GC Valves S301GH02N3BD7 Solenoid Valve

The GC Valves S301GH02N3BD7 Solenoid Valve is a 2-way direct acting control solution engineered for high-performance fluid management in demanding HVACR and industrial environments. This normally closed solenoid valve features a rugged 303 stainless steel body, ensuring superior corrosion resistance and compatibility with aggressive media, air, neutral gases, and light oils. With a 1/4" NPT pipe size and a 5/32" orifice, it delivers a 0.44 Cv flow coefficient, maintaining reliable operation even at zero pressure differential. The 120Vac coil is Class H rated for high-temperature resilience, outperforming standard Class F options in heat-intensive applications. For technicians sourcing replacements, the S301GH02N3BD7 is functionally identical to the S301GF02N3BD7, providing a seamless drop-in transition for existing systems. Designed for versatility, this valve is rated for pressures up to 150 psi and is housed in an encapsulated waterproof conduit (NEMA 4X) to protect electrical components from moisture and debris.

• Direct Acting Design: Operates at zero minimum pressure differential, making it ideal for vacuum and low-pressure gravity-fed systems.
• Class H High-Temperature Coil: Enhanced thermal protection allows for continuous duty in environments where standard coils might fail.
• Stainless Steel Construction: The 303 SS body provides a significant durability upgrade over brass for handling light chemicals and steam.
• Cross-Compatibility: Confirmed 100% identical to the GC Valves S301GF02N3BD7, simplifying inventory and field replacements.
• Versatile Mounting: Direct-acting S30 series architecture allows for installation in any position without impacting flow regulation.

What is the difference between S301GH02N3BD7 and S301GF02N3BD7?
These two part numbers are identical in form, fit, and function. The "H" in the GH variant typically denotes the high-temperature Class H coil, making it a robust replacement for the GF version.

Can this 120Vac solenoid valve be used for steam applications?
Yes, the stainless steel body and Class H insulation make the S301GH02N3BD7 suitable for low-pressure steam and hot water, provided the seal material (Nitrile) is compatible with your specific system temperatures.

Does this valve require a minimum pressure to open?
No, as a direct acting valve, the plunger is lifted by the solenoid coil regardless of line pressure, permitting flow even at 0 psi.
