Festo 5/2 Solenoid Valve - Pilot G 1/4 VUVS Series, 575509

For pinpoint control over airflow in your pneumatic system, grab this solenoid valve from Festo. As it's a monostable device, it's only activated while the coil is powered up, returning to its original position when the current is turned off. This means you can be sure it's doing its job while it's switched on. A 5/2 configuration means this unit has 5 ports and 2 switching positions, so it's well suited to driving and exhausting double-acting cylinders. With a hefty flow rate of up to 1300L/min, this is an ideal option for demanding applications.
