The AqMatic V42E-00SX-70239 is a 1-1/2 inch cast iron diaphragm valve with a special configuration and independent pressure (IP) solenoid, designed for systems that require controlled pilot actuation and non-standard internal setup.
This model is part of the V42 series, a metal-body diaphragm valve platform used in water treatment, filtration, and industrial flow control systems. The valve uses a Y-pattern body with a large seat opening and high-lift diaphragm, supporting higher flow rates with lower pressure loss in 1-1/2 inch systems.
The 00SX designation indicates a special-order configuration, including drilled and tapped bosses and modified internal components. This allows the valve to integrate into systems with specific control requirements, custom piping layouts, or legacy equipment.
This configuration uses an independent pressure (IP) solenoid, meaning valve actuation is driven by an external pressure source rather than relying solely on line pressure. This is commonly used in systems where pressure conditions vary or where more precise control of valve movement is required.
The valve is built with a Buna diaphragm, Buna seals, and Hycar discs, supporting compatibility in water treatment and select chemical environments where mixed elastomer performance is needed.
It is typically deployed in automated systems using stagers and stager controls, or alongside other V42 diaphragm valves in multi-valve assemblies.
