The Pneumax ECO22 series 8880 are solenoid valves designed for compressed air and various pneumatic applications. Here's a breakdown of their key features:
General characteristics:
- Compact design: These valves are known for their space-saving design.
- Aluminium body: The body is constructed with lightweight and durable aluminium.
- Port size: They come with 1/8" BSP (British Standard Pipe) threaded ports.
- Solenoid operator: The valves are actuated by a built-in solenoid operator, which includes a manual override for direct control.
- Voltage options: The solenoids can be powered by various DC and AC voltages (refer to datasheet for specifics).
- Versatility: They are available in three configurations:
- 3/2: This is a 2-position, 3-port valve commonly used for simple on/off applications.
- 5/2: This is a 2-position, 5-port valve offering more complex flow control options.
- 5/3: This is a 3-position, 5-port valve providing even greater flow control possibilities (exhaust centre or pressurised centre).
Additional points to consider:
- Flow rate: The specific flow rate will depend on the valve configuration and pressure drop (refer to datasheet for details).
- Coil and cable plugs: These are typically sold separately. You'll need one coil and cable plug for single solenoid with spring return versions, and two for double solenoid versions.
- Durability: With filtered and lubricated air, these valves can reach an average lifespan of 15 million cycles.
