Overview
The MAC PME-221BAAA solenoid valve is a pilot-operated control valve designed for precise fluid and gas management in pneumatic and hydraulic systems. This 24VAC, 50/60Hz unit delivers reliable actuation with minimal power consumption at 6.7W, making it ideal for energy-conscious industrial applications. The valve features a non-locking recessed manual operator and flying leads for flexible installation.
Key Features
- 24VAC, 50/60Hz — Standard industrial voltage operation, compatible with most plant electrical infrastructure
- 6.7W Power Consumption — Efficient solenoid design minimizes coil heat and extends service life
- Non-Locking Manual Override — Recessed operator allows manual actuation without removing the solenoid coil
- Operating Pressure Range: 25–150 PSI — Versatile pressure envelope for general industrial pneumatic and fluid control
- Flying Leads Connection — Direct wire termination for panel-mount or remote solenoid piloting applications
- Proven Reliability — MAC Valves’ legacy of over 75+ years in industrial valve manufacturing
