Product Overview

ASCO 551-553 solenoid Valves

ASCO 551-553 Exd Flameproof Valves are single/dual solenoid valves, which are pilot operated, have an aluminium body and are 1/4 and 1/2 tapped.

The monostable spool valves are manufactured and certified for hazardous area use according to IEC 61508 Standard (2010 route 2H version) and are TÜV (551 series) and EXIDA (551-553 series) certified with integrity levels: SIL 2 for HFT = 0 / SIL 3 for HFT = 1.

features

  • The 5/2 and 5/3 spool solenoid valves have threaded port connections
  • In order to provide better environmental protection against the ingress of liquids, dusts and other foreign matter, all of the exhaust ports are connectable. This is particularly recommended for sensitive areas, such as clean rooms, and applications within the pharmaceutical and food processing sectors
  • The Ex d flameproof solenoid valves can be externally piloted via an external air pilot supply, in order to convert the valve to zero minimum operation by flipping a gasket
  • The solenoid valves can be mounted in any position without affecting operation
  • Ex mb/mD (prefix “PV”) solenoid can be supplied with various lengths of cable
  • Other pipe threads are available on request

Explosion Proof Valve Operators – ASCO Solenoid Valves & Valve Operators are ATEX & IECEx certified for Class I, Division 2 and Zone 1 & Zone 2 hazardous areas.
