ASCO EF8342G1 Solenoid Valve

ASCO EF8342G1 is a general‑service solenoid valve designed for fast, reliable on/off control of compressed air and inert gases through a 1/4-inch pipe port, with a maximum working pressure of 100 psi. This model sits in ASCO’s 8342 family and employs a direct‑acting, high‑flow slide‑style design with a Cv of about 0.7, enabling solid throughput at modest coil power. The coil on this configuration draws 20.1 watts and is identified as WL3‑2, delivering dependable actuation while keeping heat generation minimal in compact installations. Suitable for automated pneumatic and process‑control applications, the EF8342G1 is commonly used in general automation lines, burner and gas‑air control scenarios, and other space‑constrained control points in manufacturing environments. Its construction supports mounting in a variety of orientations and is compatible with standard ASCO fittings and manifolds, offering versatile integration in compact control circuits.
