The Asco 8030G017VM Solenoid Valve (8030G17) is a direct-acting, normally closed valve tailored for vacuum service up to 10⁻³ Torr. With zero pressure differential and a 16.1-watt Class F coil, it handles clean shutoff in systems requiring reliable vacuum control. Suitable for electrical check, breaker, roughing, suction, or release in pump forelines, lab setups, and vacuum tools.
