Parker 08FS5C2432ACH Valve
Establish reliable steam flow control with the Parker 08FS5C2432ACH, a 1/2-inch normally closed solenoid valve engineered specifically for high-demand thermal systems. This Gold Ring Series valve features a rugged forged brass body and industrial-grade PTFE seals, making it a staple for technicians servicing dry cleaning equipment, autoclaves, and commercial sterilizers. Rated for 125 PSI steam pressure, it utilizes a pivoted edge diaphragm design to ensure positive shut-off and consistent performance in temperatures up to 353°F.
The Parker 08FS5C2432ACH is built with a 3.6 Cv flow coefficient and requires a 1.0 PSI minimum pressure differential to function correctly. This pilot-operated steam valve is designed for compatibility with Class H solenoid coils (typically 11W AC) to handle the intense heat exposure found in steam atomization and laundry equipment. Note that this unit is provided as a pressure vessel and does not include the solenoid coil. When replacing an existing Parker 1/2" steam valve, verify the port size and internal orifice match your system requirements to maintain optimal boiler efficiency and prevent premature seal degradation.
Key Benefits- High-Temperature Durability: Rated for media temperatures up to 353°F, mitigating the risk of thermal failure in continuous-duty steam cycles.
- Internal Debris Tolerance: Designed with robust internals to reduce sticking caused by mineral deposits and boiler scale common in older piping runs.
- Precise Flow Regulation: The 3.6 Cv rating provides controlled throughput for autoclaves and sterilizers requiring steady pressure maintenance.
- Industry-Standard Ports: Features 1/2-inch FNPT threaded connections for direct in-line installation without custom adapters.
- What is the minimum pressure required for operation? This valve requires a minimum differential pressure of 1 PSI to lift the diaphragm and allow flow.
- Why is the valve not opening even when energized? Check that the pressure differential across the valve meets the 1 PSI threshold and ensure the solenoid coil voltage matches the power supply.
- Can this be used for hot water service? While primarily a steam solenoid valve, the brass and PTFE construction is rated for hot water, though the 125 PSI limit applies to steam applications.
