The Asco 8300D61U Solenoid Valve is a direct-acting, universal 3-way valve designed for flexible operation across multiple flow configurations. Its 1/4″ port and 0–120 psi working range enable reliable pneumatic or light fluid circuit actuation. This model is often found in utility manifolds, diagnostic machines, and compact automation cells.
