Vacuum Service Low Wattage Operators,Valves and Manifolds
KIP valves and manifolds are ideal for vacuum service and forthose special 3-way valve applications that require vacuum on one
port and pressure on another port.Valve construction is compatible
with
vacuum systems as high as 10- KIP offers the option of low wattage coils, aslow as 1.5 watts, on many of our standard
valves.These coils offer high pressure (MOPD)
operation at low current levels.?Available in both 2-Way and 3-Way models inSeries 1, Series 2, and Series 3.?Orifice sizes from 1/32" to 5/32".
?Available in 12VDC and 24VDC.
?Refer to KIP
solenoid valve charts forwattage, pressure ratings and Cv factors.KIP Series 1, 2 and 3 offer selective modelswith wattage ratings from 1.5 watts to 3 watts.
After reviewing the pressure rating (MOPD) of
your particular valve in the part number section,
you may add an (A) - 1.5 watts, (B) - 2.0 watts,
(C) - 2.5 watts, or a (D) - 3.0 watts as a prefix to
the part number.It is important to note that
there is a reduced pressure rating from the
standard when a reduced wattage coil is used.For the OEM, KIP can design and manufacturea custom coil to meet your specific flow and
pressure requirements at close to standard
pricing.When 1.5 watts is not low enough, you canselect a valve from the KIP Jr.product line
which goes as low as .65 watts while
industrial still
maintaining significant flow and pressure
specifications.

SERVICE”.
Oxygen Service
KIP valves can be processed for oxygen service;for use in the
medical industry, spectro-analysis or other applications requiring
O
2 .These valves are specially cleaned and packaged to becontamination-free.All hydrocarbons are removed.When ordering
use the prefix “Y”in the PIN system.See page 9.
Extended Flow Capabilities
KIP can increase the flow (Cv) capability of any of its valves by
modifying the mechanical and electrical components of the valve.
In many cases the pressure ratings (MOPD) of the valve must be
reduced to achieve the higher flow rate (Cv).When your flow
requirements exceed the catalog ratings, consult KIP for
application engineering assistance.
Extended Pressure Ratings
Solenoid valves can be modified to increase pressure ratings
(MOPD) above the standard ratings listed in the catalog.If agency
approvals are necessary, consultation with UL and/or CSA is
required.Consult KIP with all your design parameters to determine
the feasibility of extending the pressure ratings.
Quiet Valves
Solenoid valves have a distinct click that is inherent to their design
when the two metal parts make contact.KIP offers a bumper or
special plunger design for OEM’s that will provide a metal to
elastomer contact, thus muffling the sound.In addition to providing
quiet operation, this feature also extends the life of the moving
parts.Quiet valves are available on 2-way and 3-way valves, DC
voltage only.Contact KIP for additional information on our quiet
valve option.
Agency Approvals
KIP products conform to agency approvals such as UL, cURus,
CSA and NSF International.The approvals are restricted to certain
products and specific applications.When any agency endorsement
is dictated for an operation, refer to the application inquiry sheets
for each product specified.The sheets are located in the back of
the catalog.If additional information is needed, please contact KIP. 6
