A solenoid valve is a combination of two basic
functional units:
A solenoid (electromagnet) with its core
A valve body containing one or more orifices
Flow through an orifice is shut off or allowed by
the movement of the core when the solenoid is
energized or de-energized. ASCO valves have a
solenoid mounted directly on the valve body. The
core is enclosed in a sealed tube, providing a
compact, leaktight assembly.
Direct Acting Valves (Figures 1A, 1B)
When the solenoid is energized in a direct acting
valve, the core directly opens the orifice of a
Normally Closed valve or closes the orifice of a
Normally Open valve. When de-energized, a
spring returns the valve to its original position.
The valve will operate at pressures from 0 psi to
its rated maximum.
The force needed to open the valve is proportional
to the orifice size and fluid pressure. As the orifice
size increases, so does the force required. To open
large orifices while keeping solenoid size small, a
Pilot Operated construction is used.
Internal Pilot Operated Valves
(Figures 2A, 2B)
Normally, these valves have a pilot and bleed
orifice which enable them to use line pressure for
operation.
When the solenoid is de-energized, the pilot orifice
is closed and full line pressure is applied to the top
of the piston or diaphragm through the bleed
orifice, providing seating force for tight closure.
When the solenoid is energized, the core opens
the pilot orifice, relieving pressure from the top of
the piston or diaphragm via the outlet side of the
valve. The line pressure then opens the valve by
lifting the diaphragm or piston off the main orifice.
Two constructions are available for 2-way valves:
Floating diaphragm or piston which requires a
minimum pressure drop across the valve to remain
in the open position (Figures 2A, 2B).
Hung-type diaphragm or piston held open
mechanically by the solenoid core.
The valve
opens and remains open with zero pressure drop
(Figures 3A, 3B).
Manual Reset Valves
(Figures 4A, 4B)
Manual reset valves must be manually latched into
position and will return to their original position
only when the solenoid has been energized or
de-energized, depending on construction

2-Way Valves
(Figures 1A, 1B, 2A, 2B, 3A, 3B)
Two-way valves have one inlet and one outlet pipe
connection. They are used to allow or shut off fluid
flow, and are available in either:
Normally Closed – closed when de-energized and
open when energized.
Normally Open – open when de-energized and
closed when energized.
3-Way Valves
(Figures 5A, 5B)
Three-way valves have three pipe connections
and two orifices (when one is open, the other is
closed, and vice versa). They are commonly used
to alternately apply pressure to and exhaust pres-
sure from the diaphragm operator of a control
valve, single -acting cylinder, or rotary actuator.
Three modes of operation are available:
Normally Closed – when the valve is de-energized,
the pressure port is closed and the cylinder port is
connected to the exhaust port. When the valve is
energized, the pressure port is connected to the
cylinder port and the exhaust port is closed.
Normally Open – when the valve is de-energized,
the pressure port is connected to the cylinder port
and the exhaust port is closed. When the valve is
energized, the pressure port is closed and the
cylinder port is connected to the exhaust port.
Universal – allows the valve to be connected in
either the Normally Closed or Normally Open
position to select one of two fluids or to divert flow
from one port to another.
4-Way Valves
(Figures 6A, 6B)
Four-way valves are generally used to operate
double-acting cylinders or actuators. They have
four or five pipe connections: one pressure, two
cylinder, and one or two exhausts. In Position A,
pressure is connected to one cylinder port, the
other is connected to exhaust. In Position B,
pressure and exhaust are reversed at the cylinder
ports.

