ASCO 8210G8-240V Solenoid Valve

The ASCO 8210G8-240V Solenoid Valve is a high-performance, 2-way normally closed pilot-operated valve designed for demanding HVACR and industrial applications. Built with a rugged brass body and durable NBR seals, this 1-1/4" NPT valve offers an impressive 15 Cv flow factor, making it an ideal solution for managing high-volume flow in air, water, and light oil systems. Engineered as part of the ASCO RedHat II series, it utilizes a 240Vac power supply and features a NEMA 4X enclosure, providing superior protection against corrosion and water ingress in harsh environments. Whether used in car washes, large-scale air compressors, or industrial water control, the ASCO 8210G8 ensures low internal leakage and a long service life. This general service solenoid valve operates within a pressure range of 5-150 PSI for air and water, and 5-100 PSI for light oil, delivering consistent pilot-operated reliability for critical infrastructure.

Key Benefits:

• High Flow Capacity: Features a 15 Cv rate to handle significant fluid and gas volumes efficiently.
• Environmental Protection: Specialized NEMA 4X enclosure protects internal components from splashing water and corrosive agents.
• Versatile Media Compatibility: Optimized for air, water, and light oil, offering flexibility across different industrial sectors.
• Durable Construction: The brass body and NBR (Buna-N) seals provide excellent chemical resistance and mechanical strength.
• Reliable Operation: The pilot-operated diaphragm design ensures consistent opening and closing under standard pressure differentials.

Common Questions:

What is the difference between a direct-acting and a pilot-operated valve like the 8210G8?
A pilot-operated solenoid valve uses the pressure of the fluid itself to assist in opening and closing the valve, whereas direct-acting valves rely solely on the solenoid's magnetic force. This allows the ASCO 8210G8 to handle much higher flow rates (15 Cv) and larger pipe sizes (1-1/4") efficiently.

Can this valve be mounted in any orientation?
While many ASCO valves can be mounted in various positions, it is highly recommended to mount the 8210G8 with the solenoid vertical and upright to prevent debris from settling in the core tube area, ensuring optimal lifecycle performance.

Is the NEMA 4X rating suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, the NEMA 4X rating indicates that the enclosure is watertight, dust-tight, and corrosion-resistant, making it suitable for indoor and outdoor environments where exposure to moisture or chemicals is likely.
