The Baldor Motor 015844 is a heavy-duty, pilot-operated, 2-way normally closed solenoid valve engineered for general-service HVAC and industrial fluid control applications. Built with a robust brass body and NBR (Buna-N) seals, this valve delivers reliable shutoff performance across a wide range of media — including air, water, and light oil — making it a versatile solution for mechanical rooms, process piping, and commercial HVAC systems.
Key Features
- 2-way, normally closed (NC) configuration — valve closes automatically when de-energized for fail-safe operation
- Pilot-operated design for efficient, low-power actuation on larger pipe sizes
- 1-1/2″ NPT connections for straightforward installation into standard pipe systems
- 24VAC coil voltage — compatible with standard HVAC control circuits
- High flow capacity with a 22.5 Cv rating for minimal pressure drop
- Brass body construction for corrosion resistance and long service life
- NBR (Nitrile Butadiene Rubber) seals for compatibility with water, air, and light oil media
- NEMA 4X enclosure rating — suitable for indoor and outdoor installations, including washdown and corrosive environments
Pressure & Media Ratings
- Air and Water: 5–150 PSI operating pressure range
- Light Oil: 5–100 PSI operating pressure range