Notes:
As measured by the “Resistance Method.”
Ambient temperatures are directly additive to coil rise —
fluid temperature is not.
For M-6, 50 Hz wattage values, add 2 watts to the
indicated values.
Because of explosionproof codes and surface temperature
limitations, the maximum listed ambients for specific valves
should not be exceeded.
Consult factory concerning
explosionproof applications where higher-than-listed ambients
are encountered.
Maximum temperatures shown are industrial limits. For UL
limits, subtract 27°F (15°C) for Class F coils and 36°F (20°C)
for Class H coils.
AC Ambient Capabilities
Solenoid Coils (Non-Electronic*)
Except where noted, all ASCO valves are
equipped with coils which can be energized con-
tinuously without danger of overheating or failure.
Standard coils have 18" leads which can be con-
nected to any controlling device. Spade, screw
terminal, and DIN-type spade connector coils are
also available. For three phase power systems, the
two leads can be connected to any two of the
three phases.
All coils are constructed in accordance with
Underwriters Laboratories Inc., NEMA, IEEE, and
other industrial standards ASCO Class B, F, and
H insulation systems are UL listed in the
Recognized Component Index (yellow book)
under Guide No. OBJY2.
For AC ambient capabilities, see chart to the right.
DC ambient capabilities are 104°F (40°C), or 131˚F
(55˚C) for RedHat II depending on construction.
These ambients are based on a minimum available
voltage of 85% of nominal. If minimum available
voltage is greater, a higher ambient limitation may
be possible.
Consult factory for details.

Coil Operating Voltage Ranges
All coils are designed for industrial operating voltages
and can be used on the following voltage ranges:
Note: Special coils are required for battery charging
circuits where wider voltage ranges are typically
encountered. For these applications, special
continuous duty Class H coils are available that will
accom modate a voltage range equivalent to 12%
over nominal, 28% under nominal, and a 140°F
(60°C) ambient. Standard nominal voltages are
125 and 250 DC, which translate to a voltage
range of 90-140 and 180-280, respectively. Add
prefix “HC” to the catalog number. “HC” prefix is
only applicable to valves with coil classes FT and
HT.
Consult factory for other constructions.
Most ASCO valves, depending upon construction,
will operate at 15% under nominal voltage and
maximum operating pressure differential, and are
capable of operating for short periods at 10% over
nominal voltage. For coil classes other than FT and
HT, over voltage is not recommended.
For wider
voltage ranges than shown here or for operating
voltage ranges for specific catalog numbers,
please consult your local ASCO sales office.
Power Consumption
Power consumption can be determined from the
ratings shown on individual Series pages. For AC
valves, the watts, volt-ampere “inrush” (the high
momentary surge occurring at coil energization),
and volt-ampere “holding” (the continuous draw
following inrush) are given.
The current rating for inrush and holding may be
determined by dividing the voltage into the
volt-amp rating:
Notes:
1. When a valve has been energized for a long
period, the solenoid becomes hot and can be
touched by hand for only an instant. This is a
perfectly safe operating temperature. Any excessive
heating will be indicated by smoke and the odor
of burning coil insulation.
2. Valves for AC service can be converted to
other AC voltages simply by changing the coil.
Similarly, DC valves can be converted to other
DC voltages.
When converting from AC to DC, or
vice versa, consult your local ASCO sales office
for instructions.
Solenoid Constructions
Internal parts in contact with fluids are of
non-magnetic 300 and magnetic 400 series stainless
steel. In AC constructions, the shading coil is
normally copper, except that silver is mostly used in
valves with stainless steel bodies. Other materials
are available, when required. In DC constructions,
no shading coil is required. Typically, the core
tubes are of 300 series stainless steel.
DC valves have no inrush current. The amp rating
can be determined by dividing the voltage into
the DC watt rating:

