Gems Sensors & Controls, a market leader in fluid sensing and control solutions, has introduced the energy-efficient E series family of pneumatic solenoid valves.

The E series solenoid valves are specifically engineered for air and dry gas applications, and feature a low power consumption of just 0.65 watts. A nickel-plated body and coil housing construction produces a highly durable, corrosion resistant valve. Featuring a fast response time, with high-pressure and high-flow capabilities, E series solenoid valves are ideal for application in medical and respiratory healthcare devices, printing machinery and sorting equipment, automated packaging equipment or air monitoring systems.

E series solenoid valves feature a compact cylindrical body, with diameters less than ¾-inch (19 mm), and lengths under 2 inches (50.8 mm). Seal and o-ring options include Viton, nitrile and EPR and silicone.

Multiple configurations
They are available in multiple 2- or 3-way configurations including Normally Open, Normally Closed, and Multi-purpose and Directional Control 3-way models. E series valves offer orifice sizes ranging from 0.032 to 0.078 inch (0.81 to 1.98 mm), and port configurations that include #10-32 straight thread, M5 x 0.8 threads, manifold mount and bottom under-seat port. Gems provides an informative ValvSelection Guide online.
