ASCO 8210G8-12VDC Solenoid Valve

The ASCO 8210G8-12VDC Solenoid Valve is a high-performance, 2-way normally closed pilot-operated valve designed for demanding industrial fluid control. This 1 1/4 inch NPT general service valve features a rugged brass body and durable NBR seals, making it an ideal choice for managing the flow of air, water, and light oil. Operating on a 12VDC power supply, it delivers a high flow coefficient of 15 Cv and supports an operating pressure differential of 5-125 PSI. Encased in a NEMA 4X enclosure, this valve provides superior protection against corrosion and environmental elements in washdown or outdoor environments. Engineers frequently specify the ASCO RedHat series for its reliability in HVACR systems, air compressors, and industrial water control where consistent performance is mandatory.

Key Benefits

• Optimized Flow Capacity: Features a high 15 Cv flow factor for efficient media transfer in 1.25-inch piping systems.
• Environmental Protection: The NEMA 4X watertight enclosure ensures reliable operation in corrosive or wet conditions.
• Versatile Media Compatibility: Engineered to handle air, inert gas, water, and light oil up to 300 SSU.
• Reliable Pilot Operation: Utilizes a pilot-operated diaphragm design to maintain tight shut-off and high-pressure performance.
• Industry-Standard Connection: Equipped with 1 1/4" NPT threaded connections for seamless integration into existing American standard plumbing.

Common Questions

What is the difference between a normally closed and normally open solenoid valve?
A normally closed solenoid valve like the 8210G8 remains stopped until electrical power is applied to the coil, at which point it opens. A normally open valve stays open until energized.

Can this valve be used for outdoor applications?
Yes, the NEMA 4X rating indicates that the solenoid enclosure is designed to protect against windblown dust, rain, and hose-directed water, making it suitable for outdoor and washdown environments.

What is the minimum pressure required for this valve to operate?
As a pilot-operated valve, it requires a minimum pressure differential of 5 PSI to move the internal diaphragm and open the flow path.
