Parker H36VXBG023D 3-position Solenoid Valve 120VAC

Product Description

The PARKER H36VXBG023D is a double solenoid, 3-position directional control valve designed for pneumatic systems. In its unactuated state, the valve defaults to a center exhaust open position, allowing both actuator ports to vent to atmosphere when neither solenoid is energized. The valve body is constructed from aluminum, with nitrile seals for reliable performance across a broad range of pneumatic service conditions. Rated at 120 volts AC and featuring a Cv of 5.0, this valve delivers consistent flow capacity for mid-range pneumatic actuator and cylinder applications. Licensed HVAC technicians, pneumatic system integrators, and industrial maintenance professionals are the typical installers.

This valve is suited for pneumatic automation and fluid power applications where mid-stroke exhaust and dual-solenoid directional control are required. The center exhaust open configuration makes it appropriate for double-acting cylinder circuits where load drop or pressure relief at center is needed. It is used in both light industrial and commercial environments where 120 VAC control voltage is available and aluminum-bodied valves are acceptable for the service medium.

Key Features

• Double solenoid, 3-position design for bidirectional actuator control with a defined center state
• Center exhaust open unactuated state vents both work ports to atmosphere when de-energized
• Aluminum valve body offers a lightweight, corrosion-resistant construction for pneumatic service
• Nitrile seals provide compatibility with standard compressed air and many inert gas media
• 120 VAC coil voltage integrates with standard industrial control panel wiring
• Cv factor of 5.0 supports adequate flow capacity for mid-range pneumatic cylinder and actuator circuits

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style directional control valve for pneumatic system circuits requiring 3-position, double solenoid operation with center exhaust open functionality at 120 VAC control voltage.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified pneumatic systems technician or industrial maintenance professional familiar with directional control valve circuits. Depressurize and lock out the pneumatic supply and de-energize all control voltage before removing or installing the valve. Verify that the supply medium and system operating pressure are compatible with aluminum body and nitrile seal construction prior to installation. Consult applicable local codes and the system schematic to confirm correct port orientation and solenoid wiring before returning the circuit to service.
