Overview
The ASCO 8210C94 solenoid valve is a 2-way, normally closed general service valve engineered for flexible fluid control across hydraulic, pneumatic, and plumbing applications. This model is part of the proven ASCO RedHat line of solenoid valves, recognized worldwide for durability and precision control. The 8210C94 delivers consistent performance with no minimum operating pressure requirement, allowing flexible mounting in any orientation.
Key Features
- 2-Way, Normally Closed (NC): Single inlet/outlet control; energize coil to open valve
- Pilot-Operated Design: Lower solenoid power demand with smooth operation across pressure range
- Versatile Media Compatibility: Handles air, water, light oil, non-corrosive fluids, and inert gases
- Resilient Seals: NBR seals minimize internal leakage and extend service life
- No Minimum Operating Pressure: Operates effectively at any pressure up to rated maximum
- Watertight Solenoid Enclosure: Protects coil in wet/outdoor environments
