Don’t be afraid to get wet: Weatherized Coil Assemblies

Any electro-hydraulic coil-driven equipment exposed to harsh environments will benefit from this weatherized coil assembly. These assemblies protect electrically actuated, full-flow switching and electro-proportional cartridges,  extending  the  coil’s  physical life  and maintaining  system  reliability.

Special  Sun coils  use the Metri-Pack 150 connector in conjunction with this simple-to-fit protective cover seal kit to survive more than 1000 hours in salt fog test, making this an ideal addition to any application subjected to full high-pressure wash-down or  marine environments.

These  weatherized coils include a built- in TVS surge  suppression diode and are available  in 12, 14, 24, 28  and 36 Vdc.  See our full  line  of  weatherized coils and  our  weatherized seal kits.

The coil connector is rated to IP69K, making this the best choice for externally mounted coil protection and providing confidence in extended temperature operationunder the most extreme  conditions.

These weatherized coils require a spotface on the sealing surface and  therefore  are  best  suited  for  new  designs. Sun can provide integrated packages with appropriate cavities and spotface to accommodate the   weatherized   coils. And we offer several standard  90-degree  manifolds  with the spotface.

About IP69K

The IP69K code is an Ingress Protection Rating for high-pressure, high-temperature wash-down applications. The enclosures are not only dust tight, but must withstand high pressure and steam cleaning.

In addition to withstanding the IP69K testing requirements, Sun’s weatherized cartridge assemblies have passed a 1000-hour salt fog test, ensuring corrosion resistance for marine applications.
