ASCO EV 8314 Ex Proof ATEX Solenoid Valve (Explosion Proof Encapsulated Coils)
ASCO EV 8314 Explosion Proof Encapsulated Coils
ASCO EV 8314 explosion proof encapsulated coils are part of the hazardous area solenoid valve range suitable for use in ATEX Zone 1 and Zone 2 hazardous area applications.
The molded one piece ASCO valve features a highly efficient solenoid cartridge with a special low wattage coil and has increased ambient temperature capabilities up to 80°C.
Designed for use in the automation of plant controls, the ASCO EV 8314 provides:
- PLC compatibility
- Reduced battery drain
- Reduced heat rise
- Reduced wiring cost
- SIL 3 capable valves
The wide selection of solenoid valves includes 2/2 Normally Closed, 3/2 Normally Closed (including Quick Exhaust), 3/2 Universal and 4/2 with Single or Dual Solenoid – aluminium, brass and stainless steel valve options.
The nominal ambient working temperature ranges for the ASCO EV 8314 hazardous area solenoid valve are -40˚C to 80˚C (-40˚F to 175˚F).
ASCO EV 8314 solenoid valve is intended for use with clean, dry air or inert gas that has been filtered to 50 micrometers or better. In order to prevent freezing, the dew point should be -8°C below the minimum temperature to which any portion of the clean air or gas system could be exposed.
