Solenoid Operated Valves 5 Way G1/8 Ports Poppet & Spool Design.
Pneumatic solenoid operated valves shown within this section are available as a 5/2 way valve function with either a poppet or spool valve design. Poppet valves use O-rings, gaskets and seals, designed to offer higher flow rates than spool valves. Spool valves are designed using a stainless steel spool and plastic liner. Although spool valves have lower flow rates than poppet type designs, they are better known for their long life expectancy.
Valve variations include single solenoid coil control with a spring return or double solenoid coil control with or without priority, used for preferential positioning of the valve should two opposing electrical signals occur at the same time. We also offer 5/3 way double pilot control valves with either all ports closed or all ports exhaust central position.
Solenoid operators (coils) and connecting plugs are purchased separately, voltages offered are 12V DC, 24; 48; 110V AC/DC or 230V AC, coils simply slide onto the brass stem, a threaded cap secures the coil in place, a wiring plug can then be connected.
The main body of the valve is constructed using a light glass fibre reinforced plastic material, the main valve ports are machined from brass providing strength and reliability; all threaded connections are G1/8. Solenoid valves include a red manual override lever for the easy testing of pneumatic circuits.
Mounting can be through the pre-drilled 4.5mm holes in the main body of the valve, alternatively they can be manifold mounted providing a neat and tidy installation.
