Brass 3-Way Solenoid for Configurable Flow

The Red Hat 8320G172 is a brass-bodied, three-way solenoid valve with a configurable two-position action. It suits pneumatic or fluid-control circuits that need quick-exhaust function on a 1/4 inch pipe line. The 1/16 inch orifice and 0.09 Cv rating match low-flow air or inert-gas applications. Operators running 110-120 V AC coils will find the 125 psi pressure limit adequate for many shop systems.

Threaded Ports Simplify Mounting and Wiring

Installation uses standard 1/4 inch NPT threads on the body, so no special fittings are required beyond pipe sealant. The coil enclosure is watertight and supplied without a junction box, so the installer must provide a suitable conduit entry. A common error is exceeding the 125 psi air-pressure differential, which can prevent the valve from shifting. Another issue is applying fuel gas or fuel oil, which the specifications explicitly exclude.

Verify Voltage, Media and Pressure Before Ordering

Confirm that the control circuit delivers 110 V AC or 120 V AC to match the coil rating. Check that the working medium is air or inert gas only; fuel gas and fuel oil are not approved. Ensure system pressure stays at or below 125 psi differential across the valve. The brass body and NBR seals are compatible with typical lubricated air, but aggressive chemicals should be reviewed against material data.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the 8320G172 valve is operating correctly after installation?

Apply 110V AC or 120V AC power and confirm the solenoid actuates. Check that air or inert gas flows through the 1/4 in port at pressures up to 125 psi with the 0.09 Cv rating.

What components are included with the 8320G172 and what must be sourced separately?

The valve body, brass construction, NBR seals, 1/16 in orifice, and coil without a junction box are supplied. Pipe fittings, tubing, and wiring for the 110V/120V AC supply are not included.

Which voltage version of the 8320G172 should I select for a 120V AC control circuit?

This model operates on both 110V AC and 120V AC, so a single version covers standard North American control voltages. Choose the 8320G172 for either supply.
