The Asco 8263205LT Solenoid Valve is a normally closed, 2-way solenoid valve designed for cryogenic service, including liquid CO₂, nitrogen, oxygen, and argon. Built with a nickel-plated brass body and PTFE/urethane seals, it provides clean, reliable shutoff in ultra-low temperature environments. This model is commonly used in cryogenic injection, gas transfer systems, and cold storage equipment.
