Raritan Continuous Duty Solenoid

The Raritan Continuous Duty Solenoid (CDS12) is a replacement component engineered for marine toilet systems aboard pleasure vessels. After years on the water, any boater knows that reliable waste management infrastructure is non-negotiable—it's the backbone of sanitation and environmental compliance on deck. This solenoid handles the critical valve actuation that controls water flow and waste discharge in Raritan marine head systems, making it an essential spare part for cruisers, fishing boats, and liveaboard vessels.

Raritan's Continuous Duty Solenoid operates as an electrically controlled valve actuator, engineered to cycle repeatedly without thermal fatigue or failure during extended use—critical when offshore systems run 24/7. The compact design measures 4 x 3 x 7 inches and weighs just 0.9 pounds, allowing it to fit into tight engine room and head compartments typical of modern marine layouts. Built with marine-grade durability in mind, this solenoid resists corrosion from saltwater spray and humidity, ensuring consistent performance across freshwater and coastal voyages alike.

Boat owners and service technicians favor the Raritan Continuous Duty Solenoid when upgrading or repairing existing marine head systems, particularly those facing slow actuation or valve stiction. Installation is straightforward on compatible Raritan toilet models, with electrical connections standardized across the brand's product line. Whether you're maintaining a 30-foot cruiser or restoring vintage marine sanitation equipment, this solenoid delivers reliable, quiet operation that keeps your waste management system functioning dependably mile after mile.
