve, simply shutting off the power will close the valve. Like most U.S. Solid products, the motorized ball valves come with an guide for getting started. You will not have to agonize over finding appropriate wiring diagrams, because it will all be laid out for you in a covenient information sheet.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I opens quickly when actuated from a standard sprinkler controller, and closes reliably when the sprinkler controller removes power. It has standard 1/2" pipe threads and installs easily.
It's worth noting that this valve does not have a way to manually activate it, but I can use the manual mode of the sprinkler controller for that.
It's only been installed a few weeks, but so far it's running perfectly.

Relays get hot, *these don't*, As they only draw current as they are moving, once open they stay that way as long as voltage is applied then when you turn off power they auto close on their own.
One of these is for my 0ppm freshwater reservoir from the RODI system, another one I use from the reservoir to the saltwater mixing 50gal barrel.
With floats tied into my controller my Reef water maintenance is all automated now.
You can hear them when they activate quite clearly, which is good from a troubleshooting point of view but may be an issue if you use them in a quiet environment.
