24 V AC Solenoid Coil for Drain Systems
The Dayton 6X542 coil operates on 24 V AC at 50 Hz or 60 Hz and draws 17 W. It is built for drain and trap assemblies that use a compatible solenoid valve body. Maintenance teams and facility engineers select it when a failed coil stops automatic drainage.
Class F Insulation with Junction Box Enclosure
The coil carries Class F insulation and ships with a NEMA 1 rated junction box that encloses the connections. Six inch leads exit the enclosure for direct wiring to the control circuit. The 1 5/16 in inner diameter and 1 1/4 in height match the specified valve core dimensions.
Direct Replacement for Worn 17 W Coils
This unit replaces a burnt or shorted 17 W coil in the same valve series without changing the pipework or voltage supply. The swap is worthwhile when the enclosure is intact but the winding has failed. It does not suit systems that require a different voltage, wattage or mounting pattern.
