Series WCM

DISCONTINUED -- FOR REFERENCE ONLY

Tough, Rugged 1/2" Engineered Thermoplastic Solenoid Valve
for Water and Mild Solutions
2,000,000+ Cycle Life!


wetted core solenoid valve offers the ultimate design quality in its price range

Designed for applications requiring a compact, very cost effective and high pressure rated valve with extended cycle life. This valve is ideal if your process uses less aggressive liquids that are compatible with a wetted metal core. Among lower cost solenoid valves, Series WCM represents the best combination of price and performance available.

Note in the dimensional drawing above that process liquid is in contact with metal parts in Series WCM. All other Plast-O-Matic Solenoid Valves have a "shielded core," in which no metals are in contact with process liquid. Suitability of Series WCM for a particular application is determined by corrosion/purity parameters of the process liquid. In many cases a physical test of the valve under operating conditions is the only way to ensure the success of a particular valve for a specific application. The ultimate determination of suitability of any product or material is the sole responsibility of the user.
