Solenoid Valve G1/4'' NC Stainless steel PTFE 0-12bar/174psi 230VAC Vacuum Oxygen Fat/Oil Free 255 310812
Burkert 2/2 way solenoid valve (type 255) with G 1/4 inch threads and a 230 V AC coil. The circuit function of the solenoid valve is normally closed (voltage = open). The valve is direct operating, so no differential pressure required. Suitable for max media temperatures of 60 °C (140 °F) and a pressure range of 0 - 12 bar (174 psi). Housing of stainless steel with PTFE sealing and a 4 mm orifice. The Kv-value is 0.5 m3/h (8.34 l/min at dp = 1 bar water). Suitable for vacuum. The valve is fat and oil free.
Note: DIN connector is included.

Description
This is a Burkert direct operating 2/2 way solenoid valve with G 1/4 inch threads and a 230 V AC coil. The valve has a stainless steel housing with PTFE sealing and an orifice size of 4 mm. The circuit function of the solenoid valve is normally closed, which means the valve opens when voltage is applied. As it is direct operating, no pressure differential over the valve is needed to open the valve. Suitable for a pressure of 0 - 12 bar (174 psi) and a maximum temperature of 60 °C (140 °F). The valve has a Kv-value of 0.5 m3/h, this translates to a flow rate of 8 l/min at a differential pressure of 1 bar (for water). In imperial units: Cv = 1, which means 1 GPM @ 1 psi pressure drop. For many applications it is enough to select a valve based on the thread size and orifice diameter. For more accurate sizing, use the Kv-value with our easy to use valve sizing calculator. The stainless steel housing is very durable, strong and resistant to a wide range of chemicals with the exception of chloride solutions. The PTFE (polytetrafluoroethene or teflon) sealing, is resistant to almost all media. Please note that the internal valve parts, such as the stainless steel plunger and springs, are also in contact with the medium and must be chemically compatible. Consult our chemical resistance chart to verify compatibility of housing and seals with the medium. The valve is fat and oil free, meaning it won't contaminate the media. Therefore, it's suitable for laboratory use as well as oxygen. Suitable for vacuum applications. The valve has an IP65 rating if properly connected.
Pros:
- Suitable for vacuum applications
- Oil and fat free, so the valve does not contaminate the medium
- Good protection against the environment thanks to the IP65 rating
- This valve is suitable for use with oxygen
- Solenoid valves open and close very fast compared to many other valve types
Cons:
- Solenoid valves are very sensitive to dirt and can only be used with clean liquids and gases
- The coil may get hot when energized. A well ventilated environment is recommended
Series:
The Bürkert type 0255 plunger solenoid valve operates directly and is capable of functioning effectively under high pressures and temperatures. It features a push-over solenoid system and a compact design suitable for applications up to DN 6. The valve is available with a threaded connection and can be housed in either brass or stainless steel.
