Parker B511ADH53C Solenoid Air Valve 4 Way 120 Vac

Product Description

The PARKER B511ADH53C is a 4-way, 2-position body-ported solenoid air valve designed for directional control of compressed air in pneumatic systems. It features a single solenoid actuator with air return, operating on 120 VAC input. The valve delivers a flow coefficient (Cv) of 1.4 and a maximum flow rate of 88 CFM, making it well suited for moderate-duty pneumatic actuation tasks. With a maximum working pressure of 145 psi and an operating temperature range of 0 to 160 degrees F, it handles a broad range of industrial and commercial pneumatic applications. Licensed HVAC, plumbing, and mechanical contractors as well as industrial maintenance technicians are the typical installers.

This valve is used in pneumatic control circuits where a single solenoid with spring or air return is required to shift between two positions. Common applications include actuating pneumatic cylinders, damper actuators, and control valves in commercial HVAC systems, process controls, and automated mechanical equipment. The body-ported design routes supply and exhaust through the valve body, simplifying manifold mounting and external plumbing. It is appropriate for both new installations and replacement service in existing pneumatic control panels.

Key Features

• 4-way, 2-position directional control for pneumatic actuators
• Single solenoid with air return for fail-safe operation
• 120 VAC coil input for direct connection to standard control circuits
• Flow coefficient of 1.4 Cv with 88 CFM flow capacity
• Maximum working pressure of 145 psi
• NEMA 4 rated enclosure for wet and washdown environments
• Operating temperature range of 0 to 160 degrees F

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation solenoid air valve for pneumatic control systems requiring a 4-way, 2-position body-ported configuration with 1/4 inch inlet and 1/4 inch outlet porting and a 120 VAC single solenoid actuator.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanical or instrumentation technician familiar with pneumatic control circuits. Depressurize the air supply and de-energize all control voltage before removing or installing the valve. Verify inlet and outlet port orientation against the system schematic before final mounting. Follow applicable mechanical and electrical codes, including NFPA 79 for industrial machinery, when integrating into control panels.
