Festo Pneumatic Solenoid Valve 3/2 Way Closed Monostable Electric G Threaded Port 1/4 in Aluminium Body MFH-3-1/4

Festo MFH-3-1/4 Pneumatic Solenoid Valve 3/2 Way Closed Monostable Electric G Series is an industrial-grade pneumatic valve designed for precise control of compressed air in automation systems. Manufactured with a robust aluminium die-cast body and Nitrile Rubber (NBR) seals, this valve offers excellent corrosion resistance and is compatible with lubricated media conforming to ISO 8573-1:2010 air quality standards.

The valve supports a maximum operating pressure of 8 bar and a maximum flow rate of 800 L/min, enabling rapid actuation and efficient throughput. Operating temperature ranges from -5 °C to 40 °C ambient, with medium temperatures allowable from -10 °C to 60 °C, supporting a wide range of environmental applications.

Equipped with a single solenoid that consumes only 4.5 W, the valve ensures energy-efficient operation. It features a 3-port, 2-position closed monostable valve function with spring return, suitable for piloted applications using a valve-mounted F type coil mounted via through holes or manifold rails. The coil supports electrical supply variants of 240V AC or 48V DC, ordered separately.

The pilot exhaust through a throttleable M5 port allows adjustable venting to control cylinder descent or damping, enhancing control precision. Its IP65 protection class permits operation in dusty or damp environments.

Capacity of 800 L/min for efficient air flow. Maximum operating pressure of 8 bar suitable for diverse pneumatic systems. Single solenoid with low 4.5 W power consumption. Durable Nitrile Rubber seals reduce leakage and support lubricated air media.

Compact dimensions: 143 mm length, 73.5 mm height, 30.5 mm width. Through-hole mounting enables easy installation in manifolds or direct setups. Certified for hazardous environment use with ATEX and compliant with cULus, RoHS.

Electrical connection type F Coil, coil ordered separately.

This Pneumatic Solenoid Valve is widely applicable in industrial automation, including pneumatic control of valve actuators in assembly lines, sequence control in packaging machinery, and pick-and-place equipment requiring fast and reliable valve switching. It is ideal for installation on manifold rails providing compact, flexible pneumatic control islands in factory environments.
