Looking for a reliable control valve for use in your pneumatic system? This 5/2 monostable pneumatic valve from Festo features two independent exhaust ports, offering extra control possibilities. Either a solenoid or an air pilot can operate it with electrical actuation, which enables high-speed operation and remote control. The valve offers a rapid switching speed and comes with a manual override function, so you can take over when more control is needed. It's designed for mounting on a manifold as part of a space-efficient installation.

• Die-cast zinc housing combines light weight with strength
• Nitrile rubber seals guard against leakage
• IP65 (ingress protection) rating means it's dust-proof and will stand up to jets of water

• Air tools
• Pneumatic systems
• Factory automation

A monostable valve is held in its home position by a spring. When the valve is actuated, it switches to its energized state. When the power is released, it returns to its home position.

5/2 valves are commonly used to control double-acting cylinders.
