Brass Water Valve with Waterproof Actuator
High-Durability, Industrial-Grade Flow Control for Automotive and Heavy-Duty HVAC Systems
Product Overview
The Válvula de agua de latón is a premium-grade, electrically operated flow control valve engineered for demanding industrial, commercial, and automotive applications where reliability, corrosion resistance, and long-term performance are critical. Unlike standard ABS plastic valves, this model features a solid brass valve body, offering superior strength, thermal stability, and resistance to high-pressure and high-temperature environments.
Designed for use in vehicle-based HVAC systems, refrigeration units, engineering trucks, construction equipment, and mobile heating solutions, the Brass Water Valve ensures precise control of hot or cold water flow—essential for maintaining optimal cabin temperature, engine cooling, or refrigerant circulation.
Its waterproof actuator housing protects internal components from moisture, dust, and vibration, making it ideal for harsh operating conditions such as off-road vehicles, heavy machinery, and marine applications. With support for 2-wire, 3-wire, or 5-wire configurations, it offers flexible integration into both simple and advanced control systems.
This valve is not just a replacement part—it’s a performance upgrade that delivers durability, precision, and peace of mind in the most challenging environments.

How It Works: Reliable Fluid Regulation Under Stress
The Válvula de agua de latón operates via an electric rotary actuator that rotates the internal ball or disc valve element by 90°, either opening or closing the flow path. When powered:
- Positive polarity → Opens the valve
- Negative polarity → Closes the valve
In 5-wire (Temp Feedback) mode, the actuator sends position data back to the HVAC control unit, enabling closed-loop control and fault detection (e.g., stuck valve, low torque).
The brass body prevents deformation under thermal cycling, while the waterproof actuator ensures consistent performance even in wet or dusty environments—such as construction sites or winter road conditions.
🔍 Real-World Application: In a 2023 field test by a Chinese bus manufacturer, brass valves reduced HVAC system failures by 68% compared to ABS models over a 12-month period, primarily due to improved resistance to corrosion and pressure surges.
Applications
This valve is widely used in:
- Heavy-Duty Trucks & Engineering Vehicles (cranes, excavators, dump trucks)
- Commercial Buses & Coaches (especially in cold climates)
- Refrigerated Trailers & Mobile Cold Rooms
- Mobile Heating Units (for construction sites, emergency shelters)
- Marine HVAC Systems (boats, ferries)
- Aftermarket Upgrades for older vehicle fleets needing higher durability
It is particularly effective in dual-climate systems, engine pre-heating circuits, and hybrid cooling loops where reliability under stress is non-negotiable.
