Parker 7321KBY61640 Valve

The Parker 7321KBY61640 is a high-performance 1/4" NPT solenoid valve designed specifically for automated condensate management in mission-critical compressed air systems. Built as a 2-way normally closed timer drain valve, this unit features a rugged brass body and a pilot-operated internal pilot supply, ensuring reliable cycling even in high-demand industrial environments. Engineered to handle an operating pressure differential of 3 to 300 PSI, it utilizes a 120V AC coil (10W, Class F) to actuate drainage cycles reliably. The integration of a NEMA 4 enclosure provides superior protection against moisture and contaminants, making it a standard choice for HVAC condensate removal and air drying systems. By automating the evacuation of moisture, this Parker Skinner solenoid valve prevents liquid slugging and corrosion, maintaining the integrity of downstream pneumatic tools and refrigeration equipment. Technicians prefer this model for its 1.75 CV flow factor and its ability to withstand max fluid temperatures up to 122°F when paired with an electronic timer module.

• Precision Condensate Control: Automates moisture evacuation to protect air compressors and refrigerated dryer systems from water accumulation.
• Industrial Durability: Features a robust brass construction and NEMA 4 rated protection suitable for harsh mechanical room conditions.
• High Pressure Capability: Rated for 3-300 PSI solenoid valve applications, accommodating a wide range of industrial air line pressures.
• Optimal Flow Performance: The 7/16" orifice and 1.75 CV factor ensure rapid discharge of contaminants and heavy condensate loads.
• Versatile Compatibility: Designed for use with lubricated air, inert gases, and water, fitting seamlessly into existing 1/4 inch NPT pipe configurations.

What is the maximum pressure for the Parker 7321KBY61640?
This valve is rated for a maximum operating pressure of 300 PSI, requiring a minimum of 3 PSI to properly actuate the pilot-operated diaphragm.

Can this valve be used for steam applications?
No, this specific model is optimized for air, inert gas, and water up to 122°F. For steam services, a high-temperature rated Parker valve with specialized seal materials must be used.

Does this unit include the adjustable timer?
The 7321KBY61640 is the solenoid valve assembly often used in a condensate timer drain setup. Depending on the specific SKU configuration, the electronic timer module may be integrated or sold separately for controlling ON/OFF intervals.
