8262/8263 Series two-way direct-acting solenoid valves
8262/8263 Series two-way direct-acting solenoid valves can be used to control the flow of air, water, or light oil. They are available in normally closed, brass and stainless steel constructions for pipe sizes of 0.125 in., 0.25 in., and 0.375 in. The online configuration tool enables a customer to quickly model a valve to meet a set of specific requirements. It then displays the list price, availability, 3-D computer-aided design (CAD) drawings, and specifications for the configured product.

Condensate Drain Valve Assemblies
This comprehensive line of condensate drain valve assemblies is designed specifically for use in compressed air systems where drainage of moisture is critical. The valve assemblies are available in air-operated and solenoid-operated versions. Air-operated models incorporate a straight-through design with fewer components. This provides effective sealing and non-clog operation at a lower cost and with minimal maintenance. Solenoid-operated versions are compact and offer longer life in high-temperature, high-humidity applications. Condensate drain valves are used to remove water that develops in compressed air systems from changes in air temperature during the compression cycle. Failure to properly drain the condensate often results in air leakage, improper system operation and additional maintenance.

RedHat Next Generation line of solenoid valves
The RedHat Next Generation line of solenoid valves is now available with Class I, Div. 2 approval. The certification makes the valves ideal for use in hazardous locations and for watertight applications. In addition, the valves meet all NEMA Types 1 through 4X requirements for water-tight and dust-tight operation. With new power management technology and robust advanced electronics, the valve accepts both AC and DC voltages, while improving performance. Its 2-W power consumption achieves the same performance as a 17-W AC solenoid valve. DC performance has been increased by 150% to 500% from today’s industry standards, making the valves’ DC characteristics equivalent to AC pressure and flow values. The valves are offered in three voltage ranges covering most electrical requirements — 100–240/AC or DC, 24–99/AC or DC, or 12–24/DC and include 2-, 3-, and 4-way models for use in most fluid control applications.
