GC Valve S401GF02V9BF5 Valve

The GC Valve S401GF02V9BF5 is a high-performance 2-way normally closed solenoid valve engineered for precision fluid control in demanding HVACR and industrial applications. Built with a rugged brass body and a 3/8" orifice, this valve ensures reliable flow regulation with a 1/4" NPT connection size. The integration of Viton seal material (FKM) provides superior chemical resistance and thermal stability, making it ideal for media that may degrade standard elastomers. Operating on 120Vac, the Class F coil is rated for continuous duty, providing the thermal endurance required in high-cycle environments or confined mechanical rooms. This S401 series valve is frequently utilized in water treatment, air processing, and vacuum services where a pilot-operated diaphragm design is necessary to maintain consistent pressure differentials. Its robust construction minimizes downtime and simplifies field maintenance for technicians requiring repeatable normally closed valve performance.

• High-Temperature Durability: The Viton seals and Class F coil insulation allow for operation in elevated ambient and media temperatures without seal failure or coil burnout.
• Optimized Flow Rate: A 3/8" orifice provides a high Cv value relative to the 1/4" pipe size, reducing pressure drop across the seat.
• Pilot-Operated Efficiency: Designed for systems with minimum pressure differentials, ensuring positive shut-off and reliable opening under load.
• Standardized Integration: The 1/4" NPT ports and 120V AC solenoid configuration allow for seamless drop-in replacement in existing control loops.

What is the maximum pressure rating for this valve?
The GC Valve S401 series typically handles operating pressure differentials up to 150 PSI depending on the specific media, though always verify your system's peak surge pressure against the pilot's lift capacity.

Can this valve be mounted in any orientation?
For optimal longevity and to prevent sediment buildup in the pilot orifice, it is recommended to install the valve with the solenoid coil in the upright vertical position.

How do I confirm compatibility with my media?
The Viton (FKM) seals are compatible with oils, many chemicals, and temperatures exceeding standard BUNA-N limits. Check the specific concentration and temperature of your fluid against FKM chemical resistance charts.
