ALCO Controls 202CB1-8B5-32V Solenoid Valve

The ALCO Controls 202CB1-8B5-32V solenoid valve is a direct-acting, two-way, normally closed valve designed for reliable control of small-diameter fluid lines. It features a 1/8 in. NPT port, a maximum working pressure of 100 psi, and a coil rated for 208/240 VAC at 50/60 Hz, drawing 12 W at 50 Hz or 17 W at 60 Hz. This valve is suitable for air, water, and steam service, making it a common choice in pneumatic circuits, light-process lines, and instrumentation setups where tight shut-off in a compact package is needed. The 202CB family is known for its compact, robust construction and direct-acting operation that does not require a pilot valve. Note that this variant is listed as discontinued by the manufacturer, but remains present in catalogs and available from distributors as a legacy spare.
