Ross Controls 8476C3342 Pilot Valve

The Ross Controls 8476C3342 Pilot Valve is a double-solenoid, base-mounted directional valve in the SAE 84 Series—a 5-way, 2-position unit whose main spool is shifted by pilot signals from two electric coils for reliable, positive control in automated pneumatic circuits. Designed for compact installation, this model uses 24 VDC coil power and supports an operating pressure range of 2–10 bar, making it suitable for pilot-controlled actuation where upstream pressure is modest. As part of the 84 Series, the 8476C3342 is offered in multiple electrical configurations (the family includes 8476C3312, 8476C3322, 8476C3332, 8476C3342, and 8476C3352) to accommodate different control interfaces, while maintaining base mounting and detented operation for secure hold in each valve position. In typical OEM and automation setups, the valve routes compressed air among five ports—one inlet, two work ports, and two exhausts—allowing it to pilot other valves or directly actuate small cylinders and actuators. This model is designed for reliability in manufacturing environments, with robust base-mounted construction that simplifies manifold integration and serviceability in compact valve islands.
