This innovative solenoid valve from Festo is externally piloted so it works with vacuum applications and air pressures as low as -0.9 bar. The electrical sensors have a quick switching time between 21ms and 41ms to make it highly responsive. You can swiftly detect problems thanks to the integrated LED (light-emitting diode) display, which shows the status of the valve. With a piston slide design, mechanical spring reset and corrosion-resistant aluminium case, it's a durable component for your pneumatic system.

• Sub-base mounting style for quick and flexible modular set-up
• IP65 (ingress protection) rating means it's dust-tight and moisture-resistant for use in harsh industrial environments
• Wide operating temperature range of -5°C to +50°C for use in demanding applications

• Laboratory equipment
• Food and beverage industry
• Process automation
• Conveyor and packaging technology

This Festo solenoid valve can safely operate at pressures up to 16 bar.

It has a 5/2 function which means it's a five-port, two-position valve with an exhaust vent.
