ASCO 8320G174 Valve
The ASCO 8320G174 Solenoid Valve is a high-performance 3-way universal solenoid valve engineered for precision fluid control in demanding industrial environments. As part of the ASCO RedHat series, this direct acting solenoid valve features a rugged brass body and NBR seals, making it an ideal choice for managing air, inert gas, water, and light oil. With its 1/4 inch NPT port size and 120VAC power configuration, it offers a .12 Cv flow coefficient and operates reliably with no minimum pressure required (0 to 150 PSI). Designed for durability, the NEMA 4X enclosure provides superior protection against corrosion and harsh weather, ensuring long-lasting service in HVACR and automation systems. This general service valve can be mounted in any position, providing maximum flexibility for compact piping layouts and complex industrial assembles.
Key Benefits of the ASCO 8320G174
- Universal 3-Way Operation: Functions as normally closed, normally open, or universal for versatile system integration.
- Harsh Environment Protection: The NEMA 4X watertight and dust-tight housing excels in washdown and outdoor applications.
- Direct Acting Reliability: Capable of operating from a full vacuum up to maximum rated pressure without pilot assistance.
- Resilient Construction: Features a brass body and Buna-N (NBR) sealing for excellent chemical compatibility with standard media.
- Simplified Installation: Compact design and 1/4 NPT connections allow for quick mounting in any orientation.
Common Questions About 3-Way Solenoid Valves
Can the ASCO 8320G174 handle high-cycle applications?
Yes, this model belongs to a series known for high-cycle life, often rated for millions of cycles when used with dry, filtered air or gas.
What is the difference between Universal and Normally Closed functions?
A 3-way universal valve like the 8320G174 can be plumbed to perform as either normally closed or normally open, offering more flexibility than specialized single-function valves.
Does this valve require a minimum operating pressure?
No, because it is a direct acting valve, it does not require a pressure differential to open or close, making it suitable for low-pressure and gravity-fed systems.
