Festo CPE14 air solenoid valve

The Festo CPE14-M1BH-5/3GS-1/8 is a 5/3-way solenoid valve designed for pneumatic control in automation systems. It operates as a mid-position closed valve with G 1/8 ports, supplied new in a single pack. The unit carries manufacturer part number 196938 and is finished in red. It is intended for installation in compressed-air circuits where a centred neutral position is required.

Suited for pneumatic panel builders

This valve suits engineers assembling or maintaining pneumatic panels that need a 5/3 closed-centre function with G 1/8 connections. It is not for applications requiring a 5/2 function, a different port size, or a valve without a mid-position hold. Buyers needing higher flow rates or alternative spool types should look at other series.

5/3 closed-centre spool with G 1/8 ports

The defining specification is the 5/3 closed-centre spool configuration combined with G 1/8 threaded ports. This determines whether the valve matches the circuit schematic and manifold layout. Verify the symbol and port thread before ordering.

Questions about this item

How much noise or heat does the CPE14-M1BH-5/3GS-1/8 produce when running continuously?

As an air solenoid valve it operates without an electric motor, so it generates minimal noise and negligible heat during extended use.

What pneumatic supply and fittings are required for the 196938 valve to function?

You need a compressed-air source, 1/8-inch port connections and suitable tubing or push-in fittings to plumb the valve into your system.

Will the CPE14-M1BH-5/3GS-1/8 work alongside older Festo valve islands or manifolds?

The valve uses standard 1/8-inch ports and common mounting patterns, so it integrates with legacy Festo manifolds that share the same interface.