Hazardous Location Solenoid Temperature
Range Codes
Hazardous location solenoids are marked to indicate
the maximum exposed surface temperature or
temperature indicating code. This temperature is
based on the maximum obtained in the temperature
or burnout (blocked core) tests, whichever is higher,
at a minimum ambient of 104°F (40°C) or at the
rated maximum ambient temperature.
To prevent ignition of hazardous atmospheres, do
not install in areas where vapors or gases having
ignition temperatures lower than the marked
temperatures are present.
The operating temperatures for each indicating
code are shown in the following chart:
Most RedHat II solenoids and/or solenoid valves
are marked:
“To prevent fire or explosion, do not install where
ignition temperature of hazardous atmosphere is less
than 329°F (165°C). Open circuit before disassembly .”
This corresponds to code number T3B.
Valves with Class H solenoids and valves used on
steam service are marked:
“To prevent fire or explosion, do not install where
ignition temperature of hazardous atmosphere is less
than 356°F (180°C). Open circuit before disassembly .”
This corresponds to code number T3A.
The Class II, Group F, Dust Location designation is
not applicable for solenoids and/or solenoid
valves used for steam service, or when a Class H
solenoid is used.
RedHat II Explosionproof solenoids include an
internal, non-resettable thermal fuse to limit sole-
noid temperature in the event that extraordinary
conditions occur which could cause excessive
temperatures. These conditions include high
input voltage, a jammed valve, excessive ambi-
ent temperature, shorted coil, etc. This unique
feature is standard only in RedHat II solenoids.
When used on valves having fluid temperature
ratings exceeding 250°F (121°C), consult ASCO
for applicable enclosure class, groups and
temperature range codes. For temperature
range codes of optional solenoids and features,
or if a better temperature range code is desired,
consult your local ASCO sales office.

Maximum Operating Pressure Differential
(M.O.P.D.)
The maximum operating pressure differential refers
to the maximum difference in pressure between the
inlet and outlet, against which the solenoid can
safely operate the valve. If the pressure at the valve
outlet is not known, it is safest to regard supply
pressure as the M.O.P.D.
Minimum Operating Pressure Differential
The minimum operating pressure differential is
that which is required to open the valve and keep
it open. For 2-way valves with a floating piston or
diaphragm, the valve will start to close below the
minimum operating differential pressure. For 3
and 4-way pilot valves, the minimum operating
pressure is measured between the pressure and
exhaust ports, and must be maintained through-
out the operating cycle to ensure complete
transfer from one position to the other.
Note: Direct acting, hung diaphragm or hung piston valves do not
require a minimum pressure, but may not yield maximum flow on low
pressure differentials.
Safe Working Pressure
Safe working pressure is the line or system pressure
to which the valve may be subjected without being
damaged.
Contact the factory or your local ASCO
sales office if you require this value.
Proof Pressure
Proof pressure is five times the safe working pres-
sure.
Contact the factory or your local ASCO sales
office if you require this value.
Operating Pressures
Minimum Ambient Temperature
The nominal limitation of 32°F (0°C) is advisable for
any valve that might contain moisture (water vapor).
Where freezing water is not a factor, minimum
ambience as low as 0°F (-18°C) can be tolerated. In
addition, special constructions are available for
ambient temperatures down to -40°F (-40°C).
Consult your local sales office with your specific needs.
Ambient Temperatures*
Response time from fully closed to fully open or
vice versa depends on the valve size and operat-
ing mode, electrical service, fluids, temperature,
inlet pressure, and pressure drop. The response
time for AC valves on air service, under average
conditions, can be generalized as follows:
Small direct acting valves: 5 to 10 milliseconds.
Large direct acting valves: 20 to 40 milliseconds.
Internal pilot operated valves:
1. Small diaphragm types: 15 to 50 milliseconds.
2. Large diaphragm types: 50 to 75 milliseconds.
3. Small piston types: 75 to 100 milliseconds.
4. Large piston types: 100 to 150 milliseconds
Generally speaking, operation on liquids has rela-
tively little effect on small direct acting valves;
however, response time of large direct acting and
internally piloted valves will slow by 50% to 100%.
Response time of DC valves will be 50% slower
than equivalent AC valves. For specific response
time on any critical-timing applications, response
time can be reduced to meet specific requirements.

