Compact Brass Solenoid Valve
The ASCO U8256A091V is a 2-way normally closed solenoid valve built for air, inert gases, light oil, and water service. Its brass body and FKM seals handle a maximum operating pressure differential of 200 psi with a Cv of .16. The 1/8 inch orifice suits compact fluid-control circuits in commercial or light-industrial equipment.
Verify Voltage and Media Compatibility
Confirm the control circuit supplies 24V AC to match the coil rating before installation. Ensure the piping connections accept 1/8 inch pipe threads and that the system pressure never exceeds 200 psi differential. The open-frame coil enclosure requires a protected mounting location away from moisture or debris.
Replaces Larger Direct-Acting Valves
This compact unit upgrades bulky direct-acting valves where panel space is limited and a .16 Cv meets the flow requirement. The jump is worth it when a 2-position normally closed function simplifies wiring versus 3-way alternatives and the 24V AC supply is already present. Buyers needing higher flow coefficients or fuel-gas service should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item
Does the ASCO U8256A091V valve come with a coil or connector, or must they be ordered separately?
The valve is supplied with an open-frame coil for 24V AC operation. No separate coil or connector purchase is required for the listed configuration.
Which orifice size matches the 0.16 Cv rating on this model?
The 1/8 in orifice diameter provides the stated 0.16 coefficient of volume for air, inert gases, light oil and water.
What pressure can the valve actually hold when controlling compressed air at 24V AC?
The maximum operating pressure differential for air or inert gas is 200 psi with the FKM seals and brass body.
