ASCO 8316G26 Solenoid Valve Direct Acting 2-Way 120V AC

ASCO 8316G26 is a 3-way, normally open solenoid valve with a brass body and 1/2" NPT ports, designed to switch a supply line between two paths or to vent one path in compact pneumatic and fluid systems. It is a pilot-operated valve that uses a diaphragm poppet mechanism to control media such as air, inert gas, and water, delivering reliable shut-off in continuous service. The valve belongs to ASCO's Red Hat II family, featuring molded epoxy solenoids for durability; standard configurations use a 120 VAC, 60 Hz coil, with regional variants offered for 110 VAC, 50 Hz. Buna-N seals and brass construction provide compatibility with dry gases and non-corrosive liquids typically encountered in industrial environments. With its three ports—one inlet and two outlets/exhaust paths—the 8316G26 is well suited for pneumatic control panels, small automation manifolds, and beverage or water-handling lines where a compact, dependable 3-way valve is needed.
