Solenoid Air Control Valve for Pneumatic Systems
The Parker B612BB553A is a 4-way, 2-position solenoid valve designed to direct compressed air in automated pneumatic circuits. It operates on 120V AC power and features a body-ported, inline design with 3/8 inch NPT ports. This valve suits maintenance engineers and OEMs building or servicing air preparation and control assemblies.
Installation Uses Standard 3/8 Inch NPT Threads
The valve connects directly into existing 3/8 inch NPT piping and uses a 15mm 3-pin male DIN connector for electrical wiring. A minimum pilot pressure of 20 psi is required to shift the solenoid/spring actuator reliably. The NEMA 4 rated body resists wash-down and splashing environments, but the coil must be wired to a compatible 120V AC supply to avoid damage.
2.5 CFM Flow at 20 to 145 PSI Determines Suitability
The valve delivers a maximum flow of 2.5 cfm with a Cv of 2.7 across an operating pressure range of 20 to 145 psi. It also supports vacuum service up to 28 in Hg. Systems demanding higher flow rates or pressures beyond this envelope will need a larger valve body.

Questions about this item
How do I verify the solenoid is cycling correctly after installation?
Apply 20 to 145 psi air supply and energise the 120V AC coil; the valve should shift and deliver up to 2.5 cfm with a 2.7 Cv flow coefficient.
What comes in the box and what must I supply?
The valve body with 3/8 in NPT ports, 15 mm solenoid, and 3-pin male DIN connector are included; you must provide 120V AC power, compressed air at 20 to 145 psi, and 3/8 in piping.
Which configuration matches my 120V AC, 3/8 in line requirement?
Choose the B612BB553A model — it is a 4-way/2-position, body-ported valve with 3/8 in NPT ports, 120V AC coil, NEMA 4 rating, and spring return.
