Overview
The Burkert 5413 G 1/4 NBR PL is a pilot-operated 4/2-way solenoid valve designed for pneumatic control applications in industrial automation. This valve features manual override as standard, making it suitable for both automatic operation and emergency manual control. With a maximum pressure rating of 145 PSI and 1/4″ NPT port connections, the Burkert 5413 G 1/4 NBR PL serves demanding fluid-control applications across manufacturing, packaging, and process automation industries.
Key Features
- 4/2-Way Pilot Operation: Two assembled 3/2-way valves with a counter built-in servo piston; the servo piston is operated at input pressure and pushed either apart or towards the valve center
- Manual Override: Emergency manual control capability for safe system shutdown
- NBR Seal Poppet: Nitrile rubber seals deliver long service life and resistance to industrial fluids
- Polyamide Body (PL): Lightweight, corrosion-resistant housing suitable for varied industrial environments
- Compact Design: Mounting via four M4 × 8 mm tapped holes on valve underside for easy panel or manifold integration
- Low Switching Pressure Drop: Requires minimum pressure difference of 1 bar for switching, reducing energy consumption
