| Common Specifications | |||
| Solenoid Enclosures | Standard Enclosures | Optional Enclosures for Catalog Numbers 8340G1 and 8340G2 only | Electrical | Valves listed in this series have either Red-Hat metal solenoid enclosures or Red-Hat II molded epoxy solenoids. Red-Hat II valves are identified by the change letter "G" in their catalog numbers, e.g., 8340G1. | Red-Hat -- Type 1 General Purpose Red-Hat II -- Types 1, 2, 3, 3S, 4 and 4X Combination General Purpose and Watertight |
Red-Hat II -- Types 3, 3S, 4, 4X, 6, 6P, 7 and 9 Combination Explosion proof and Watertight. To order, add prefix "EF" to catalog number. Additional constructions are available. The Optional Features Section contains descriptions and ordering information for: Open Frame Solenoids · Junction Box Enclosures · Panel Mount Constructions. |
Standard Voltages: 24, 120, 240, 480 volts, AC, 60 Hz(or 110, 220 volts, AC, 50 Hz) 6, 12, 24, 120, 240 volts, DC Other voltages are available Coil:Continuous duty molded Class F. |
| Nominal Ambient Temperature Ranges | Valve Parts in Contact with Fluids | Approvals | Ordering Information |
| AC Construction: 32°F to 125°F. DC Construction: 32°F to 77°F (104°F occasionally). |
Body-- Hard Anodized Aluminum Disc -- Polyethylene Core Tube -- 305 s.s. Core and Plug nut -- 430F s.s. Core Spring -- 302 s.s. Shading Coil -- Copper Seals -- Buna "N" Miscellaneous -- Nylon, Acetal |
CSA certified. AC only is UL listed as a General Purpose Valve. |
Important: We must have catalog number, voltage and Hertz,
operating pressure and fluid handled. Use strainers with Solenoid Valves. |

| Sub-base Mounted: can be supplied individually or group mounted by inserting tie rods through holes in the sub-base. Up to 8 units, in any combination of single and dual solenoid constructions, can be grouped. Sub-bases have separate cylinder connections, and common pressure and exhaust connections at each end. Do-it-yourself assemblies can be made in the field. Group Mounted: Up to 8 units can be factory assembled or grouped by strong snap-on clamps which are part of a do-it-yourself field assembly kit supplied with each valve. Valves have common pressure connection at each end, and separate cylinder and exhaust connections. |
Solenoid may be energized momentarily (½ second) or energized continuously. Caution: Do not energize both solenoids simultaneously. | ||
