Description
The ASCO Series 345, also known as 8345,is a line of compact 4-way
general service valves that are designed for low-flow applications. The
valves are commonly used in analytical and diagnostic equipment, biofuel
and heating systems, and refineries.
Features
- Compact valves for low-flow, general service applications
- Available in intrinsically safe, voltage-ranging, and long-life constructions
- Mountable in any position for installation flexibility
- Brass and stainless steel bodies available for a wide range of applications
- Molded one-piece solenoid with highly efficient solenoid cartridge and special low wattage coil
- Increased ambient temperature capabilities up to 175°F (80°C)
- Designed for use in automation of plant control systems to provide:
- PLC compatibility
- Reduced battery drain
- Reduced heat rise
- Reduced wiring cost
- Air or inert gas only
- Lower-cost alternative to intrinsically safe valves in critical applications not requiring a safety barrier
