This 5/2 electrically-actuated solenoid valve from Festo is used for regulating pneumatic machinery. Its compact length of 10mm is ideal for mounting in small set-ups that need a medium to low flow rate. The valve features an advanced LED (light-emitting diode) display that lets you easily monitor its status. A maximum flow rate of 260l/min means it's suitable for situations where you need a rapid release of liquid or gas media at high volume. You'll find solenoid valves like this in domestic cylinders and vacuum-pressured appliances.
