SOLENOID
The Solenoid responds to the signals sent
from the Controller. In the event of a power
outage, the Solenoid will close to avoid
overfilling the container.
To prolong the Solenoid life, it should be
placed after a sediment filter to prevent
becoming plugged with possible debris in
a water supply line.
Ideal operating pressure
is 80 PSI OR LESS.
Model# 270669
