Description
SHAKO Solenoid Valve Manifolds – MF520, MFB520 & SF520
Genuine SHAKO pneumatic solenoid valve manifolds for mounting multiple compatible 5/2 and 5/3 way solenoid valves onto a common compressed-air supply and exhaust system.
Available from 2 to 10 stations, the manifold provides a compact and convenient method of installing multiple directional control valves while reducing individual pipework, fittings and installation space.
Choose the manifold series, port size and required number of valve stations according to the SHAKO solenoid valve series being used.
Supplied as the manifold only, complete with valve mounting gaskets and fixing screws. Solenoid valves are ordered separately.

Common Air Supply & Exhaust
The manifold provides common pneumatic supply and exhaust galleries for the installed directional control valves.
This reduces the number of individual air connections required compared with separately mounted solenoid valves and provides a much neater installation for machinery and automation systems.
Individual valve working ports remain available for connection to the pneumatic cylinders or actuators being controlled.
Supplied Complete With Mounting Parts
Each manifold is supplied ready for installation of the appropriate compatible valve and includes:
✓ Manifold base
✓ Valve mounting gaskets
✓ Valve fixing screws
Solenoid valves and coils are not included unless specifically selected or stated.
Thread Options
Standard thread: BSP (G)
Optional threads on applicable MF520 versions:
✓ NPT
✓ Rc
The SHAKO MF520 ordering system identifies blank as G thread, N as NPT and R as Rc.
Typical Applications
✓ Pneumatic automation systems
✓ Multiple cylinder control
✓ Machine building
✓ Packaging machinery
✓ Production equipment
✓ Process automation
✓ OEM pneumatic systems
✓ Control cabinets
✓ Compact valve banks
✓ Industrial air control
Why Use a Solenoid Valve Manifold?
A pneumatic manifold allows several directional solenoid valves to share common supply and exhaust connections.
Compared with individually piped valves, this can provide:
✓ Reduced pneumatic pipework
✓ Fewer fittings and connections
✓ Compact valve installation
✓ Easier valve replacement
✓ Cleaner machine layout
✓ Centralised pneumatic control
✓ Easier system expansion
Important Compatibility Note
MF520, MFB520 and SF520 manifolds are not universally interchangeable.
Select the manifold according to the specific SHAKO valve series, valve size and port configuration listed above.
If replacing an existing manifold, check the manifold and valve model numbers before ordering.
