ASCO 8030G17VM Solenoid Valve

ASCO 8030G17VM is a 1/2-inch, two-way, normally closed solenoid valve designed for low-pressure and vacuum service. It belongs to ASCO’s Series 8030, a direct-acting (direct lift) valve family optimized for compact installations and reliable shutoff at small differential pressures. The VM variant denotes vacuum-capable operation, making this model well suited for controlled flow in vacuum lines and low-pressure circuits with a differential range of 0–13 psi and a flow coefficient (Cv) of about 2.8, enabling efficient passage at minimal pressure. Coil power for this configuration is rated around 16.1 watts, with catalog entries listing 302790-VM as the identifying model, and many installations run on 120 V alternating current (60 Hz). The valve’s 1/2-inch body/ports and normally closed configuration provide tight shutoff when de-energized, supporting precise actuation in automated systems. Typical applications span industrial automation, process control, pneumatic and vacuum systems, and fluid-handling environments where reliable, space-saving control is required, including packaging, HVAC, and materials-handling equipment. This ASCO solenoid valve is built for durability in demanding settings, delivering quick actuation and dependable service in low-pressure or vacuum-duty duties where accurate on/off control is essential.
