551-553 namur 3/2 nc & 5/2

ASCO 551-553 Series explosion proof solenoid valves are NAMUR Style 1/4 and 1/2 tapped, stainless steel bodied, pilot operated, spool type, single/dual solenoid valves.

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

These solenoid valves are supplied with ASCO EM or WSEM Increased Safety & Encapsulated valve operators.

eX E MB INCREASED SAFETY ENCAPSULATED solenoid Valves

features

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 e mb 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 satisfy all relevant EU directives
