Cla-Val 136-01 / 636-01 Electromagnetic On-Off Valve

The Cla-Val 136-01 / 636-01 is a hydraulically actuated water control valve, utilizing a Hytrol main valve and a three-way solenoid pilot. Operation is on-off: the valve opens or closes in response to an electrical signal at the solenoid pilot.

Operating Principle

The three-way solenoid assembly alternates pressure in the diaphragm chamber of the main valve. Depending on the control configuration, the valve is available as:

  • Normally open: de-energized solenoid opens valve
  • Normally closed: energized solenoid opens valve

Selection of fail position should align with the facility’s safety logic and process requirements.

Technical Specifications

  • Connection: flanged
  • Standard: ANSI
  • Pressure classes: 150 lbs / 300 lbs
  • Body materials: brass, ASTM A216 WCB, ductile iron
  • Primary function: electric open/close
  • Media: process water or potable water

Typical Applications

  • Batching and tank filling
  • Mixing, washing, and blending in industrial lines
  • Remote on-off control via PLC or SCADA
  • Level control with float switch or electrodes
  • Agricultural and municipal water networks with electric actuation

Selection Considerations

Correct sizing requires DN, flow rate, min/max pressure, available solenoid voltage, desired fail position, and material compatibility with the process fluid.

FAQ

Is this a flow regulating valve?
No. This is an on-off valve. For proportional flow control, a different control arrangement is required.

Where is the 636-01 used?
The 636 series refers to larger or special Cla-Val configurations, using the same solenoid control logic as the 136-01.

Description

Cla-Val Models 136-01 and 636-01 Solenoid Control Valves are on-off control valves that either open or close upon receiving an electrical signal to the solenoid pilot control. These valves consist of a Hytrol main valve and a three-way solenoid valve that alternately applies pressure to or relieves pressure from the diaphragm chamber of the main valve. It is furnished either normally open (de-energized solenoid to open) or normally closed (energized solenoid to open).

Industrial uses for the solenoid control valve are many and include accurate control of process water for batching, mixing, washing, blending or other on-off type uses.

The liquid level control can be provided by using a float switch or electrode probe which sends an electrical signal to open or close the valve as needed.
