Normally-Open Solenoid ValvesTrue Blue® Solenoid Valves Series EASY-N.O. with quad seal design for pressure, drain, and vacuum service. Series EASY-NO (NORMALLY OPEN): For applications requiring a valve to remain open when de-energized, or when it would be dangerous for a valve to close during a power failure. (e.g. cooling towers, emergency systems, etc.) Million-cycle, bubble-tight shutoff, with no metal parts in wetted area. Design features a non-sticking PTFE shaft with a 4 u-cup seal, plus upper seal with Fail Dry safety vent. Suitable for most solutions, although proper caution should be taken when specifying for liquids prone to crystallization because of the u-cup design. The EASY-N.O. may also be appropriate if you require a valve to remain open for a long period of time (open much more than closed). This will result in less wear, and can result in substantial energy savings. - PTFE shaft for low-friction operation.
- Multi-use design: Pressure, drain, or vacuum service.
- 1,000,000+ cycle life.
- IP65 24 Watt Coil with lighted "Cool DIN" connector is standard.
- 1/4" & 1/2" NPT sizes, with 1/4" orifice.
- Fail safe "open"; this valve automatically de-energizes to an open position in the event of a power loss.
- Available in Geon PVC. Elastomer seals in Viton or EPDM. Alternate materials available w/quantity orders.
- No metal parts in wetted area.
- Patented Fail-Dry vented design.
- Resistant to atmospheric corrosion.
- Quadruple U-Cup design eliminates the problems often encountered with highly aggressive chemicals.
- Molded corrosion-resistant coil assembly.
- Every single valve is individually hand inspected and 100% tested prior to shipment -- so you can install with confidence.
- Note that the U-Cup design is not suited for some applications with crystallizing solutions (salts, caustics, etc.).

Mode of Operation:Normally OPEN (energize to close). No pressure differential required. Service:Pressure, drain, and vacuum. (must specify with order). May not be suitable for applications prone to crystallization. Application: Series EASY-N.O. allows continuous flow of highly corrosive and ultra-pure liquids. They can handle acids, solvents, process water, deionized water, etc. and do not require pressure to aid in opening the valve. Design:Valves are spring return normally open and direct acting with a heavy duty push-pull plunger design. There is no minimum pressure required for operation. Multiple U-cups are mounted around a PTFE shaft for low friction sealing, non-sticking operation, and million cycle design. The quad U-cup design also allows a stock valve to be used for vacuum or pressure. A poppet seat ensures bubble-tight shutoff. External fasteners are stainless steel (no metals in wetted area). Available in 1/4" and 1/2", the EASY-N.O. has a Cv rating of 1.1, which provides excellent capacity within these pipe sizes. After 1,000,000 cycles, we recommend that the valve be disassembled and inspected. It is also recommended to replace the elastomer seals and u-cups 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. Pressure considerations:Inlet pressure to 70 psi (4,8 bar) at room temperature (75 F). Backpressure rated to 18 psi (1,2 bar). Excessive backpressure will cause this model to remain open when the coil is energized. Coil Info:A 24 watt continuous duty coil is standard. When the coil is energized, the valve closes and will remain closed until the coil is de-energized. Coils are available in general purpose or explosion-proof, water tight construction. AC voltages are 24, 120, 240. 24 Volt DC available; please call our Tech Group at 973-256-3000. Dimensions & Specifications:
**Model numbers shown with "W24" IP65 coils. NOTES: Maximum inlet pressure ratings are at full line voltages of 24, 120, 240, etc. For a 10% voltage reduction these inlet pressure ratings will be approximately 30% lower. Other materials are available; consult factory - (973) 256-3000

Overview of the Entire Solenoid Valve Line, which may be the page you were on prior to this one. Provides key items for quick comparison and selection.
Series EASM & EASYM, 2-way molded solenoid valves that use a triple u-cup seal. These diaphragm valves are well suited to vacuum, pressure and drain applications. But for salt solutions, caustics, etc., use either of the next two valves. Range of sizes is 1/2", 3/4" & 1".
Series EASMD & EASYMD, 2-way molded solenoid valves that use a rolling diaphragm. These diaphragm valves are well suited to salt solutions, caustics, and other crystallizing liquids, but they are not designed for vacuum applications. Range of sizes is 1/2", 3/4" & 1".
Series EASMT & EASYMT 2-way Molded solenoid valves that use a dynamic PTFE bellows seal in lieu of u-cups or rolling diaphragms. The PTFE bellows line replaces all the different seal configurations, is suitable for all types of solutions, and all types of service. Range of sizes is 1/2", 3/4" & 1".
Series EAST, Compact valve with outstanding performance. Uses PTFE bellows dynamic seal, 1/4" & 1/2" sizes.
Series PS, Pilot-operated valve with outstanding pressure and flow performance. Uses PTFE bellows dynamic seal. Complete sizes 1/2" through 3", requires 5 psi differential for proper operation.
Series THP, Compact 3-way (aka diverter) solenoid valve.
Series WCM, Compact, direct-acting 2-way valve with stainless steel & silver wetted core. (this is the only Plast-O-Matic solenoid valve with a wetted metal core). Offers an outstanding combination of price and performance.
