Overview
The ASCO 8353C3 solenoid valve is a dependable 2-port, normally-closed pulse valve designed for dust collector and pneumatic filtration systems. Operating between 5–125 PSI with a 3/4″ NPT port size and aluminum body construction, this valve delivers reliable high-flow switching for reverse-jet dust collection applications. The 120V solenoid coil provides prompt and repeatable opening and closing action essential for efficient bag-cleaning cycles in industrial settings.
