5/2-way solenoid valve, 173432

The Festo MEH-5/2-5 is a 5/2-way air solenoid valve designed to control pneumatic actuators in automated systems. It switches supply ports to extend or retract cylinders with a single signal. The valve is supplied new in a single pack, ready for installation.

Suited for pneumatic control panels.

This valve fits engineers building or servicing pneumatic control panels that need a compact 5/2 directional valve. It is not suited for applications requiring high flow rates or direct connection to uncompressed air mains. Buyers needing integrated sensors, manifold mounting or larger port sizes should look at other series.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the MEH-5/2-5 valve is actuating correctly after installation?

Apply the rated pneumatic pressure and electrical signal; the red valve body should shift positions audibly and the output port must deliver airflow without leakage.

What does the single-box package contain and what must I source separately?

The box holds one FESTO MEH-5/2-5,0-B valve (part 173432); fittings, tubing, mounting hardware and a suitable power supply are not included.

Which version of the MEH-5/2-5 should I select for a standard 5/2-way pneumatic circuit?

Choose the MEH-5/2-5,0-B variant (part 173432) — it is the 5/2-way solenoid valve described in the specifications.
