Specifications
Solenoid Enclosures: Valves listed in this series have Red-Hat II molded epoxy solenoids. Red-Hat II valves are identified by the change letter "G" in their catalog numbers, e.g., 8342G1, and are shown in red.

Standard Enclosures:
Types 1, 2, 3, 3S, 4 and 4X Combination General Purpose and Watertight

Optional Enclosures:
Types 3, 3S, 4, 4X, 6, 6P, 7 and 9 Combination Explosionproof and Watertight. To order, add prefix "EF" to catalog number.

Additional constructions are available. The Optional Features Section contains descriptions and ordering information for: Open Frame Solenoids · Junction Box Enclosures · Panel Mount Constructions.


Dual Solenoid Operation:
Solenoid may be energized momentarily (¹/10 second) or energized continuously.
Caution: Do not energize both solenoids simultaneously.

Electrical: Standard Voltages: 24, 120, 240, 480 volts, AC, 60 Hz (or 110, 220 volts, AC, 50 Hz)

Other voltages are available when required.

Coil: Continuous duty molded Class F.

Nominal Ambient Temperature Ranges: 32°F to 125°F.


Valve Parts in Contact with Fluids:
Body -- Brass or 304 s.s., as listed
Seals and Disc -- Buna "N" and Viton*
Core Tube -- 305 s.s.
Core and Plugnut -- 430F s.s.
Springs -- 302 s.s.
Shading Coil -- Copper
Sleeve -- Nylon
Seats -- Rulon**

Optional: Adjustable flow controls regulate speed of the cylinder pistons in either direction. Flow adjustment of both Cylinder A and B ports is independantly controlled.

Approvals: CSA certified. UL listed as a General Purpose Valve.

Ordering Information: Important: We must have catalog number, voltage and Hertz, operating pressure and fluid handled. Use strainers with Solenoid Valves.
