The Asco 8220G009 Solenoid Valve is a pilot-operated, normally closed valve suitable for high flow and long service life in harsh thermal environments. With an EPDM/PTFE disc and a watertight RedHat II enclosure, it delivers stable performance under high-pressure steam and hot water conditions. Once opened at higher pressure, the valve will remain open to 3 psi at the inlet.
