Pro-source 6938002430PRO Stacking Solenoid Valve 24VDC 4.5 Cv

Product Description

The PRO-SOURCE 6938002430PRO is a 2-way, 2-position stacking solenoid valve with pilot actuation and air pilot return, designed for integration into pneumatic control manifold systems. It carries a Cv rating of 4.5 and operates on 24 volts DC, making it suitable for low-voltage pneumatic circuits found in industrial and light commercial automation setups. With 3/8-inch inlet and outlet ports and a maximum working pressure of 145 psi, this valve handles compressed air, light oil, and water service. Licensed fluid power technicians and industrial maintenance mechanics are the typical installers for this type of directional control component.

This valve is built for stacking manifold configurations where multiple valves share a common base, reducing plumbing complexity and saving panel space. It suits applications in compressed air distribution, pneumatic actuator control, and light fluid handling up to 194 degrees F. The air pilot return design means the valve shifts back to its normal position via pilot air pressure rather than a spring or electrical signal, which is common in fail-safe or sequenced pneumatic circuits in manufacturing and process automation environments.

Key Features

• 2-way, 2-position directional control with pilot actuation and air pilot return
• Cv rating of 4.5 with a flow capacity of 96.16 cubic feet per minute
• 24 volts DC coil voltage for low-voltage pneumatic control circuits
• 3/8-inch inlet and 3/8-inch outlet ports for standard pneumatic line connections
• Maximum working pressure of 145 psi and maximum working temperature of 194 degrees F
• Compatible with compressed air, light oil, and water media
• Stacking design integrates with manifold assemblies to minimize external plumbing

Compatibility

Designed for use with compressed air, light oil, and water service in stacking manifold pneumatic systems requiring 2-way, 2-position directional control with a 3/8-inch port size and 24 volts DC actuation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified fluid power technician or industrial maintenance mechanic familiar with pneumatic directional control valves. Isolate and depressurize the pneumatic circuit completely before removing or installing the valve. Verify that supply voltage matches the 24 volts DC coil specification before energizing. Follow applicable OSHA lockout/tagout procedures and the system manufacturer guidelines for manifold torque and seal integrity.
