Trying to locate a source for an electric solenoid water valve. Planning to use it on the input side of a Kalk Reactor connected to my top-off controller.

coil = 24vdc, 110vac, or whatever
In/Out 1/4" Jaco or similar
Low pressure (RO/DI output)
Normally closed

Basically what is used for a refrigerator ice maker would probably work just fine, but there is probably a more reliable, non-corrosive choice?

Anybody have a WebSite for these?

I don't know about just a soleniod valve but I am using a spectrapure level controller just as I think you are planning with the valve on the input side of my kalk reactor. Works very well.

Thanks Richard, I am using a different topoff controller but have considered switching to that one - it would definately work!

Thought someone might have a source for a cheap valve?

www.autotopoff.com has one for $55. I'm going to order one from them if I can't find one any cheaper.
