The Asco 8215C063 Solenoid Valve (8215C63) is a direct-acting, normally open, 2-way valve optimized for high-capacity air-fuel gas flow in low-pressure systems. With its large Cv rating and ability to open with zero pressure differential, it excels in combustion safety loops, purge lines, and systems requiring uninterrupted flow until energized shutoff.
