Festo 5/2 Double Solenoid Pneumatic Solenoid Valve - Pilot/Pilot G 1/4 VSNC Series 24V dc, 577258

Introducing our VSNC solenoid valve series from FESTO. The series feature valves that are called "Pilot Valves". These Valves are used for single and double acting quarter turn linear actuators. The valves are convertible and could be changed from 3/2 way to 5/2 way through turning the seal 180°. This feature allows you to operate single or double acting actuators with one valve. These solenoid valves meet the highest safety standards.

• Port pattern in accordance with VDI/VDE 3845 - Such as DRD/DRE, DAPS, DFPB and DLP
• Mounting can be achieved on actuators without a NAMUR interface. (must be with appropriate accessory - i.e.: Connection Kit)
• A great solution for process automation
• Mechanical springs (single-solenoid valves) ensure safe switching to the initial position - in the event of a power failure
• Conversion from 3/2-way to 5/2-way valve through turning the seal, single solenoid
• Facilitates single or double acting actuators, controlled with one valve
• Durable and robust
• Mechanical spring reset
• Operating temperature ranges between -20°C to 60°C
• They can be used in process automation

Solenoid valves generate a magnetic field from an electric current, in turn they operate a mechanism used to regulate the opening of fluid flow valves.

This pneumatic solenoid valve offers precise control in automation applications. Designed as a 5/2 double solenoid valve with a G 1/4 connection, it facilitates the operation of double-acting actuators with ease. This reliable solution is adept at managing airflow efficiently across its five-port configuration, ensuring smooth operational dynamics.

• Combines pilot operation for enhanced flexibility in control
• Designed for a maximum flow rate of 1200 l/min
• Supports operational pressures from 1.5 to 10 bar
• Constructed from durable wrought aluminium alloy
• Equipped with IP65-rated coils for dust and water resistance

• Utilised in industrial automation for actuator control
• Applied in process automation environments needing reliable valve actuation
• Used in systems requiring safe operation within hazardous areas
• Suitable for controlling pneumatic actuators in various installations

The ATEX certification ensures that the valve is safe for use in potentially explosive atmospheres, confirming its reliability in controlling operations under strict safety regulations.

This valve operates effectively within a temperature range of -20°C to +60°C, making it suitable for diverse industrial environments and ensuring consistent performance throughout its operational range.

Yes, the valve is designed to allow conversion from a 3/2-way to a 5/2-way function, providing versatile control capabilities depending on system requirements.

Regular checks for cleanliness and proper lubrication of the operating medium are advisable to maintain the valve’s efficiency and prolong its lifespan in operations.
