Parker B5G2BCNXXC Solenoid Valve 3/8 Inch Npt

Product Description

The PARKER B5G2BCNXXC is a 3/8 inch NPT normally closed solenoid valve designed for fluid and gas control applications in industrial and commercial systems. The valve body is constructed from aluminum with a Buna-N seal, offering a reliable combination of corrosion resistance and flexibility across a range of media. It operates within a pressure range of 20 to 145 psi and carries a Cv factor of 1.4, making it suitable for moderate-flow control tasks. The coil is sold separately and not included with this valve body. Licensed HVAC technicians, plumbers, and industrial maintenance professionals are the typical installers for this type of component.

This valve is suited for use in pneumatic systems, fluid lines, and process control applications where automatic shutoff or flow control is required. The normally closed configuration means the valve remains shut when de-energized, providing a fail-safe condition on loss of power. Typical installation scenarios include refrigeration skids, compressed air lines, water systems, and chemical processing equipment where 3/8 inch NPT connections and aluminum construction are acceptable for the media and environment. Maximum working temperature is 120 degrees F.

Key Features

• Normally closed operation provides fail-safe shutoff when de-energized
• 3/8 inch NPT port size for standard threaded pipe connections
• Aluminum body construction for lightweight corrosion resistance
• Buna-N seal material compatible with a range of fluids and gases
• Cv factor of 1.4 supports moderate flow rates
• Operating pressure range: 20 to 145 psi

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation solenoid valve for systems utilizing 3/8 inch NPT threaded connections requiring a normally closed, aluminum-body valve. Coil must be sourced separately and matched to the required voltage and coil series for this valve body.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with the fluid or gas system being serviced. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing the valve. Apply appropriate thread sealant to NPT connections and torque fittings per the system piping standards in use. Verify coil voltage and compatibility before energizing the assembled valve.
