Eastern ND | These valves are power open/ power close. Older valves with the magnets on them were power open/ spring close.
The red wire needs to go to power that is constant on +. If You turn off the key when You have the valve open (white wire powered), the valve will stay open. If you have the red to constant on + the valve will close when the key is turned off (power removed from white wire).
It is good to wire it correctly, because if someone shuts it off with the valve open, and then for some reason unhooks the wires and starts the pump, it will not spray out of the boom.
It will not drain the battery, unless the valve is bad. Once the valve closes, there is no electricity use. | |
