Technical Data Sheet

The 18001-00 Series is part of OLAB’s X-TREME PLUS range, specifically developed for low-pressure Car Wash applications where modularity, serviceability, and system continuity are critical.

It is a 2/2-way normally closed solenoid valve, indirect-acting and equipped with a flanged interface, perfectly suited for installation on K10081 multi-position manifolds, where each valve has an independent inlet and outlet.
The yellow brass body ensures structural integrity, while the AISI 304L stainless steel sleeve with laser-welded fixed core provides high sealing performance and long-lasting durability, even in wet or splash-prone environments.

Sealing is achieved via NBR, EPDM, or OLAB-certified FKM Plus Hi-Performance gaskets, compatible with water, air, and cleaning agents. Its inspectable design allows full internal access without removing the valve from the hydraulic circuit.


The OLAB 8000BH coil (30 mm Ø14 mm), rated class H (up to 180°C / 356°F), ensures electrical reliability at elevated temperatures. The assembly is fully protected with an IP65 ingress rating, making it safe for harsh industrial conditions. The valve is CE certified, ensuring full compliance with European safety and hydraulic reliability standards for low-pressure systems.


It operates with a maximum static pressure (PS) of 20 bar (290 psi) and a working differential pressure (OPD) range from 0.1 ÷ 0.4 bar (1.5 ÷ 6 psi) up to 12 ÷ 15 bar (174 ÷ 218 psi), with DN ranging from 11.5 to 26 mm (0.45" ÷ 1.02").


As the core valve used in the K10081 manifolds, the 18001-00 X-TREME PLUS Series is engineered to maximize operational uptime, simplify servicing, and reduce maintenance costs in automated Car Wash systems.

  • IP65 protection class
  • Designed for professional hydraulic systems where the assembly of solenoid valves in series is necessary

SOLENOID VALVE DESIGNED FOR LOW-PRESSURE CAR WASH SYSTEMS
Part of the X?TREME PLUS range, the 18001-00 Series is designed for use in multi-position manifolds like the K10081, where its indirect operation ensures reliability in modular systems operating at low pressures.


FLANGED CONNECTION FOR FAST AND PRECISE INSTALLATION
The flanged interface enables quick, stable, and precise mounting, ensuring proper alignment and time efficiency when integrated into Car Wash valve modules.


SERVICEABLE DESIGN WITH FULL INTERNAL ACCESS
The valve is fully inspectable, providing direct access to internal components without removing it from the system, reducing service complexity.


MINIMIZED MAINTENANCE COSTS AND SYSTEM DOWNTIME
Component accessibility and ease of replacement make it possible to lower maintenance costs and drastically cut system downtime, which is critical in automated wash facilities.


MAINTENANCE POSSIBLE WITHOUT SPECIALIZED PERSONNEL
Thanks to its user-friendly design, the 18001-00 Series allows for safe and fast service operations even by non-specialized operators, ensuring continuous and secure operation.