Maximum Ambient Temperature
The nominal maximum ambient temperatures listed
are based primarily on test conditions used by
Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. for setting safe limits
for coil insulation. They are determined under con-
tinuously energized conditions and with maximum
fluid temperatures in the valves. Actual conditions,
in many applications, will permit use at considerably
higher ambient temperatures. In addition, modifica-
tions to standard constructions are available to
extend maximum ambient temperature limitations.

An air operated valve has two basic functional units:
An operator with a diaphragm or piston assembly
which, when pressurized, develops a force to operate
A valve containing an orifice in which a disc or plug is
positioned via air pressure to stop or allow flow
Operators
Two operators are offered in this catalog, each
having a pressure range to suit various industrial
requirements: instrument air range 3 to 30 psi
(0.2 to 2.1 bar) and pneumatic range 30 to 125
psi (2.1 to 8.6 bar).
When a particular valve is selected, any pressure
within its pressure range will operate the valve,
regardless of variations in the main line pressure.
Control air for the operator
is completely isolated from
the main line fluid by a
unique seal arrangement
(see Figure 7). This permits
a wide range of main line
fluids to be handled .
The instrument air pressure range operator utilizes
a diaphragm (see Figure 8A) for operation, while
the pneumatic range operator has a piston (see
Figure 8B). By applying pressure to and exhaust-
ing pressure from the operator, the main valve will
open or close.
Direct Acting Valves (Figures 9A, 9B)
In a direct acting valve, the operator stem is
moved by the diaphragm or piston and directly
opens or closes the orifice, depending on whether
the operator is pressurized or exhausted. The
valve will operate from zero psi to its maximum
rated pressure.
Internal Pilot Operated Valves (Figure 10A, 10B)
This valve is equipped with a pilot and bleed ori-
fice and uses the line pressure for operation.
When the operator is pressurized, it opens the
pilot orifice and releases pressure from the top of
the valve piston or diaphragm to the outlet side of
the valve. This results in unbalanced pressure,
which causes the line pressure to lift the piston or
diaphragm off the main orifice, thereby opening
the valve. When the operator is exhausted, the
pilot orifice is closed and full line pressure is
applied to the top of the valve piston or
diaphragm through the bleed orifice, providing a
seating force for tight closure.
Two types of construction are available:
Floating diaphragm or piston, which requires a
minimum pressure drop to hold it in the open position .
Hung type diaphragm or piston, which is
mechanically held open and
operates from
zero to the maximum pressure rating.

Minimum Operating Pressure Differential
The minimum operating pressure differential is
that which is required to open the valve and to
keep it open. Two way valves with floating piston
or diaphragm will start to close below the mini-
mum differential pressure. Three and four way
pilot valves must maintain the minimum operating
pressure throughout the operating cycle to ensure
complete transfer from one position to the other.
Maximum Operating Pressure
Maximum operating pressure is the highest pres-
sure at the inlet side of the valve, against which the
operator can operate the valve. This pressure may
be much less than the maximum safety rating of
the valve body.
Note: Direct acting valves do not require a minimum pressure.

