Function & Importance of the Washer Water Inlet Valve

The CW-347 valve is part of the Robertshaw E-2T mixing valve series, specifically engineered for laundry washer applications. It controls the entry of hot and cold water into the machine while also monitoring water temperature using an integrated thermistor.

Key functional roles include:

• Regulating water flow during fill cycles

• Mixing hot and cold water accurately

• Ensuring correct temperature for selected wash settings

• Preventing overflow or underfilling

Its OEM-grade construction ensures stable performance under varying pressure conditions and long-term reliability.

Why OEM Quality Matters

This valve features:

• Pilot-operated diaphragm for efficient, high-flow performance

• Slow-closing mechanism to reduce water hammer and extend lifespan

• Stainless steel inlet screens to filter debris

• Compatibility with standard washer water pressures and temperatures

Using a genuine or OEM-grade valve ensures your washer operates safely and efficiently without leaks, pressure issues, or inconsistent cycle performance.

Common Symptoms of a Faulty Water Inlet Valve

If your washing machine is experiencing any of the following issues, replacing the CW-347 valve is often the correct fix:

• Washer not filling with water

• Overfilling or continuous water flow

• No hot water or no cold water supply

• Slow or weak water intake

• Washer not starting due to fill errors

• Leaking from the valve area

• Poor washing performance due to incorrect water levels

These are classic signs of inlet valve failure and directly relate to water control problems.
