![]() Both brands offer many colors and the Hayden Supervalve is offered in three door styles: square door 1760 series, full door vertical open 2060 series, full door horizontal open 2070 series.īoth Hayden SuperValve and Vaculine ElectraValve operate & function in the same manner, the difference is how the high voltage wire is installed to the inlet – see item details for more information. From Hayden the direct connect inlet is called a Super Valve, and from Vaculine the direct connect inlets is called the ElectraValve. Also referred to as a One-Step, Dual-Volt or Powered Inlet, the Direct Connect wall valve is offered in two configurations. The Direct Connect Hose Inletĭeveloped in the 90’s, the Direct Connect valve is similar to the Universal inlet in overall size and diameter of the hose connection. Direct Connect dual-volt hoses will not fit into Universal Hose Inlets. Universal hose inlets can be used with no-volt, low-volt and dual voltage universal (corded) hoses. The Universal CV inlet will mount to the CV mounting bracket (another installation component that mounts behind the wall) with two screws that go through the inlet plate and secure into the mounting bracket which are set approximately 3 7/8″ apart vertically. The low voltage signal wires connect to the inlet valve by small screws on the back of the inlet. When you insert the hose into the inlet, the connector pins touch metal plates on the hose end and signal the central vacuum motor to start. These pins are spring mounted and connect to the low voltage signal wires. Inside the inlet opening where the hose is inserted you will see two pins protruding either up or down depending on installation orientation. ![]() ![]() This taper keeps the hose firmly in place while you clean. Once you open the door of the valve the hose inlet is measured at 1.5″ inside diameter (or just slightly larger) which tapers down to about 1.4″ in the back. The inlet door is spring mounted to the plate and usually is square or round in shape or may be a new style full-door. This type of inlet is rectangular in overall shape, measured at 3″ wide by 5″ tall. This is by far the most common valve in use for central cleaning systems over the last 30 years. ![]() Universal inlets are also called Low-Volt, Pig-Tail or Corded Inlet. Aspria Systems offers both the Vaculine and Hayden brand inlets in many colors and most every style available. Vaculine and Hayden are the largest brands of CVS inlets sold in the world. There are two basic styles of wall valve available now for CV systems with two major brands in the market place, Vaculine & Hayden. To know our hoses better, it is necessary to understand the central vacuum inlet wall valve. It was perhaps the addition of an electric power brush that moved central vacuum systems to the mainstream, but without advances in the CV hose, the power brushed central vacuum system would not have been possible. Inlet valves too have progressed from dumb wall plates to automatic connections with integrated wiring and leak proof doors. ![]() While in the early days central vacuum hoses were nothing more than an elongated version o f the portable vacuum’s hose, the modern day CV hose assembly is designed for the unique task of central cleaning. Many things have changed in the preceding 60 years of Central Vacuum history, including many changes to the Central Vacuum hose and inlet valves that have made for more convenient and reliable cleaning systems.
