Description

1/4" 3/2 Universal 316 Stainless Solenoid Valve – VXS

The VXS Series is a compact 3/2 way universal direct-acting solenoid valve manufactured from 316 stainless steel for enhanced corrosion resistance in demanding fluid, pneumatic and process applications.

Its universal 3-port design allows the same valve to be configured for normally closed, normally open or diverting operation, reducing the number of different valves required for machinery, maintenance stock and OEM installations.

Direct acting from zero differential pressure and suitable for pressure or vacuum service, the VXS Series is ideal for compressed air, water, light oils and compatible gases and fluids where brass may not provide sufficient corrosion resistance.

Valve Function & Operation

Function: 3/2 way universal solenoid valve

Configurations: Normally Closed (NC), Normally Open (NO) or Diverting

Operation: Direct acting

Minimum differential pressure: 0 Bar

The universal 3-port arrangement allows the same valve to be connected for normally closed, normally open or diverting service by selecting the appropriate inlet, outlet and exhaust/diverting ports.

Port size: 1/4" BSP

Optional thread: 1/4" NPT

Orifice options:

1.6mm – VXS3*21

2.2mm – VXS3*22

Cv flow factor:

1.6mm orifice – Cv 0.09

2.2mm orifice – Cv 0.16

Kv flow factor:

Universal 3/2 Way Operation

The VXS Series provides three different control functions from one universal 3-port valve body.

Normally Closed → Flow opens when energised

Normally Open → Flow closes when energised

Diverting → Flow switches between two flow paths

This universal arrangement helps reduce the number of valve types required for OEM machinery, maintenance stock and replacement applications.

Typical Applications

Chemical and process systems

Corrosive industrial environments

Pneumatic control systems

Air and fluid switching

Vacuum control systems

Diverting and selector circuits

Water treatment equipment

OEM machinery

Packaging equipment
