Since 1960 ODE has been one of the leaders in designing and manufacturing a complete line of solenoid valves. National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) certified lead-free brass-bodied water valves from ODE are an excellent choice for food and beverage grade potable water applications where products can be consumed by humans. Two types of these brass solenoid valves are available; direct acting, and pilot control solenoid valves. Both types of valves are 2-port, 2-position, normally closed.
Direct acting solenoid valves with G1/8 or G1/4 port sizes are certified NSF/ANSI 169 for use in vending and other potable water applications and where minimum operational pressure is not required. Maximum operating pressure is 580 psi.
Solenoid valves with pilot control are NSF/ANSI/CAN 61 certified for use with water and other compatible fluid applications. A minimum operational pressure of 0.2 bar (2.9 psi) is required. 3/8", 1/2", 3/4" and 1" NPT port sizes are available. Maximum pressures are 232 – 363 psi.
ODE brass potable water valves from AutomationDirect start at $38.00 and are NSF, CE, CSA, UL recognized and IP 65 EN 60529 (DIN 40050) protected. 12VDC, 24VDC, 24VAC, 120VAC and 240VAC replacement coils are available.

Cables and wires in industrial robots and other moving machine parts are often required to withstand extreme stresses caused by torsion. Constant repetitive movements put materials under considerable strain. At the same time, operators expect components to function perfectly and reliably throughout their entire service life to avoid disruptions, outages and safety hazards.
For this reason, at HELUKABEL, we simulate intensive and continuous torsion stresses under realistic conditions with our high-tech testing equipment in Windsbach. We have several types of apparatus for doing this because some of our customers, for example those in the automotive industry, have very precise specifications for how a torsion test is carried out. The tests show that our cables and wires withstand speeds up to 1,000°/s, accelerations up to 2,000°/s² and torsion angles up to 720°. Hence, we make sure that each product always meets our customers’ high standards, and that they receive the impeccable quality they rightly expect from us as a leading supplier of cables, wires and accessories for more than 40 years.
