The Asco 8262G208 Solenoid Valve is a direct-acting, normally closed valve for high flow rates in compact fluid handling systems. Its poppet design ensures tight shutoff, while the larger Cv rating enables efficient media transfer across air, water, and oil circuits. It is built for general-purpose use and offers reliable operation in OEM skids, process panels, and moderate-pressure isolation duties.
