Raritan Continuous Duty Solenoid

The Raritan Continuous Duty Solenoid (CDS12) is essential for the reliable operation of marine waste systems, particularly for cruising vessels and commercial applications. Experienced boaters understand that a malfunctioning marine head system can lead to serious issues at sea. This solenoid efficiently controls the discharge valve operation in Raritan waste systems, allowing for safe and effective holding tank emptying without the need for manual valves.

Engineered for continuous duty cycles, the CDS12 can handle repeated on-off switching without the thermal stress that affects standard solenoids in marine environments. This continuous rating is crucial, as the head system may cycle numerous times daily under varying conditions. The robust coil design and sealed construction ensure that it can withstand the corrosive salt-air atmosphere and electrical noise typical of 12-volt DC systems on boats.

Boat owners, liveaboards, and charter operators depend on the CDS12 to maintain their waste systems during offshore passages and extended anchoring. Installation is straightforward for those familiar with basic marine electrical work, and its compact size allows it to fit into tight engine-room spaces easily.
