Hi,
I am attaching the datasheet of the valve that I want to control.
The valve will need to open and close for a few milliseconds only. eg. In a single run, it will open two times like this:
- Open for 80ms - remain closed for 50ms - then open for 80ms and then close.
This process can repeat for say about 100 times in whole day. Not more than that.
Do you think that using 9V battery to control this is a good idea?
I know that ideally I should use 12V AC with 1A voltage. But since the usage is so low and for such small fraction of second, I was wondering if I can save the hassle of cable clutter by using 9V battery instead.
Concerns I am looking at are:
1. Will the battery or valve heat up a lot?
2. Will the battery die too soon?
3. Will there be any loss of valve performance?
Any suggestions are appreciated.
