Overview
The Parker 12F23C2148ACF4C05 is a general-purpose 2-way normally closed solenoid valve from Parker’s legacy Gold Ring and Skinnerâ„¢ series. This direct-lift valve features a forged brass body designed for reliable flow control in industrial, commercial, and light fluid applications. The valve remains closed until energized, making it ideal for safety-critical stop/start applications in pneumatic, hydraulic, water, and light oil systems.
Key Features
- Direct Lift Design: Provides fast response and consistent flow control without poppet wear concerns
- 2-Way Normally Closed: Valve is sealed until solenoid coil is energized; ideal for emergency shutoff applications
- Brass Body Construction: Forged brass provides corrosion resistance and durability in diverse fluid environments
- 18″ Coil Lead Wires: Simplifies integration into existing control circuits and panel installations
- NBR Seal Material: Compatible with water, light oil, and air/gas applications with good chemical resistance
- Compact 3/4″ Port Size: Balances flow capacity with space-efficient mounting
