Description
3/4" 100 Bar Normally Open Stainless Steel Solenoid Valve – ERA-SIB 220250-0 Series
The ERA-SIB 220250-0 to 220255-0 Series is a heavy-duty 3/4" 2/2 way normally open high-pressure stainless steel solenoid valve designed for industrial applications requiring reliable fail-safe open operation at pressures up to 100 Bar.
The valve uses a pressure-assisted piston design with a large 20mm orifice, providing substantially higher flow than small-orifice direct-acting high-pressure valves. With electrical power removed, the valve automatically returns to its normally open position, making it particularly suitable where the required system fail position is open.
Manufactured from AISI 316L stainless steel with stainless steel internal components, the series provides excellent corrosion resistance for demanding water, compressed air, light oil, gas and compatible process applications. NBR, EPDM, FKM / Viton® and PTFE seal configurations are available, together with optional NPT threads, manual override and ATEX explosion-protected operation.
Valve Function & Operation
Function: 2/2 way normally open
Operation: Pressure-assisted piston
Fail-safe position: Open
Electrical operation: Power to close
Operating pressure: 1 to 100 Bar
The ERA-SIB 220250-0 Series remains open when the solenoid is de-energised. Applying electrical power closes the valve against the process flow.
If electrical power is removed or lost, the valve automatically returns to its normally open position.
This makes the series particularly useful where maintaining flow or releasing pressure following a power failure forms part of the required system design.
Pressure-Assisted Piston Design
The valve uses a pressure-assisted piston mechanism rather than direct-acting operation.
System pressure assists movement of the main 20mm valve element, allowing a much larger flow orifice to be controlled at pressures up to 100 Bar.
Operating pressure:
1 to 100 Bar
The valve therefore requires at least 1 Bar operating pressure for correct operation and is not a zero-pressure differential valve.
For applications that must operate from zero pressure, a suitable direct-acting valve should be selected instead.
Ports & Connections
Port size: 3/4" BSP
Optional connection: NPT
Orifice: 20mm
Water flow: 93 L/min at 1 Bar pressure difference
The large 20mm orifice provides useful flow capacity for high-pressure water, air, gas and compatible process applications.
The stated 93 L/min figure is based on water with a 1 Bar pressure drop and is therefore described as water flow rather than conventional Kv in m³/h.
Pressure & Performance
Operating pressure: 1 to 100 Bar
Minimum operating pressure: 1 Bar
Maximum operating pressure: 100 Bar
Orifice: 20mm
Water flow: 93 L/min at 1 Bar ΔP
Opening time: 200ms maximum
Closing time: 200ms maximum
Maximum media viscosity: 40 cSt
The combination of 100 Bar pressure capability and a 20mm orifice makes the 220250-0 Series particularly useful where substantially more flow is required than can normally be achieved through a compact direct-acting high-pressure solenoid valve.
Construction & Materials
Body: AISI 316L stainless steel
Internal components: Stainless steel
Seal options:
NBR
EPDM
FKM / Viton®
PTFE
The AISI 316L stainless steel construction provides excellent corrosion resistance and mechanical durability for demanding industrial and process environments.
Seal & Media Compatibility
Different sealing materials can be selected according to the media and operating conditions.
NBR: Suitable for compressed air, water, mineral oils and compatible neutral media
EPDM: Suitable for water and many compatible aqueous media
FKM / Viton®: Suitable for many oils, fuels and compatible process fluids
PTFE: Available for specialist chemical and process applications where compatible
The correct seal should always be selected according to the actual fluid, temperature, pressure and process conditions.
Suitable Media
Depending upon seal selection, suitable applications can include:
✓ Compressed Air
✓ Water
✓ Light Oils
✓ Compatible Gases
✓ Compatible Process Fluids
Maximum media viscosity: 40 cSt
For aggressive chemicals, specialist gases or unusual process fluids, compatibility should be confirmed against the 316L stainless steel construction and selected seal material before ordering.
Temperature Range
Maximum media temperature:
NBR: +60°C
EPDM: +100°C
FKM / Viton®: +100°C
PTFE: +100°C
Ambient temperature: -10°C to +50°C
The actual maximum operating temperature is determined by the selected sealing material, media and complete valve configuration.

Normally Open Fail-Safe Operation
A major advantage of the ERA-SIB 220250-0 Series is its normally open fail-safe configuration.
Power OFF → Valve OPEN
Power ON → Valve CLOSED
Power failure → Valve returns OPEN
This operating principle can be particularly useful for cooling circuits, circulation systems, pressure management and other applications where maintaining an open flow path following loss of electrical power is required.
The suitability of a fail-open valve should always be determined by the safety requirements of the individual system.
Installation & Mounting
Recommended installation:
Vertical with the solenoid coil uppermost
Correct mounting helps ensure reliable movement of the pressure-assisted piston mechanism.
The system must provide the required minimum 1 Bar operating pressure for correct valve operation.
Pipework should be clean before installation, and contamination should be prevented from entering the valve.
Manual Override Option
An optional manual override is available.
This can allow the valve to be mechanically operated during commissioning, testing or maintenance without relying solely upon electrical operation.
ATEX Hazardous Area Option
An optional ATEX explosion-protected solenoid operator is available for hazardous-area installations.
This provides an alternative electrical configuration for applications where explosive gas or dust atmospheres may be present.
The exact ATEX / Ex specification should be selected according to the required hazardous-area classification, ambient temperature, process media and operating conditions.

High-Flow 100 Bar Design
Controlling high-pressure media with a large solenoid valve orifice presents a significant challenge because the forces acting against the valve seat increase considerably as pressure and orifice diameter increase.
The ERA-SIB 220250-0 Series addresses this by using a pressure-assisted piston design.
Rather than requiring the solenoid alone to overcome the full pressure force acting across a 20mm seat, system pressure assists operation of the main valve mechanism.
The result is a useful combination of a 20mm orifice, 93 L/min water flow and pressures up to 100 Bar in a solenoid-operated valve.
Why Choose the ERA-SIB 220250-0 Series?
The ERA-SIB 220250-0 to 220255-0 Series is designed for applications requiring three important characteristics in the same valve:
High pressure capability
High flow capacity
Normally open fail-safe operation
Its 20mm orifice provides considerably greater flow than small-orifice direct-acting high-pressure valves, while the pressure-assisted piston design enables operation at pressures up to 100 Bar.
AISI 316L stainless steel construction, multiple seal options, AC and DC voltages, optional NPT threads, manual override and ATEX configurations provide additional flexibility for demanding industrial installations.
