4 Way Solenoid Valves 8344 Series

The solenoid is an electromagnetic part of a valve, comprised of a coil, coretube, core and enclosure. ASCO Redhat brand offers the worlds largest selection of 2-, 3- and 4-way solenoid valves, designed to handle the most demanding fluid control applications.
Common Specifications
Solenoid Enclosures Standard Enclosures Optional Enclosures Electrical
Valves listed in this series have Red-Hat II molded epoxy solenoids. Red-Hat II valves are identified by the change letter "G" in their catalog numbers, e.g., 8344G70, and are shown in red.
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)

Minimum coil on-time for dual solenoid valves is 0.3 second on air service and 1.0 second on liquids.
Caution: Do not energize both solenoids simultaneously.
Important: We must have catalog number, voltage and Hertz, operating pressure and fluid handled. Use strainers with Solenoid Valves.

Notes: 1 - 25 psi minimum on Light Oil Service.
2 - For best results, do not use valve rated 250 psi on mainline pressure of less than 125 psi.
3 - On 50 Hertz service, the watt rating for the 6.1/F solenoid is 8.1 watts.
