The Future of Electric Valves: How Banjo’s EVX Series Delivers Smarter, More Durable Solutions

For too long, electric valves have been a necessary but sometimes cumbersome component in various industrial and agricultural applications. Bulky, with limited feedback, and susceptible to the harsh realities of demanding environments, they often presented a compromise. But the future of flow control is here, and it's smaller, smarter, and tougher than ever before. Enter Banjo's groundbreaking EVX Series of electric valves – a true game-changer poised to redefine industry standards.

Banjo has taken a clean-sheet approach, engineering the EVX series from the ground up to address the limitations of existing electric valve technology. The result? A line of valves that not only performs flawlessly but also integrates seamlessly and provides invaluable insights into its own operation.

Smaller Footprint, Bigger Possibilities

One of the most immediately noticeable advancements of the EVX series is its significantly reduced size. Boasting dimensions up to 40% smaller and weighing 25% less than the average electric valve, the EVX opens up a world of possibilities for system design. In applications where space is at a premium, the compact nature of the EVX allows for more flexible layouts and easier integration.

Banjo's innovative use of the latest welding technology is key to this size reduction. By eliminating traditional bolted connections, they've not only shrunk the product footprint but also eradicated a common source of leaks, enhancing overall system reliability and safety.

Intelligence Built-In: Smarter Flow Control

The EVX series isn't just about being smaller; it's about being smarter. These valves are packed with advanced diagnostic capabilities and communication protocols, transforming them from simple on/off switches into intelligent components within your system.

The EVX offers a remarkable six system protocol availability, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of control systems. From basic direct and white wire control to sophisticated 2 & 4 wire control and advanced protocols like CAN / ISO BUS, the EVX seamlessly integrates into modern digital environments.

Furthermore, the EVX provides critical real-time feedback. An integrated LED indicator clearly displays power status (blue) and alerts to a blown fuse (yellow). Certain models go even further, offering open/close verification via green and red LED indicators. Imagine the enhanced troubleshooting and operational awareness this provides!

But the intelligence doesn't stop there. Select EVX models can also report crucial operational data such as temperature, voltage conditions, and even a cycle counter. This proactive approach allows users to identify potential issues before they escalate into costly downtime, optimizing maintenance schedules and maximizing system uptime.

Built to Endure: Uncompromising Toughness

In demanding applications, durability is paramount. Banjo understands this, and the EVX series has been rigorously tested to withstand the harshest conditions. These valves have successfully passed an astounding 52 separate durability torture tests, including mechanical shock, vibration, extreme temperatures, rain/shine exposure, operating pressure tests, and rigorous longevity assessments.

This commitment to toughness ensures that the EVX series can reliably perform in even the most strenuous environments, providing peace of mind and reducing the need for frequent replacements. Whether it's agricultural spraying, industrial processing, or any other challenging application, the EVX is engineered to go the distance.

Versatility Meets Innovation

The Banjo EVX series is available in a comprehensive range of sizes, including 3/4", 1", 1½", 2", and 3" manifold and threaded port sizes. Recognizing the need for flexibility, Banjo also offers side-load and bottom-load versions that are compatible with existing bolted valve designs, simplifying upgrades and replacements.

The Future is Now

Banjo's EVX series of electric valves represents a significant leap forward in flow control technology. By being smaller, smarter, and tougher than current offerings, these valves deliver tangible benefits in terms of space savings, operational efficiency, diagnostic capabilities, and long-term reliability.

If you're looking for an electric valve solution that not only meets your current needs but also positions you for the future of intelligent and durable flow control, look no further than Banjo's EVX series. It's time to embrace a new era of performance and reliability.
