The Asco 8220G027 Solenoid Valve (8220G27) is a pilot-operated, normally closed valve engineered for high-demand thermal systems. It features an EPDM/PTFE sealing disc and a heat-resistant Class H coil for durability in steam and hot water service. Once opened at higher pressure, the valve will remain open to 3 psi at the inlet.
