SV3-12-C Series 2-Way, 2-Position, Normally Closed Solenoid Cartridge Valve, Housing: None, Coil: Not Included

Description & Features

The Vickers by Danfoss / Eaton SV3-12-C/CM/CR Series Solenoid Valve is designed for high-pressure applications with a rating of 350 bar (5000 psi) and a flow rating of 30 GPM. Suitable for mobile and industrial needs, this valve is reliable and compact.

Constructed from hardened and ground steel, it ensures durability and longevity. The 2-way, 2-position, normally closed valve operates efficiently with less than 5 drops/min internal leakage at 3000 psi and features Buna-N seals for secure performance.

The installation type is a screw-in cartridge, with a cavity size of C-12-2 or C-12-2U. It is recommended to maintain an ISO 4406 cleanliness level of 18/16/13 or cleaner for optimal operation. This valve supports a temperature range of -40deg;F to 248deg;F.

In its de-energized state, it blocks flow from port 2 to port 1 while allowing free flow from port 1 to port 2, and when energized, it opens in both directions. The coil, which is sold separately, is a J series, 23 Watt model.

Question by: Lance S on May 15, 2025, 7:43 PM
so with it sittin there de-energized, which way is blocked and which way is free flow?
Answer by: Customer Support on May 17, 2025, 2:51 PM
In the de-energized state it blocks flow from port 2 to port 1, and it allows free flow from port 1 to port 2. When you energize the solenoid, it opens up for flow in both directions.

trying to figure out what coil goes on this valve. does it come in the box or do i gotta buy it separate
Answer by: Customer Support on May 7, 2025, 6:47 AM
Buying the bare cartridge means you need to get the coil and housing separately. The correct coil for this unit is a J series 23-watt model. If you lack an existing manifold, look for a housing with a C-12-2 or C-12-2U cavity size.

valve blocks flow one way when it ain't powered up, right? trying to figure out if this'll work for a load holding setup on a harvester
Answer by: Customer Support on Aug 15, 2025, 9:22 AM
Correct on the flow behavior. When the solenoid is off, flow from port 2 to port 1 is blocked, but fluid can still move freely from port 1 to port 2. Once you energize it, the pilot poppet lifts off the seat and the valve opens in both directions. Low leakage applications like load holding are exactly what this was built for, and it sees regular use on harvesters and similar mobile equipment for that reason. Just keep in mind the coil and housing are both sold separately, so you'll need to source those alongside the cartridge.
Question by: Wes F on Jan 8, 2026, 1:43 PM
reckon this valve will hold up on my harvester? We run that thing pretty hard.
Answer by: Customer Support on Jan 10, 2026, 10:09 AM
Designed for both mobile and industrial applications, this Vickers/Eaton solenoid valve is built to handle high-pressure jobs, up to 5000 psi. It should be a solid choice for your harvester, assuming it meets the other spec requirements.
