ASCO 8210G11-12VDC Solenoid Valve

The ASCO 8210G11-12VDC Solenoid Valve is a 2-way normally open, pilot operated valve designed for high-flow reliability in systems handling air, inert gas, water, or light oils. This heavy-duty brass body solenoid valve features a 3/8" NPT connection and a robust 12V DC coil, making it a staple for mobile equipment, remote field sites, and DC-powered industrial control loops. With a substantial 3 Cv flow coefficient, it manages pressure differentials from 5 to 250 PSI for air and up to 200 PSI for liquids. The NBR (Buna-N) seals provide consistent shut-off across a wide temperature range, while the NEMA 4X enclosure ensures the internal components remain protected against corrosion and washdown environments. This general service solenoid is engineered for high-cycle performance in applications where the valve must remain open during power loss or for extended periods without energizing the coil, reducing heat soak and power consumption.

• Enhanced Reliability: The pilot-operated diaphragm design provides high flow rates and tight shut-off with minimal power requirements.
• Rugged Construction: Industrial-grade brass body and NEMA 4X watertight/corrosion-resistant enclosure for demanding installations.
• High Pressure Capability: Safely handles up to 250 PSI for air and 200 PSI for water/oil, covering most commercial and industrial service needs.
• Optimized 12V DC Operation: Ideal for battery-backed systems, solar-powered sites, and mobile machinery applications.

Is the ASCO 8210G11 suitable for gravity-fed systems?
No, this is a pilot operated solenoid valve which requires a minimum operating pressure differential of 5 PSI to lift the diaphragm and function correctly. For zero-pressure or vacuum applications, a direct-acting valve is required.

What media is compatible with the NBR seals?
The standard NBR (Buna-N) seals are excellent for air, water, and light oils (up to 300 SSU). If you are running high-temperature steam or aggressive chemicals, contact us to verify seal compatibility.

Can I mount this valve in any orientation?
While ASCO 8210 series valves can technically be mounted in any position, it is best practice for technicians to install them with the solenoid vertical and upright to prevent debris from settling in the core tube and causing premature wear.