Agency Valve Classifications and Code Reference
General Purpose Valve – a Normally Open or Normally
Closed valve intended to control the fluid flow, but not to
be depended upon to act as a safety valve. This is a UL
and CSA classification, and is not intended to indicate
valve service or application.
Safety Shutoff Valve
– a Normally Closed valve of the
“on” and “off” type, intended to be actuated by a
safety control or emergency device, to prevent unsafe
fluid delivery. It may also be used as a General Purpose
valve. A multiple port valve may be designated as a
Safety Shutoff valve only with respect to its Normally
Closed port. This is a UL, FM, and CSA valve classifica-
tion.
Safety shutoff valves are listed in UL index
under Guide YIOZ or YIOZ2 for ordinary locations
and YTSX or YTSX2 for hazardous locations.
Process Control Valve – an FM approved valve to
control flammable gases, not to be relied upon as a
Safety Shutoff valve. Refer to note under individual
valve listing. Unless otherwise stated under the
individual Series numbers, valves are listed as General
Purpose valves.
Underwriters Laboratories, Inc.
UL standards governing solenoid valves are:
UL429, “Electrically Operated Valves,”
UL1002, “Electrically Operated Valves
for Use in Hazardous Locations.”
UL1604, “Electrical Equipment for use in Class
I and II, Division 2 and Class III Hazardous
Classified Locations.”
UL provides two “Listing” categories for solenoid valves:
General Use. Valves authorized for general use are
complete in their requirements; therefore, they may be
installed in the field. They are identified by the UL
symbol, followed by the word “Listed” and the valve
classification. UL Listings for ASCO “General Use”
valves and solenoids can be found in the “UL Gas and
Oil
Equipment Directory” under Electrically Operated
Valves, Guide No. YIOZ or YI0Z2 (File MP-618), and
in the “UL Hazardous Location Equipment List”
under Electric Valves, Guide No. YTSX or YTSX2
(File E25549) or under Solenoids, Guide No. VAPT
(File E12264).
Component. Valves in this category are
intended for use as factory-installed
components of equipment where final
acceptability must be determined by
UL. They are not intended for installation in the field.
Component valves are termed “UL Recognized” and
use ULs special Recognized Component mark. UL
Listings of ASCO Component Valves can be found in
the “UL Recognized Component Index” under
Electrically Operated Valves, Guide No. YIOZ2 and
YSY12 (File MP-618).
Canadian Standards Association
Standard C22.2 No. 139, “Electrically
Operated Valves,” covers the standards
governing solenoid valves.
Standard C22.2 No. 213, “Electrical equipment
for use in Class I, Division 2 hazardous locations.”
CSA certified valves and solenoids are listed in the
“CSA Certified Electrical Equipment Book” under
Valves, Guide No. 440-A-0 (File 10381) and Guide
No. 440-A-0.8 (File 13976).
Factor y Mutual Research
Corporation
FM “approves” and lists in the
“Factory Mutual Approval Guide”
fuel oil and fuel gas safety shutoff
valves, process control valves, explosionproof /
dust-ignitionproof, and intrinsically safe valves for
hazardous locations. Valves designated for other
fluids and operational characteristics, although not
subject to FM approval, are usually “accepted” by
FM on specific equipment installations.

Industrial Risk Insurers (Formerly FIA)
Industrial Risk Insurers does not approve equipment. It
established “recommended good practices” in such
areas as combustion safeguards on single-burner
boiler -furnaces, and safeguarding Class B and Class C
furnaces and ovens. Conforming to these practices
results in either insurability for fire protection or in
more advantageous rates for their protection.
To meet the standards of good practice, safety
controls must be either listed by Underwriters
Laboratories, accepted by Industrial Risk Insurers
or other nationally recognized testing laboratories
(NRTL). The National Fire Protection Association
(NFPA) maintains similar requirements and recom-
mendations for safety shutoff and vent valves in oil
and gas burner boiler systems.
European Directives – CE
The Council of the European
Communities, under the treaty
establishing the European
Community (EC), adopted into law a series of
directives to harmonize technical standards.
Solenoid valves are controlled by:
EMC (Electomagnetic Capability) 2004/108/EC
Low Voltage 2006/95/EC
ASCO valves complying to these directives,
through third-party or self-certification, display
the CE mark on the nameplate or coil and on the
Instruction and Maintenance sheet packaged with
each valve. On request, ASCO will issue a
Declaration of Incorporation and/or Declaration
of Conformity for the valve supplied.
ASCO’s Quality Assurance Program meets all the
requirements of
ISO-9001:2008
. We are also
certified to IQ Net, providing customers with the
products from 17 ISO-certified facilities around
the world. The US, Canada, UK, France, the
Netherlands, Germany, and Japan are included.
When desired, ASCO solenoid valves can be
supplied to meet the additional requirements of
a variety of approval agencies around the world.

