Parker B350BB549C Stacking Solenoid Valve 4-way 24VDC

Product Description

The PARKER B350BB549C is a stacking solenoid valve configured for 4-way, 3-position operation with double solenoid actuation and solenoid return. It is designed for directional control of pneumatic circuits in industrial and automation applications. The valve carries a Cv rating of 0.600 and operates on 24 volts DC, making it compatible with standard low-voltage control systems. Both inlet and outlet port sizes are 1/8 inch. Rated to NEMA 4 for resistance to water ingress, this valve suits installations where moisture exposure is a concern. Licensed HVAC, automation, and fluid power technicians are the primary installers of this component.

This valve is used in pneumatic control systems requiring 3-position directional switching, such as cylinder actuation, actuator sequencing, or process control circuits. The stacking design allows multiple valves to share a common manifold base, reducing plumbing complexity in multi-circuit systems. It is suited for both light industrial and commercial applications operating within its rated pressure and temperature range. The 3-position configuration provides a center condition that can hold, exhaust, or pressurize downstream components depending on the application design.

Key Features

• 4-way, 3-position directional control with double solenoid actuation and solenoid return
• Cv rating of 0.600 for controlled flow in low-to-medium flow pneumatic circuits
• Operates at 24 volts DC, compatible with standard PLC and low-voltage control panels
• 1/8 inch inlet and outlet port sizing for compact circuit integration
• NEMA 4 rated enclosure for protection against splashing water and washdown environments
• Stacking body design for manifold-mount multi-valve assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit component for stacking solenoid valve manifold systems requiring 4-way, 3-position, double solenoid directional control valves with 1/8 inch porting and 24 volt DC coils.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified fluid power or automation technician familiar with pneumatic directional control valves. Depressurize the pneumatic circuit and disconnect all electrical power before servicing or replacing the valve. Verify coil voltage matches the control circuit supply before energizing. Consult applicable electrical codes, including NEC guidelines, when integrating into control panel wiring.
