The Asco 8030G070 Solenoid Valve (8030G70) is a normally open, direct-acting valve built for low-pressure air and water service. With zero minimum pressure required and a full 15 psi rating, it’s an excellent choice for general-purpose venting, pressure release, or controlled flow systems that remain open when de-energized.
