The Asco EF8030G064 Solenoid Valve (EF8030G64) is an explosionproof, normally closed valve built for low-pressure shutoff in hazardous locations. Its stainless steel body and zero-pressure differential design ensure reliable control of air, water, or inert gases—even in vacuum or open-line conditions.
