Parker 06F20C2108AAF Solenoid Valve 3/8 Inch Npt

Product Description

The PARKER 06F20C2108AAF is a normally closed solenoid valve designed for controlling the flow of fluids, gases, and light oils in a wide range of industrial and mechanical systems. The valve features a brass body with an NBR seal and accepts a 3/8 inch NPT threaded connection. It operates on AC power at 6 watts and is rated for a maximum working pressure of 160 psi. The normally closed design ensures the valve remains shut when de-energized, making it a reliable choice for safety-critical shutoff applications. Licensed trades including HVAC technicians, plumbers, and mechanical contractors regularly specify this type of valve for process and equipment control.

This solenoid valve is suited for residential and light commercial applications involving compatible fluids, gases, and light oils. Its compact form and standard NPT threading make it straightforward to integrate into existing piping systems. The valve carries a minimum operating pressure differential of 0 psi, meaning it can operate in low-differential-pressure conditions where some solenoid valves would not function reliably. It is appropriate for use in HVAC equipment, plumbing systems, and light industrial machinery where precise flow control or automatic shutoff is required.

Key Features

• Normally closed operation — valve stays shut when de-energized for safe default shutoff
• 3/8 inch NPT port for direct integration with standard pipe fittings
• Brass body construction for durability in fluid and gas service
• NBR seal material compatible with a broad range of fluids and light oils
• Minimum operating pressure differential of 0 psi allows use in low-pressure systems
• UL Listed, CSA Certified, and NEMA 4X rated for use in wet or washdown environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit solenoid valve for systems requiring a 3/8 inch NPT normally closed valve compatible with fluids, gases, and light oils. Cross-references ASCO Number 8263G12.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber, HVAC technician, or qualified mechanical contractor in accordance with applicable local codes and the International Fuel Gas Code or International Plumbing Code where relevant. Shut off all system pressure and de-energize the circuit before removing or installing the valve. Verify that pipe thread connections are properly sealed with an appropriate thread sealant rated for the media being controlled. Do not exceed the 160 psi maximum working pressure rating at any point in the system.
