Festo 18 mm 12V DC Air Solenoid Valve
The Festo VSVA-B-T32H-AH-A2-5C1 is a pilot-controlled piston gate valve designed for pneumatic automation. It delivers a standard nominal flow rate of 400 l/min with an optimised concatenated flow of 400 l/min. The valve operates on 12V DC power with a 1.8 W coil and features an LED signal status display.
Check Voltage Pressure
Verify your system supplies 12V DC within the permissible fluctuation range of -15% to +10%. Ensure compressed air meets ISO 8573-1:2010 [7:4:4] quality and pressure stays between 2 bar and 10 bar. The 18 mm valve mounts in any position with a maximum tightening torque of 1 Nm.
Thermals Noise and Power Draw in Normal Use
The valve draws 1.8 W at 12V DC with a 100% duty cycle for continuous operation. Ambient and media temperature range spans -5 °C to 50 °C. Noise level reaches 85 dB(A) during switching. The NEMA 4 IP65 rating protects internal components from dust and water jets.

Questions about this item
What comes in the box with the VSVA-B-T32H-AH-A2-5C1 and is anything else needed to install it?
The box contains one valve unit weighing 174 g with an 18 mm body, LED signal display and IP65 protection. You will need to supply compressed air at 2–10 bar meeting ISO 8573-1:2010 [7:4:4] quality, a 12 V DC power source capable of 1.8 W, and suitable pneumatic tubing for the 5 mm nominal ports.
How do I choose between the flow-rate figures of 400, 450 and 600 l/min for this valve?
Use 400 l/min as the standard nominal flow rate for general sizing; 450 l/min applies when the valve is mounted on an individual sub-base; 600 l/min is the pneumatic-valve flow rate under ideal test conditions. Match the figure to your actual mounting arrangement.
What does the 400 l/min nominal flow rate mean once the valve is installed in a machine?
It indicates the valve can pass 400 litres of air per minute at 6 bar supply with a 1 bar pressure drop when pneumatically concatenated. With 13 ms on and 21 ms off switching times and 100 % duty cycle, it supports continuous high-speed cycling in the -5 °C to 50 °C operating range.
