Normally open. It is a 2-way, 2-position normally open solenoid valve in the Vickers SV13-10-O/OP/OS series.

runs to 60 gpm on our bigger rigs but this one's slotted for a smaller circuit, what kind of flow should I actually expect out of it?
Question by: Harvey A on Jun 19, 2025, 6:50 PM
Rated flow on this valve comes in at 45 litres per minute, so plan your circuit sizing around that figure. The 60 gpm and 350 bar numbers you may have seen reflect the broader SV13 series ceiling, not the output of this specific unit. For a smaller circuit that's a reasonable match, just make sure your line sizing and pump output align with that 45 L/min rating before finalizing the install.
