The Carrier EF18LJ241 is an industrial-grade, electronically controlled water regulating valve designed for precise flow management in high-demand HVAC and humidifier systems. Operating on a 24VDC power supply with an 8-watt draw, this component is engineered to maintain consistent water pressure within a critical 3 to 125 PSI range. As the direct OEM updated version for EF18LJ242, it ensures seamless backward compatibility and improved reliability in chilled water and indoor air quality applications where signal-responsive regulation is required.

For technicians servicing Bryant, Carrier, or Payne units, the EF18LJ241 valve provides the necessary durability to withstand commercial environments. This solenoid water valve acts as a primary flow controller, reacting to automated DC signals to facilitate system efficiency. With a compact footprint of 3.4 x 4.7 x 1.7 inches, it integrates easily into existing manifolds. When replacing the legacy EF18LJ242 or P901-1003 models, verify polarity on the wiring diagram to ensure proper solenoid actuation and prevent flow variances.

Key Benefits:
  • OEM Compatibility: Specifically designed as the updated version for EF18LJ242, ensuring a drop-in fit for select Carrier and Bryant humidifiers.
  • Precision Regulation: Maintains stable performance across a wide 3 to 125 PSI range for accurate water metering.
  • Efficient Power Consumption: Optimized 24VDC operation at 8W provides reliable control without excessive electrical load.
  • Rugged Construction: Built to handle the continuous cycling demands of commercial HVAC water systems.
Common Questions:
  • Is the EF18LJ241 compatible with 24VAC systems? While some solenoids are dual-rated, this specific model is optimized for 24VDC applications; always check your controller's output and polarity before installation.
  • Can this replace the EF18LJ242? Yes, the EF18LJ241 is the official replacement part for the discontinued EF18LJ242 and P901-1003 numbers.
  • What pressure range does this valve support? This valve is rated for a 3 to 125# range, making it suitable for standard municipal and boosted water lines.
