Summary
We received many feedbacks from customers saying that electric motorized actuator ball valve is a better choice than solenoid valve in many cases because no pressure drop and no water hammer.
What is the difference between electric motorized actuator ball valve and solenoid valve?

Cases in which electric motorized actuator ball valve works better than solenoid valve
∎
Works better than a solenoid, the orifice solenoid would plug up causing to fail open
∎
Valve has only been in service for two weeks but it has been working very well. I love the soft close of the ball valve as opposed to the hard slam of a solenoid valve and the water hammer affect.
∎
Quality ball valves.
Installed several of these and never had and issues after years of use. Much more reliable than solenoid valves.
∎ Replaced my diaphram type spkinkler valves
Replaced my diaphram type spkinkler valves
The standard diaphragm solenoid valves used in sprinkler systems cause significant pressure drop and are also unreliable. A motorized ball valve has no pressure loss which means I can put more sprinklers in a zone. This one makes an easy replacement because it returns to closed when power is removed, like a solenoid valve, and unlike most motorized valves and it can take a wide range of voltages, ac or dc, making it an easy drop-in replacement.
