The ASCO ISB314C300 is a direct - acting solenoid valve belonging to the 314 Series (also part of the 8314 Series). Designed for precision fluid control, it is optimized for low - pressure applications with air, water, oil, or inert gases. This series is renowned for its compact design, reliability, and cost - effectiveness in general industrial and commercial systems.
Key Features
Design & Construction
Body Material: Durable brass (ISB314C300) for corrosion resistance in non - aggressive media.
Direct - Acting Mechanism: No pilot pressure required, making it suitable for low - pressure or vacuum systems (down to 0 psi).
Normally Closed (NC) Configuration: Default state closes the valve until energized.
Functional Specifications
Port Size: 1/4" NPT (standard for the ISB314C300) for moderate flow rates.
Coil Options: Universal voltage coils (AC/DC) with surge suppression; common voltages include 24V DC, 120V AC, 240V AC.
Seal Materials: Buna - N (NBR) for standard media; Viton® available for high - temperature or aggressive fluids (model variants).
Performance
Pressure Range: 0 - 125 psi (0 - 8.6 bar) for air/gas; slightly lower for liquids (e.g., water: 0 - 100 psi).
Temperature Range: - 20°C to 80°C (standard); extended ranges with special seals.
Flow Capacity (Cv): ~0.8 (suitable for low to medium flow applications).
Certifications
CE compliant; UL and CSA approvals available for specific models.
Applications
HVAC/R: Control of water, air, or refrigerant in heating, cooling, and ventilation systems.
Industrial Machinery: Pneumatic tools, small - scale automation, and packaging equipment.
Commercial Equipment: Beverage dispensers, vending machines, and medical devices.
Water Treatment: Low - pressure dosing systems or filtration controls.
