WATERCOP

WaterCop is a product line of electrically actuated ball valves designed for automated shutoff of water and other compatible media in piping systems. The valves are manufactured with brass bodies and nickel-plated brass stems, and they are available in a range of nominal sizes from 1/2 inch through 1-1/4 inch, with additional sizes offered across the full catalog. Each valve features FNPT x FNPT straight connections, which allow direct threading onto standard pipe ends without the need for additional adapters. The actuation is provided by an electric motor that opens or closes the valve in response to a control signal, enabling remote or automatic operation. Power options include 120V AC and 12V DC, making the line suitable for both line-powered and low-voltage control systems. A key mechanical feature is the ISO 5211 actuator mounting pad, which provides a standardized interface for mounting actuators or for field replacement of the actuator without modifying the valve body. This standardization simplifies maintenance and allows the same valve body to be used with different actuator types if required. The valves are intended for on/off service, not for throttling or modulating control, and they are typically used in applications where a full open or full closed position is needed. Typical media include water, but the brass construction and nickel-plated stem also allow use with other non-corrosive liquids and gases, depending on the specific pressure and temperature ratings of the selected model. The two-way straight pattern provides a linear flow path with minimal pressure drop when the valve is fully open. WaterCop valves are often integrated into leak detection and automatic shutoff systems, where a sensor or controller sends a signal to close the valve when a leak is detected. They can also be used in process control, HVAC, irrigation, and other systems that require automated isolation. 3G Electric supplies the WaterCop line with a focus on technical documentation and logistics support. Each SKU is backed by datasheets that include flow coefficients, pressure ratings, electrical specifications, and dimensional drawings. 3G Electric maintains inventory across multiple sizes and power options, and can provide quotations for specific configurations. The company ships globally and supports procurement teams with order tracking and documentation for customs and compliance. For plant engineers and maintenance managers, 3G Electric can assist with cross-referencing existing valves to WaterCop models and with selecting the appropriate size and power supply for the application. The product line is positioned as a practical solution for automated shutoff where a robust, repairable valve with standard mounting interfaces is required.

Common Applications

  • Commercial buildings — WaterCop EHW23AJP01 (1/2 in, 120V AC) for automatic shutoff in leak detection systems.
  • Industrial process — WaterCop EHW25AJP01 (1 in, 120V AC) for on/off isolation of water lines in process equipment.
  • HVAC systems — WaterCop EHW24AJP01 (3/4 in, 120V AC) for condensate or chilled water isolation.
  • Irrigation control — WaterCop EHW25AJP01D (1 in, 12V DC) for low-voltage automated zone shutoff.
  • Water treatment — WaterCop EHW26AJP01 (1-1/4 in, 120V AC) for isolation of treatment lines.
  • Remote or battery-powered sites — WaterCop 12V DC models for automated shutoff where line power is unavailable.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about WATERCOP from 3G Electric.

What sizes and power options are available for WaterCop electrically actuated ball valves?

WaterCop electrically actuated ball valves are available in nominal sizes from 1/2 inch to 1-1/4 inch, with additional sizes offered in the full catalog. Power options include 120V AC and 12V DC. For example, the 1/2 inch model EHW23AJP01 operates on 120V AC, while the 1 inch model EHW25AJP01D operates on 12V DC. All models feature FNPT x FNPT straight connections and a nickel-plated brass stem. The ISO 5211 actuator mounting pad is standard across the line. 3G Electric can provide datasheets for each SKU to confirm exact dimensions and electrical characteristics.

What is the purpose of the ISO 5211 mounting pad on WaterCop valves?

The ISO 5211 mounting pad provides a standardized interface for attaching an actuator to the valve body. This allows the actuator to be removed or replaced without disturbing the valve body or the piping connection. It also enables the use of different actuator types or brands that comply with the ISO 5211 standard, giving maintenance teams flexibility in sourcing replacements. The pad is machined to specific dimensions that match the actuator mounting flange, ensuring proper alignment and torque transmission. WaterCop valves include this pad as a standard feature, which simplifies field service and reduces downtime.

Can WaterCop valves be used for modulating or throttling control?

No, WaterCop electrically actuated ball valves are designed for on/off service only. They are not intended for modulating or throttling control. The actuator moves the ball to either the fully open or fully closed position. Using the valve in a partially open position can cause excessive wear on the ball and seats, and may lead to inaccurate flow control. For applications requiring modulating control, a different valve type with a characterized ball or a globe valve should be selected. WaterCop valves are best suited for isolation or shutoff duties where a full open or full closed state is required.

What media are WaterCop brass ball valves compatible with?

WaterCop brass ball valves with nickel-plated brass stems are typically used with water and other non-corrosive liquids and gases. The brass body and nickel-plated stem provide resistance to corrosion in many common industrial and commercial environments. However, compatibility depends on the specific fluid, concentration, and temperature. For aggressive or corrosive media, alternative materials may be required. Always consult the datasheet for the specific model to confirm pressure and temperature limits, and verify chemical compatibility with the wetted materials. 3G Electric can provide the relevant datasheets for review.

How does 3G Electric support procurement of WaterCop valves?

3G Electric supplies WaterCop valves with a focus on technical documentation and logistics. Each SKU is accompanied by datasheets that include flow coefficients, pressure ratings, electrical specifications, and dimensional drawings. 3G Electric maintains inventory across multiple sizes and power options and can provide quotations for specific configurations. The company ships globally and supports procurement teams with order tracking and documentation for customs and compliance. For plant engineers and maintenance managers, 3G Electric can assist with cross-referencing existing valves to WaterCop models and with selecting the appropriate size and power supply for the application.

What is the difference between the 120V AC and 12V DC WaterCop valve models?

The primary difference is the power supply required for the actuator. Models ending in AJP01, such as EHW23AJP01, EHW24AJP01, EHW25AJP01, and EHW26AJP01, operate on 120V AC. Models ending in AJP01D, such as EHW25AJP01D, operate on 12V DC. The valve body, connections, and stem material are the same across both power options. The choice depends on the available power source and control system. 120V AC is common in line-powered installations, while 12V DC is often used in low-voltage or battery-backed systems. Both options provide the same on/off functionality and ISO 5211 mounting interface.
