Motorized valves are used in solar water heating systems. Solar water heaters use solar energy to heat water for domestic, commercial and industrial needs. Water heating is a common application of solar energy.

Cold water is circulated into the tank, and the heated water is stored for use.

Motorized Valves for High Temperature: CPVC Ball Valves

CPVC ball valves can be used in high-temperature hot-water applications, including solar water heating. The operating-temperature range described for this application is 90°C to 95°C.

Motorized Valves with Feedback Output

Optional feedback is available to indicate whether the valve is open or closed. The feedback output can also be used for further automation in the project.

See Motorized Valves with Digital and Analog Feedback Outputs for more about valve-position feedback.
