The 018F6701 BE230AS coil is part of Danfoss’s BE‑series solenoid coils, specifically designed to drive Danfoss industrial and refrigeration solenoid valves in demanding environments. It operates from a 220–230 V AC supply at 50 Hz (coil consumption approx. 12 W) and at 60 Hz (approx. 11–12 W), providing the magnetic force required to actuate compatible normally‑closed or normally‑open solenoid valve bodies. The coil features an integrated terminal box for electrical connection rather than a DIN plug, offering robust wiring and good environmental sealing in fixed installations.
The BE230AS coil is built for use in aggressive environments with high humidity and temperature fluctuations, such as refrigeration and air‑conditioning systems, and carries an IP67 enclosure rating, meaning it is dust‑tight and protected against temporary immersion when correctly installed. It is compatible with a wide range of Danfoss solenoid valves, including many EV2xx series, and is explicitly listed for use with EV210B, EV212B, EV220B (6–22, 15–50, 65–100), EV222B, EV224B, EV227B, EV250B and EV251B valve bodies, making it a versatile replacement coil across many valve sizes and media (water, steam, oil, air, gases).
The coil is typically supplied as a clip‑on or mounted coil complete with terminal box housing, grommet and fixing hardware, and can replace other BE230AS variants such as 018F8701, which is identified as electrically identical in several catalogs. It is intended for mains connection by a qualified electrician; the terminal box does not include a mains plug, and local electrical codes require hard‑wired installation and, where needed, suitable over‑current protection. Typical applications include servo‑operated and direct‑operated solenoid valves used for controlling water, steam, refrigerants and neutral liquids in refrigeration plants, HVAC systems, industrial cooling and general process control.
