ASCO 8345H3 Valve

The ASCO 8345H3 Valve is a professional-grade 4-way solenoid valve engineered for precision in general service and industrial automation. Featuring a rugged brass body and high-performance NBR seals, this air pilot-operated valve is specifically designed for valve and piston actuation. It operates reliably on a 120V AC power supply, managing pressure ranges from 10-150 PSI for air and up to 125 PSI for water and oil. The 1/4" NPT connection ensures a secure, leak-free fit within complex pneumatic systems. Built to withstand demanding conditions, it comes standard with a NEMA 4X enclosure, providing superior protection against corrosion, dust, and water ingress. Whether you are managing fluid control or heavy-duty machinery, the ASCO 8345H3 delivers the durability and rapid response times required for modern HVACR and industrial applications.

Key Benefits:

• Enhanced Durability: The corrosion-resistant brass construction and NEMA 4X rating ensure long-term operation in harsh environments.
• Versatile Application: Optimized for air, water, and light oil, making it an ideal choice for multi-media fluid control.
• Reliable Actuation: The air pilot-operated mechanism allows for smooth and efficient piston and valve control.
• Standardized Installation: Features a universal 1/4" NPT port for easy integration into existing pipe networks.

Common Questions:

What is the difference between a 4-way solenoid valve and a 3-way valve?
A 4-way valve, like the ASCO 8345H3, typically features four or five ports and is used to drive double-acting actuators, whereas a 3-way valve is generally used for single-acting cylinders.

Can the ASCO 8345H3 be used outdoors?
Yes, the NEMA 4X enclosure is designed to provide protection against falling dirt, rain, sleet, snow, and even hose-directed water, as well as corrosion.

Is this valve suitable for high-temperature fluid control?
This model uses Buna N (NBR) seals, which are excellent for general service. For extreme temperature requirements, please verify the specific fluid temperature range against the technical datasheet.
