The 2-Way Compact Solenoid Valve (CSV) was designed with size and battery life in mind. The CSV uses stamped metal internal components to keep the cost down and improve reliability. The valve was tested beyond 20,000,000 cycles. It can be mounted directly to a Printed Circuit Board (PCB) or have an integral connector for lead wires. The design can be modified extensively to include a number of alternate mounting and interface options (face mount, barb ports, manifold mount).
