Description

M5, 1/8 & 1/4 Inch Brass Latching Solenoid Valve – Sunwell BL Series


The Sunwell BL Series is a compact range of brass latching (bi-stable) solenoid valves designed for reliable control of air, water, vacuum, light oils and compatible gases. Unlike conventional solenoid valves that require continuous power, the BL Series changes position using a short electrical pulse and remains latched until the opposite pulse is applied, significantly reducing energy consumption and heat generation.

Available with M5, 1/8 inch and 1/4 inch threaded connections, the BL Series combines direct acting zero-pressure operation with compact dimensions, making it ideal for battery-powered equipment, portable instruments, analytical equipment and OEM machinery.

Manufactured from a brass body with stainless steel internal components, the BL Series is available with a wide range of seal materials for standard, chemical and vacuum applications. Optional mounting plates simplify installation where panel or machine mounting is required.

Hi Arron Thank you so much The help you have provided and previously is very much appreciated Great service !! Please forward on to your Boss. Kind Regards, Paul. Hi Arron I hope you are well. You kindly ordered some 6v solenoids for me last year and I am hoping you could do the same for me. I have provided photo’s of the valves you ordered and also correspondence of the order in the attachments above. You managed to keep the cost down if I ordered a batch of 50, so happy to do the same if needed. If you could provide a price for 50 of the same, ¼ inch, 6v dc solenoids, It would be much appreciated. I have copied my manager into the email, so he is aware of the order. Have a pleasant weekend Regards, Paul.
