Motorized Ball Valve Specifications

Motorized valves, commonly called "actuated valves", are used in applications requiring
automated valve control. Unlike manual valves which involve manually turning a handle or gearbox,
motorized valves open or close the valves automatically by energizing an electric motor after receiving a
control signal. The combination of a valve mounted to an electric actuator is called an "electrically
actuated valve."
The researchers used CWX – 25S motorized ball valve which operates from 3V up to 6V. The
ball valve used was a CR01 type of the CWX – 25S which specifically a two wire ball valve. The
maximum power of the valve is 2W which also has a current of 100 ma that would drive the ball.

The figure above shows how the motorized ball valve works. If SW (Switch) is connected to
OPEN, the ball valve’s hole is open, rotating the ball 90 degrees, and in line with the flow. Getting in the
position automatically turns the power off, but the valve remain fully open in position. The SW
automatically connects in OPEN if the tea level is high; whereas the sensor triggers the switch. And the
ball valve will drain the tea until it reaches the low level sensor.
Draining the tea until it reaches the low level sensor triggers the switch which would reverse the
polarity of the circuit. SW will automatically connect to CLOSE and the ball will also rotate 90 degrees
back into its close position.