Improper sizing of a solenoid valve results in below-
stan dard performance and can involve unnecessary
cost.
The basic factors in valve sizing include:
Maximum and minimum flows to be controlled
Maximum and minimum pressure differential
across the valve
Specific gravity, temperature, and viscosity of
fluids being controlled
The Cv method of valve sizing reduces all variables
to a common denominator called the Flow
Coefficient. After existing or projected conditions
have been converted to this coefficient (the Cv),
the proper valve size can be found in the catalog
pages.
This section provides the complete procedure and
reference data for accurate sizing of ASCO sole-
noid valves in liquid, gas services, and steam. The
graphs provide the simplest means of finding the
required Cv factor, and are based on the formula:
The graph factor can be determined by aligning
known pressure conditions on the graphs.
Estimating Cv or Orifice Size:
The table below can be used to estimate a Cv if
the orifice size is known or, conversely, to relate the
approximate orifice size if the Cv is known. The
chart is based on the ASCO designs of inline
globe type valves.
The flow charts must be used for precise sizing
and converting Cv factors to actual flow terms,
and the catalog must be consulted for the actual
Cv of a particular valve.

Liquids:
To find Cv: What Cv is required to pass 20 GPM of
oil, with a specific gravity of 0.9 and a pressure drop
of 25 psi? The viscosity is less than 300 SSUs.
Solution: Formula is:
Steam:
To find Cv: A valve is required to pass 25 lb/hr of
saturated steam at an inlet pressure of 7 psig and
a
p
of 3 psi. What is the Cv?
Solution: Refer to the Steam Graph on page 11.18.
Use formula:
Locate Fg on graph corresponding to 7 psig inlet
pressure and 3 psi
p
(curved lines). Fg = 23.5.
Insert values into formula:
For further information, consult your local ASCO
sales office.
Notes:
Liquid formulas and flow graphs are based on US gallons.
If viscosity is less than 300 SSU, correction factors are not necessary.
p stands for pressure drop.
Locate Fg at the intersection of 60 psig inlet pressure
and 10 psi
p
(curved lines). Read down to Fg.
Fg=1560.
Locate Fsg corresponding to specific gravity of
carbon dioxide (S.G.=1.5). Fsg=0.81. (Refer to next
page.) Since the gas is at room temperature, the
Ft factor can be ignored.
Insert values into formula:
To find Fg (Graph Factor), use Liquid Flow Graph
on page 11.16. The Fg factor is that corresponding
to 25 psi pressure drop and equals 5. The Fsg
factor (Specific Gravity Factor) can be obtained
from the Fsg Chart, and is that corresponding to .9
specific gravity and equals 1.05.
Therefore:
Air and Gases:
To find Cv: A valve is required to pass 500 SCFH at
an inlet pressure of 60 psig and a
p
of 10 psi.
Find Cv if the fluid is carbon dioxide at room tem-
perature.
Solution: Refer to 10-100 psig graph on page
11.17. The formula to be used is:

