ASCO 345 Solenoid Valves – Intrinsically Safe Low Flow 4 Way Solenoid Valve

ASCO 345 solenoid valves. T&D are an ASCO Numatics Authorised Distribution Channel.

ASCO 345 solenoid valves are part of the ASCO Red Hat range of valves.

ASCO 345 solenoid valves are compact valves for general purpose applications and are low cost 4 way valves for when low flow is sufficient.

Mountable in any position, the ASCO 345 solenoid valves are available in intrinsically safe, voltage ranging and long life constructions.

The low power operation valves feature a built-in surge suppression and an elimination of AC Hum.

Other key features of the ASCO 345 solenoid valves include:

Voltage ranging Low solenoid temperature rise
Longer coil life due to lower operating temperatures and electrical surge suppression
Solenoid approvals to UL, CSA, and CE directives
Available with Class I, Division 2 coils (EE prefix

ASCO SOLENOID VALVES – HAZARDOUS AREA LOCATIONS, safety & standards

ASCO solenoid valves (2-way, 3-way and 4-way type including NAMUR interfaces) control the critical flow of air, gas, water, oil and steam across all industries – hazardous area solenoid valves are available for Division and Zone classifications.

Class I, Division 2 and Zone 1/Zone 2 approved solenoid valves according to ATEX, IECEx, FM, CSA and UL are available. Flameproof and explosion-proof valves can be specified for potentially explosive atmospheres where there is a presence of flammable liquids, gases or vapours.

ASCO valves improve reliability and performance of safety systems according to IEC 61508, IEC 61511 and Safety Integrity Levels (SIL) – ASCO spool valves with SIL 4 capability are SAEL listed as assessed by Exida and TÜV.
