Description

1/4 inch WRAS latching / bi-stable water solenoid valve – RPE 3105BB


A low-power, WRAS approved latching solenoid valve designed for potable water applications where energy efficiency is critical. The RPE 3105BB operates using short pulse signals to open and close, requiring no continuous power to maintain position.

Valve function and operation

Function: 2/2 way latching / bi-stable
Operation: Pressure assisted (minimum 0.2 bar pressure differential required)
Port size: 1/4 BSP female
Orifice size: 11.0 mm
Kv flow factor: 25.81 L/min (based on water with 1 bar pressure difference)
Control principle: Short power pulse to open, reverse polarity pulse to close
Maximum pulse duration: 20 milliseconds

Construction & materials

Body: Nylon white good grade 30% Glass Filled
Seals: NBR standard, option EPDM
Coil type: Latching / bi-stable
Power consumption: 2.25 W
Ingress protection: IP00
Electrical connection: Faston tags 6.3x0.8mm (option flying lead wires)

Voltage requirements

Nominal voltage: 6 V DC
Current draw: 375 mA
Pulse duration: 15 to 20 milliseconds
Voltage tolerance: Accepts 9 V DC and 12 V DC with reduced pulse duration

Operating principle

A short low-power pulse (approximately 15 ms) energises the internal magnet to open the valve and hold it open without continuous power.
A short reverse-polarity pulse (approximately 15 ms) cancels the magnetic field, closing the valve.
This process is repeated for each open and close cycle, significantly reducing overall power consumption.

Approvals and certifications

WRAS approved
KTW and DM174 drinking water compliance
ACS health compliance certificate
ENEC European electrical certification
CSV (European Union Aviation Safety Agency)
