Value Collection BD2237 Linear Solenoid 65A 12VDC

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BD2237 is a continuous-duty linear solenoid rated for 65 amps at 12 volts DC. Linear solenoids convert electrical energy into straight-line mechanical motion, making them a core component in fluid control, locking mechanisms, and actuator assemblies across HVAC, plumbing, and industrial equipment. The BD2237 meets Section 183.410 requirements and carries UL Listed 707B certification, confirming it has been evaluated for safe use in demanding electrical environments. Licensed electricians, HVAC technicians, and equipment maintenance professionals install this type of solenoid in applications where reliable, repeatable linear actuation is required under sustained electrical load.

The BD2237 is suited for installations where a 12 VDC continuous-duty solenoid is specified. Continuous-duty rating means the solenoid can remain energized indefinitely without a mandated off-cycle cooling period, which is critical in control systems that hold a valve or mechanism open or closed for extended run times. Typical applications include fluid valve actuation, door latch release mechanisms, and machine control assemblies in both residential and light commercial equipment.

Key Features

• Linear solenoid design provides direct, straight-line mechanical actuation
• 65-amp rating supports high-current control circuit demands
• 12 VDC operating voltage compatible with low-voltage control systems
• Continuous-duty cycle rated for sustained energized operation without mandatory rest periods
• Meets Section 183.410 standards and carries UL Listed 707B certification

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement or service solenoid for equipment specifying a 12 VDC continuous-duty linear solenoid with a 65-amp rating. Confirm voltage, amperage, stroke, and mounting requirements against the original equipment specification before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician or licensed technician familiar with low-voltage DC control circuits. De-energize and lock out the circuit before removing or installing the solenoid, following NFPA 70E electrical safety procedures. Verify that the supply circuit is rated to handle the 65-amp draw and that all connections are secure and properly insulated. Confirm solenoid orientation and stroke direction match the mechanical assembly before applying power.
