Parker B561BCNXXC Solenoid Valve 3-position 1/4 in

Product Description

The PARKER B561BCNXXC is a double solenoid, 3-position directional control valve designed for pneumatic and hydraulic circuit control in industrial and commercial fluid power systems. It features a pressure center open configuration in its unactuated state, a 1/4 inch port size, and an aluminum body with Buna-N seals. With a Cv factor of 1.4 and a maximum working pressure of 145 psi, this valve suits mid-range flow control applications. Note that solenoid coils are not included with this valve body and must be sourced separately. Licensed technicians and industrial maintenance professionals typically specify this valve for directional flow control in automated equipment and process systems.

This valve is suited for use in industrial automation, pneumatic control panels, and fluid power circuits where a 3-position, pressure center open spool configuration is required. The 1/4 inch port size fits standard pneumatic or hydraulic line connections common in light to medium-duty industrial equipment. Operating temperature must remain at or below 120 degrees F, and working pressure must stay within the 30 to 145 psi range. It is packaged as a single unit and is ordered in single-unit quantities.

Key Features

• Double solenoid, 3-position valve with pressure center open unactuated state
• 1/4 inch port size for standard pneumatic and hydraulic line connections
• Aluminum body construction for lightweight, corrosion-resistant service
• Buna-N seals rated for compatibility with a broad range of working fluids
• Cv factor of 1.4 for consistent mid-range flow performance
• Solenoid coils not included — must be specified and installed separately

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style directional control valve for pneumatic and fluid power systems requiring a double solenoid, 3-position, pressure center open configuration with a 1/4 inch port interface.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified fluid power technician or licensed industrial maintenance professional. Always depressurize and de-energize the system completely before removing or installing any valve component. Verify that the solenoid coils selected are compatible with the B561BCNXXC valve body before assembly, as coils are not included. Confirm all port connections are leak-free and that system pressure remains within the 30 to 145 psi operating range before returning the circuit to service.
