Overview
The Asco 8210G055 is a 2-way, normally closed pilot-operated solenoid valve designed for high-flow general service applications. This valve features a normally closed, pilot-operated design with a brass body, offering high-flow capabilities for air, water, and light oil systems. Designed to handle pressures up to 150 psi, this valve is ideal for pumps, chemical processing, and water control systems where automatic flow regulation is required, particularly in high-volume applications.
Key Features
- 2-way, normally closed, brass body with 1-1/4FPT x 1-1/8in orifice
- Fail-closed design: automatically shuts off when power is lost, ensuring system safety
- Rated for 150/150/125 psid max at 180°F for air/water/light oil service
- High flow capacity: perfect for large-scale fluid control in industrial systems
- Compliant to NSF/ANSI 372 low lead requirements
- Industrial applications include car wash equipment, air compressors, pumps, laundry equipment, and industrial water control
