ASCO 8320G174V Solenoid Valve

ASCO 8320G174V is a general-service, three-way, direct-acting solenoid valve in the 8320 family, engineered for compact automation tasks. It uses 1/4-inch NPT ports with a brass body and NPT end style, suitable for small-diameter piping in tight installations. The valve is rated for a maximum pressure of 100 psi and is compatible with air, water, and light oil media. The 8320G174V designation denotes the 24 V DC coil variant, with a coil power around 17.1 watts in 60 Hz service, and it features a 3/32-inch orifice opening with a Cv of about 0.25 (Kv ≈ 0.21), enabling moderate flow for standard line sizes. Its three-way configuration supports diverting flow or isolating branches within a single compact unit, a common choice for pneumatic and fluid control in machinery where space is at a premium.
