V-Solenoid II

Multi-million cycle life reliability. The innovative design and all composite construction means the V-Solenoid II is not affected by wear or corrosion.
Set 5/2 or 3/2 function simply by turning the rotary seal plate 180º, dramatically reducing parts inventory.
High airflow: Cv>1.1 (1100 L/min) (I-Safe Cv=0.8)
Manual override built in - no extra parts required
Operating temperature range: -4ºF to +140ºF (-20ºC to +60ºC)
For extreme environmental corrosion protection, all threaded inserts and armature components can be supplied in stainless steel
Direct mounting conforms to Namur VDI/VDE 3845 standard.
Exhaust feedback - provides spring chamber with instrument air preventing corrosion.
Very competitively priced with a wide variety of available options

Unique patented poppet valve technology provides high flow, fast response, high temperature and multi-million cycle life reliability.
Patented poppet valve design minimizes friction by utilizing dual static rolling diaphragm-poppet seals.
Advantage of this design is its suitability to cryogenic environments. Wide operating temperature range -4ºF to +140ºF (-20C to +60C)

Typical O-Ring Seal Design

Poppet Valve Design

- Traditional Solenoid Valves operate a spool to direct the airflow.

- The O-ring type seals are subject to constant abrasion, reducing their lifetime and reliability.

- The operating temperature is ussually limited to no less than -5ºC

By turning the patented rotary sealing plate 180º, the operating made can easily be changed from 5/2 to 3/2 function.
The V-Solenoid II can be used on both double acting and single acting actuators.
Many competitors solenoid valves either work on a 5/2 or 3/2 function requiring stocking for both solenoid valves.
