The Asco 8262G212 Solenoid Valve is a direct-acting, normally closed valve engineered for high-volume fluid shutoff in compressed air, water, and oil service. Its high Cv in a 1/4″ body enables rapid transfer in low-pressure systems, while the elevated watt rating supports demanding duty cycles in test stands, fuel panels, and high-response OEM fluid loops.
