Overview
The Burkert 5413 G 1/4 NBR PL solenoid valve is a pilot-operated 4/2-way pneumatic directional control valve designed for industrial fluid power systems. With a maximum operating pressure of 145 PSI (10 bar) and 1/4″ ported connections, this valve delivers precise directional switching for pneumatic automation, manufacturing equipment, and legacy industrial systems. The model features an NBR (nitrile) seal poppet and polyamide body for durability and compatibility with mineral oil and water-glycol fluids.