All orders entered using this guide must state
actual fluid, fluid pressure, fluid concentration,
and fluid temperature of the application. Actual
fluid is extremely important when elastomer
options are specified because other substitutions
may be required.
ASCO valves are available to control many acids,
alcohols, bases, solvents, and corrosive gases and
liquids. Modified or special designs are some-
times required, depending upon the application.
Corrosion occurs either as a chemical or electro-
chemical reaction. Therefore, consideration must be
given to both the galvanic and electromotive force
series, as well as to pressure, temperature, and other
factors that might be involved in the application.
This guide provides information on types of valves
that are available for most common corrosive and
non-corrosive gases and liquids.
For applications
in which abnormal conditions exist and for other
fluids, consult your local ASCO office, giving full
details on operating conditions.
This guide is not intended as a specific recommen-
dation; factors beyond our control could affect valve
operation or materials.
Material Selection Guide for Commonly Used Fluids
NBR (Buna ‘N’, Nitrile)
NBR is commonly referred to as a nitrile rubber
and is the standard synthetic elastomer for accom-
plishing resilient-type seating or sealing in ASCO
valves. It has excellent compatibility for most air,
water, and light oil applications. It has a useful
temperature range of 0°F to 180°F (-18°C to 82°C).
CR (Neoprene)
CR is principally used as an external seal in refrig-
eration applications. It is also utilized for oxygen
service. It has a useful temperature range of 0°F to
180°F (-18°C to 82°C).
EPDM (Ethylene Propylene)
EPDM is selected for applications above the NBR
temperature range, such as handling hot water
and steam. Ethylene propylene has an extremely
wide range of fluid compatibility, but has the dis-
tinct disadvantage that it cannot be used with
petroleum-based fluids or contaminated fluids
(such as lubricated air). It has a useful temperature
range of -10°F to 300°F (-23°C to 149°C).
FKM (Viton
®
/Fluorel
®
, etc.)
FKM is a fluorocarbon elastomer primarily developed
for handling such hydrocarbons as jet fuels, gaso-
lines, solvents, etc., which normally cause detrimental
swelling to NBR. FKM has a high temperature range
similar to EPDM, but with the advantage of being
somewhat more resistant to “dry heat.” FKM has a
wide range of chemical compatibility. It has a useful
temperature range of 0°F to 350°F (-18°C to 177°C).
PTFE (Teflon
®
, Rulon)
PTFE and PTFE with fillers are considered more
a plastic than a resilient-type material. They are
virtually unattacked by any fluid. Their tempera-
ture usage has ranged from discs for cryogenic
valves to discs for steam valves. They are not
easily fabricated and are known to have “cold
flow” characteristics which may contribute to
objectionable leakage, particularly on gases.

Next Generation
The coils with voltage ranges of 100-240 and 24-99
have three lead wires, 24 inches long (2 red for
power input, and one green lead for grounding
where necessary). These two versions are not
polarity sensitive.
The coil with a voltage range of 12-24/DC has 3
lead wires, one red, one black, and one green. This
coil is polarity sensitive. The red lead is the posi-
tive, black is the negative, and green is the ground
wire. This solenoid is also polarity protected.
Reversing the polarity will not damage the coil, but
the coil will not function until the correct polarity
is applied.
Note: The 100-240 voltage range is also suitable
for battery charging circuits designed around a
125/DC nominal voltage range.

Inrush Current: The power source, wiring, and
output device used need to have surge ratings
equal to or greater than the inrush current value
(appropriate to the voltage range) specified in
the table below.
Holding Current: The power source, wiring, and
output device used need to have continuous cur-
rent ratings equal to or greater than the holding
current value (appropriate to the voltage range)
specified in the table below.
Leakage Currents: The leakage current is defined
as a current that is supplied from an output device
when the device is in its off or de-activated state.
Operation of Next Generation coil in a system that
utilizes supervisory currents is not recommended.
The advanced technology used in the Next
Generation coil includes electronic circuitry which
may limit the compatibility with certain control
system components. The following issues need to
be considered when specifying an output card or
device to operate the Next Generation coil. An
initial inrush current spike is drawn by the Next
Generation coil. This inrush spike is 72 msec in
duration, which is sufficient time for the core to
reach the plugnut. The electrical requirement then
drops to the holding value.
Solenoid Enclosures
The Next Generation solenoid coil is fully encap-
sulated using Dupont™ Zenite
®
Liquid Crystal
Polymer resin (LCP). Zenite (LCP) is a thermoplas-
tic polyester resin which exhibits several advan-
tages over other thermoplastics. The advantages
include excellent resistance to a wide range of
organic solvents and automotive fluids*, resis-
tance to impact, and long term retention of prop-
erties at continuous-use temperatures.
*Chemical resistance of Zenite LCP may not be
suitable for all applications. Zenite LCP is not suit-
able for caustic solution.
Please consult ASCO for
appropriate product solutions.
