Asco 8222G003 Solenoid Valve 8222G3
Asco 8222G003 Solenoid Valve 8222G3

The Asco 8222G003 Solenoid Valve (8222G3) is a pilot-operated, normally closed valve designed for high-pressure steam systems with elevated thermal demands. It opens from 0 psi and supports up to 125 psi at 353°F, making it suitable for sealed, high-temperature environments requiring consistent valve response under load.
