344 Series 0.55 W Low Power, 4-Way, Dual Solenoid Valve
The ASCO Series 344, also known as 8344, 4-way solenoid valves
incorporate a piston-operated poppet design for high flow in a variety
of applications. Their sturdy, robust construction can be used with air
or water media. The 344 Series is suitable for use in analytical and
diagnostic instruments, biofuels, heating equipment, life science
production, and refining.
Features
- Molded one-piece solenoid with highly efficient solenoid cartridge and special low wattage coil
- Increased ambient temperature capabilities up to 175°F (80°C)
- Designed for use in automation of plant control systems to provide:
- PLC compatibility
- Reduced battery drain
- Reduced heat rise
- Reduced wiring cost
- Wide selection includes 2/2 normally closed, 3/2 normally closed (including Quick Exhaust), 3/2 universal, 4/2, 5/2, & 5/3
- Air or inert gas only
- Lower-cost alternative to intrinsically safe valves in critical applications not requiring a safety barrier
