Parker 12FS5C2448ACH Valve

For industrial steam and boiler feed applications, the Parker 12FS5C2448ACH stands as a professional-grade 3/4 inch NPT steam solenoid valve. As part of the Gold Ring Series S5, this 2-way normally closed valve is engineered specifically for high-frequency cycling in harsh environments like autoclaves, laundry equipment, and sterilization units. The forged brass body and PTFE seals provide the necessary chemical and thermal resistance to handle saturated steam up to 125 PSI and temperatures reaching 353°F.

This unit features a pivoted edge diaphragm design which offers superior debris tolerance compared to standard floating diaphragms, minimizing clogs in systems with scale or sediment. The NEMA 4/4X electrical enclosure ensures moisture protection, while the Class H coil is rated for continuous duty in high-ambient conditions. With a 7.4 Cv flow coefficient, it provides high-capacity throughput with minimal pressure drop. This is a reliable solenoid valve for steam service that contractors depend on for consistent 120V pilot-operated performance.

• Steam Rated Durability: Rated for 1-125 PSI saturated steam and hot water applications up to 353°F.
• Debris-Tolerant Design: Pivoted edge diaphragm construction reduces the risk of sticking due to system contaminants.
• Rugged Construction: Forged brass vessel paired with PTFE (Teflon) seating for maximum seal integrity.
• Standardized Fit: 3/4" FNPT ports allow for seamless integration into existing commercial steam valve headers.
• Electrical Protection: 11W Class H coil is encapsulated to withstand high heat and humidity.

What is the minimum pressure required for this valve to operate?
This is a pilot-assisted valve and requires a minimum differential pressure of 1 PSI to reliably open and close the diaphragm.

Can this valve be used for hot water service?
Yes, it is dual-rated for both saturated steam and hot water, though the maximum pressure rating for hot water may differ from the 125 PSI steam rating.

Is the coil included with the 12FS5C2448ACH?
While the base part number refers to the pressure vessel, this specific technical configuration typically utilizes a 120V/60Hz Class H coil with 18-inch leads.
