Glastender 01000561 Genuine OEM Water Inlet Solenoid Valve – 120V 60Hz

Product Overview

Glastender 01000561 is a genuine OEM 120V water inlet solenoid valve designed for select Glastender commercial glasswashers. The valve controls incoming water flow during the equipment's fill and rinse functions, helping the glasswasher receive water when commanded and shut off the supply when the cycle no longer requires it.

This genuine Glastender replacement component is intended for commercial foodservice glasswashing equipment where the installed valve and equipment identification match OEM / MPN 01000561.

Product Identification

• Manufacturer: Glastender
• OEM / MPN: 01000561
• Part Type: Water Inlet Solenoid Valve
• Equipment Type: Commercial Glasswasher
• Voltage: 120V
• Frequency: 60Hz
• Application: Water Fill / Inlet Control
• Condition: New

Function & Purpose

The Glastender 01000561 water inlet valve electrically controls water entering the glasswasher. When the machine calls for water, the solenoid is energized so the valve can open and allow water into the appropriate portion of the wash or rinse system. When the electrical signal is removed, the valve should close and stop incoming water flow.

Reliable valve operation is important for proper filling, rinse performance, water-level control, and consistent glasswasher operation.

Common Failure Symptoms

Inspection of the Glastender 01000561 water inlet solenoid valve may be appropriate when technicians observe:

• Glasswasher does not fill with water
• Unit fills unusually slowly
• Intermittent fill or rinse operation
• Water continues entering when the valve should be closed
• Inconsistent water delivery during the operating cycle
• Valve receives proper voltage but does not open
• Evidence of leakage around the valve or plumbing connections

These symptoms can have more than one cause. Water supply pressure, shutoff valves, inlet restrictions, wiring, controls, plumbing connections, and other components should be inspected before condemning the solenoid valve.

Technician Diagnostic Notes

Before replacing the water inlet valve, verify the complete water and electrical circuit whenever possible.

• Confirm that the building water supply and equipment shutoff valve are open.
• Inspect the incoming water line for restrictions, kinks, or debris.
• Check the valve and surrounding fittings for signs of leakage.
• Verify wiring and electrical connections are secure.
• Confirm that the valve receives the correct electrical signal when the equipment calls for water.
• Inspect related controls if the valve is not being energized.
• Confirm the replacement valve matches the equipment model, serial information, voltage, and plumbing configuration.

Service Safety: Disconnect electrical power and shut off the water supply before servicing the valve or associated plumbing. Commercial glasswasher service should be performed by qualified personnel familiar with electrical and water-control systems.

Commercial Applications

Glastender 01000561 is used in select Glastender commercial glasswashing equipment. Verified model references include:

• GW24
• GT-18
• GT-18+1
• GT-18+1L
• GT-18+1R
• GT-18+2
• GT-18+2-IC

Before You Order

Start by confirming the Glastender OEM number 01000561 whenever possible. Then compare the equipment model and serial tag with the installed water inlet valve.

Also verify:

• 120V electrical requirement
• Existing valve configuration
• Water inlet and outlet connections
• Electrical terminal configuration
• Equipment model and serial number

Do not select a commercial water inlet solenoid valve based only on appearance. Similar-looking valves may have different voltage ratings, electrical characteristics, flow configurations, or plumbing connections.

PartsDirectOnline recommends identifying commercial equipment components by the manufacturer OEM number whenever possible.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Glastender 01000561?

Glastender 01000561 is a genuine OEM 120V, 60Hz water inlet solenoid valve used on select Glastender commercial glasswashers. It controls incoming water flow during equipment operation.

What does the Glastender 01000561 water inlet valve do?

The valve opens when electrically energized so incoming water can enter the glasswasher during the appropriate portion of the operating cycle. It closes when water flow is no longer required.

What voltage is Glastender 01000561?

Glastender 01000561 is specified as a 120V, 60Hz water inlet solenoid valve. Always confirm the electrical requirements of the installed equipment before replacement.

What Glastender models use the 01000561 valve?

Verified applications include select GW24, GT-18, GT-18+1, GT-18+1L, GT-18+1R, GT-18+2, GT-18+2-IC, GT-24, and GT-30 glasswashers. Model and serial information should still be confirmed because production changes can affect component selection.

Does Glastender 01000561 replace 01000688?

Glastender 01000561 is identified as the replacement for the obsolete 01000688 water inlet assembly in applicable GT-24 configurations. Verify the specific equipment and existing plumbing arrangement before ordering for an older unit.

Why is my Glastender glasswasher not filling with water?

A failed water inlet valve can cause a no-fill condition, but it is not the only possible cause. Check the incoming water supply, shutoff valve, plumbing restrictions, electrical supply to the solenoid, wiring, and equipment controls before replacing the valve.

Why does water continue entering my glasswasher?

A valve that is contaminated, mechanically stuck, damaged, or unable to close properly can allow unwanted water flow. Control problems can produce similar symptoms, so technicians should determine whether the valve is being electrically commanded open before replacing it.

How do I confirm Glastender 01000561 fits my equipment?

Confirm OEM number 01000561 first, then compare the equipment model and serial number, 120V electrical requirement, valve connections, plumbing arrangement, and installed component. Do not rely solely on the valve's appearance.
