Abstract
An electric valve includes a motor, a power transmission mechanism that converts rotational movement generated by the motor into axial movement of a valve body, a housing that accommodates at least a part of the power transmission mechanism and the motor, an external connector that is provided to the housing and enables power supply to the motor and communication with a control device connected via a network, and a control substrate that is provided in the housing, processes the communication and controls the motor, and has a connection position connected to an external connector-side terminal and a connection position connected to a motor-side terminal disposed on opposite sides to each other with respect to the axis of the motor.
