GC Valves K13CF1232 Valve

The GC Valves K13CF1232 is a high-performance 3-way universal solenoid valve designed for demanding fuel oil and industrial fluid applications. Built with a compact brass body and robust stainless steel internal components, this 3/8" NPT solenoid valve provides reliable flow control for water, light oils, and heated fuel oil. Operating on a standard 120V AC 60Hz electrical supply, the unit features a Class F coil housed in a durable junction box, making it ideal for standard commercial and industrial environments. This direct-acting valve handles an operating pressure range from 0 to 125 PSI without requiring a minimum pressure differential, ensuring consistent performance in low-pressure recirculating systems. The 1/8" orifice provides a precise 0.22 Cv flow factor, offering stable regulation for technical HVACR configurations. For veteran contractors, the K13CF1232 represents a versatile solution for diverting or mixing applications where thermal stability and corrosion resistance are non-negotiable.

• Universal Flow Control: Functions as normally closed, normally open, or as a diverting valve to suit various piping layouts.
• Direct-Acting Operation: Operates efficiently from 0 PSI differential pressure, eliminating the need for pilot assistance.
• High-Durability Build: Features stainless steel orifices and seals for superior Wear resistance in fuel oil recirculating systems.
• Broad Media Compatibility: Suitable for water, light oil, and specialized fuel applications up to 125°F ambient temperature.
• Reliable 120V Solenoid: Integrated Class F molded coil designed for continuous duty and high electrical stability.

Can this valve be mounted in any orientation?
For optimal performance and to ensure the longevity of the plunger assembly, it is strictly recommended to mount the valve in a vertical position.

Does this valve require a minimum pressure to open?
No, this is a direct-acting solenoid, meaning it will function reliably throughout the entire 0 to 125# pressure range without requiring a pressure drop.

What should I do if I hear a buzzing noise from the coil?
Buzzing or chattering usually indicates low voltage or foreign debris trapped between the plunger and the tube head. Inspect for particulates and verify the 120V power supply.
