I am looking for a couple of 12VDC 3-way stainless universal solenoid valves for water use with little success. They need to operate in the 20-30 psi range but have a proof pressure above 1,000 PSI. (The HP pump will be locked out and system pressure reduced before the valve operates.)

Other requirements are:
3/8" NPT fittings preferred on one and 3/4" on the other.
CV > .7

I found a Red Hat that would work but can't find anything about the maximum pressure it can take.
Any suggestions on where to look would be greatly appreciated.
 
I have an Asco solenoid catalogue which probably has your valve in it ( Red Hat Series) - operating pressure differential for water ( with 3/8" connections) is 35 psi-
proof pressure is 5 times safe working pressure -above is from Ascoelectric Asco Solenoid valve catalogue # 32C-
hope this helps -
