5/2-way solenoid valve, spring return, G 3/8", 2000 l/min, 24 V AC, aluminium body

This 5/2-way solenoid valve operates double-acting cylinders and rotary actuators by pressurising and venting the two working lines in turn. A flow rate of 2000 l/min through G 3/8" ports feeds even larger cylinder volumes without a noticeable pressure drop. The spring return moves the spool back to its initial position on its own as soon as the coil is de-energised, which gives defined states for a safety assessment. Spool and housing are made of aluminium and the seals of NBR. The valve is energised with 24 V AC and draws 4,1 VA.

Advantages

• Flow rate of 2000 l/min across five ports sized G 3/8"
• Switching time below 30 ms at 5 bar supports short machine cycles
• Spring return restores the home position without auxiliary energy
• Housing and spool in aluminium, pilot valve in glass-fibre reinforced polyamide
• Voltage tolerance of ± 10 % absorbs fluctuations on the 24 V AC supply
• Power consumption of only 4,1 VA keeps the control cabinet load low

Applications

• Control of double-acting cylinders with larger volumes and demand up to 2000 l/min
• Rotary actuators and flap controls in plant engineering using G 3/8" lines
• Fixtures that have to assume a defined home position after a power failure
• Packaging and conveying equipment running cycles of a few tenths of a second

Standards and conformity

With the connector fitted, the solenoid coil reaches degree of protection IP 65 and is therefore dust tight and protected against water jets. The permissible voltage tolerance is ± 10 % of the 24 V AC control voltage.
