ASCO NTQ8316G003 Solenoid Valve 3/8 Inch NPT 250VDC

ASCO NTQ8316G003 is a high‑flow, 3‑way solenoid valve from the ASCO 8316 family, designed to pilot large actuators and provide fast, reliable shutoff in compressed‑air and inert‑gas lines. It uses a 3/8" NPT brass body with Buna‑N seals, and is fitted with the Red Hat II epoxy‑coated solenoid (single coil) identified by the G003 catalog designation, a hallmark of ASCO’s rugged, general‑purpose line. In most installations it is configured as normally closed in a 3‑way arrangement to control pilot and exhaust paths in automation loops; the valve is intended for air systems with working pressures up to about 150 psi and ambient temperatures compatible with standard industrial environments (AC variants ~32°F to 125°F, DC variants ~32°F to 104°F). The Red Hat II design delivers dependable actuation and fast response, enabling it to start or stop air and inert gas flow to actuators or to pilot larger process valves in robotics and manufacturing applications.
