Direct Acting, Normally-Closed PTFE Bellows Seal Solenoid Valves  Series EASMT/EASYMT
TRUE BLUE® SOLENOID VALVES SERIES EASMT & EASYMT FOR PRESSURE, DRAIN, AND VACUUM SERVICE; DESIGNED FOR ALL TYPES OF AGGRESSIVE CHEMICALS, SALT SOLUTIONS, ACIDS, CAUSTICS, AND ULTRAPURE LIQUIDS SUCH AS DEIONIZED WATER.

 Features:

  • Sizes: 1/4″, 1/2″, 3/4″ & 1″
  • Body Materials: Geon PVC, Corzan CPVC, Natural Polypro, Kynar PVDF
  • Seal Materials: FKM, EPDM
  • 1,000,000+ cycles tested under laboratory conditions; some applications report over 2,000,000 cycles in field use. Your results may vary.
  • No metal parts in wetted area — Optional Xylan coated springs and fasteners available; consult factory.
  • Rugged molded construction.
  • Patented Fail-Dry® vented design.
  • Resistant to atmospheric corrosion.
  • PTFE bellows design eliminates the problems often encountered with highly aggressive chemicals, also eliminates the need to have multiple types of valves on hand.
  • Molded corrosion-resistant coil assembly.
  • W24 Coil with “COOL” DIN Connector is now standard; uses 75% less energy than previous design. R24 Coil is optional and ideal for applications that are energized less frequently. Both coils are rated for continuous duty.
  • IP-65 rated enclosure; CE Marked.
  • All valves are individually inspected and 100% tested.
  • Standard coil connector light indicates when valve is energized.
  • Supersedes Series EASM, EASYM, EASMD & EASYMD.

 

Mode of Operation: Normally closed (energize to open). No pressure differential required.

Service: Pressure, drain, and vacuum. (must specify with order). Please note that the 1″ EASMT is only rated to 15″ of mercury (partial vacuum). All others rated to full vacuum.

Handling of Dry Chlorine & Use of Thermoplastic Valves: When ordering a valve for chlorine service, please specify “Chlorine-Vacuum” on the order.

Plast-O-Matic Valves are not recommended for use with pressurized dry chlorine gas.

Valve must be installed in upright, vertical orientation for maximum cycle life. Valves installed horizontally will usually function properly (this should be determined by testing in your application), but at the expense of valve longevity. Valves with 58 watt coils (discontinued) MUST be mounted in an upright, vertical orientation.

Application: Series EASMT and EASYMT automatically shut off flow of highly corrosive and ultra-pure liquids. They can handle acids, caustics, solvents, chlorine solutions, sodium solutions, deionized water, reverse osmosis water, brewery processes, etc. and do not require pressure to aid in opening the valve.

Design: close up of the PTFE bellows used in Series EASMT & EASYMT

Valves are spring return normally closed and direct acting with a heavy duty push-pull plunger design. There is no minimum pressure required for operation. The PTFE bellows shaft seal eliminates the need for an elastomer seal which can weaken as a result of chemical attack. Provides low friction sealing, non-sticking operation, and million cycle design. The bellows design also allows a stock valve to be used for vacuum or pressure. A poppet seat ensures bubble-tight shutoff.

Available in 1/2″, 3/4″, and 1″ sizes (EASMT) or 1/4″ and 1/2″ (EASYMT). The EASMT has a larger orifice, which permits higher flow with a slight reduction in pressure rating. The EASYMT has a slightly smaller orifice (.375″) and offers higher pressures at the expense of flow. Even so, the 1/4″ EASYMT has a Cv rating of 1.2, which is still outstanding.

After 1,000,000 cycles, we recommend that the valve be disassembled and inspected. It is also recommended to replace the elastomer seals and bellows at this point. Contact your distributor for a seal kit. For heavy use applications, you may wish to order a spare seal kit with the valve. Seal replacement takes but a few minutes with common tools; no special training is required.

Standard coil for PTFE bellows solenoid valves is the new IP65 W24 (24 watt) coil. This molded unit is equipped with a rectified, lighted, Z-COOL DIN connector with wire leads. The coil is designed to draw energy for opening, then remain open with reduced energy. On average this will reduce energy costs by 75%. It is continuous duty and remains at ambient temperature when continuously energized. W24 is a superior coil for applications that are constantly energized.

Optional coil for PTFE bellows solenoid valves is the new R24 (24 watt) coil. This molded unit is equipped with a rectified 1/2″ DIN connection in place of wire leads. Coil assembly is IP65 rated. The R24 solenoid coil does not included the advantages of the Z-Cool Connector: It is continuous duty and operates with a surface temperature of approximately 220°F when continuously energized for an hour or longer. R24 coil does not include the running light found on the standard W24 coil. R24 provides a lower initial cost, but higher operating cost due to increased energy use. It is best suited for applications requiring periodic energization
