Festo 5/2 Monostable Solenoid Valve - Electrical G 1/4 MFH Series, 150981

Need a reliable valve for your pneumatic system? This solenoid valve from Festo is designed for effective flow control at a high flow rate of up to 1200L/min. It has an aluminium die-cast housing that's resistant to corrosion and heat, making it a good choice for use in demanding industrial environments. For greater control of your system, you can mount the unit on a hydraulic manifold to connect multiple valves and components together. This type of valve is commonly used in fluid power motors and domestic appliances such as dishwashers and washing machines.

• Wide operating temperature range of -5°C to +40 °C for industrial use
• IP65 (ingress protection) rating means it's protected against dust and low-pressure water jets
• Manual override function for safe use in the event of power loss

• Pneumatic and hydraulic systems
• HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning) systems

A 5/2 valve like this one has five ports and two positions – it's an effective choice for use with a double-acting cylinder. As it's monostable, it's returned to its original position by a spring when it's not actuated. Monostable valves typically need less wiring than bistable alternatives.
