Solenoid Air Control Valves

Electrically Controlled Air Valves for Industrial Automation

Solenoid air control valves use an electrical signal to switch compressed air flow in pneumatic machinery. The source range includes 2-way, 3-way and 5-way designs with port sizes up to 1/2 NPT, covering functions from simple on/off control to directional control of pneumatic actuators.

The category includes direct-acting and spool-design models with multiple body materials, seal options and electrical connection styles. Standard valves are supplied with 24 VDC coils, with other coil voltages available separately.

Solenoid Valve Range

• 2-way, 3-way and 5-way configurations
• Port sizes up to 1/2 NPT
• Hard-anodized aluminum, stainless steel and thermoplastic body materials
• Direct-acting range listed from 29.9 inHg vacuum to 150 psi(g)
• Spool-design range listed at 20–125 psi(g)

Why Use Solenoid Air Valves?

• Solenoid valves allow pneumatic circuits to be controlled directly from PLCs, relays, sensors and machine-control systems.
• Selecting the correct valve function, port size, flow capacity, pressure range and coil voltage is essential for reliable actuator performance.
