The Asco 8263G209LT Solenoid Valve is a direct-acting, normally closed, 2-way valve designed for cryogenic media. It effectively handles liquefied gases like nitrogen, oxygen, and argon at temperatures as low as -320°F. Its moisture-free, degreased internals and black light testing ensure hydrocarbon-free assurance.
