Festo Pneumatic Solenoid Valve -, 1491845

This Festo solenoid valve regulates the movement of fluids to keep your equipment operating efficiently. It's an NC (normally closed) valve, which has a direct-acting mechanism that means it switches quickly to an open state. The flexible mechanical spring-return means it returns swiftly to its original position after operation. This allows the valve to work continuously without manual intervention. Use this solenoid valve in your automated production processes to improve performance.
