ASCO 8210G74 Solenoid Valve

The ASCO 8210G74 Solenoid Valve is a robust, industrial-grade 2-way normally closed valve engineered for precision control in fuel gas shutoff systems and general service applications. Utilizing a pilot-operated mechanism, this 3/8-inch NPT valve ensures a reliable seal and efficient flow management for air, inert gas, water, and light oil. The unit features a durable brass body paired with NBR (Buna-N) seals, delivering a high flow coefficient of 2.8 Cv, which translates to a capacity of approximately 150,000 BTU/hr. Designed for versatility, it operates on a standard 120VAC power supply and supports a functional pressure range from 0 to 50 PSI. To withstand demanding environments, the valve is housed in a NEMA 4X airtight and watertight enclosure, providing superior protection against corrosion and moisture. Whether integrated into HVAC gas lines, large-scale laundry equipment, or industrial water control systems, the 8210G74 offers the technical reliability required for critical automated processes.

Key Benefits:

• Enhanced Durability: The corrosion-resistant brass body and NEMA 4X rating ensure long-term performance in harsh indoor and outdoor settings.
• Efficient Gas Control: Specifically optimized for pilot-operated gas shutoff, offering a secure, normally closed fail-safe position.
• High Flow Capacity: A 2.8 Cv flow factor allows for significant volume handling, suitable for residential and commercial heating applications.
• Resilient Sealing: Equipped with Buna-N (NBR) seals to prevent internal leakage and maintain pressure integrity up to 50 PSI.
• Universal Compatibility: Standard 3/8" NPT ports and 120V AC operation allow for seamless replacement or integration into existing ASCO RedHat systems.

Common Questions:

Is the ASCO 8210G74 suitable for outdoor installation?
Yes, the NEMA 4X enclosure is specifically designed to provide watertight and dust-tight protection, making it ideal for outdoor use and wash-down environments.

Can this valve be used for liquids other than gas?
While optimized for fuel gas applications, it is also rated for air, inert gas, water, and light oils (up to 300 SSU) within its specified temperature and pressure limits.

What is the difference between a pilot-operated and a direct-acting valve?
As a pilot-operated solenoid valve, the 8210G74 uses the fluid pressure itself to assist in opening and closing, allowing it to handle higher flow rates (2.8 Cv) compared to direct-acting models of a similar size.
