Hello all, I need some info about a motorised 2 way valve which is going to be used for a non central heating application.
My question is, when the motor is energised and the valve either closes or opens (depending on the type) does the motor remain energised even though the the job is complete, and the return spring can only work when the current is switched off.
If that is so wouldn't the motor become hot by not being able to turn, or is there an internal micro switch that cuts of the 240volt supply at the end of it's travel, but thinking about it that would allow the spring to do it's job when the valve need to stay open or closed.
any info appreciated
Regards vectraguy
