Festo 159688 pneumatic solenoid valve

The Festo MN1H-5/2-D-1-C is a 5/2-way air solenoid valve designed for pneumatic control circuits. It switches compressed air between two outlet ports using an electric coil, making it suitable for machine automation and process control. The unit is supplied new in a single pack.

Installers needing a direct-acting 5/2 valve

This valve suits maintenance engineers and panel builders who need a compact, electrically actuated 5/2 directional control valve for standard compressed air systems. It is not for applications requiring a 3/2 function, a 5/3 centre position, pilot-operated actuation, or fieldbus integration.

5/2-way directional control function

The defining specification is the 5/2-way configuration, which provides two distinct outlet ports that alternate pressure when the solenoid is energised. This function determines whether the valve matches the circuit design or if a different port arrangement is required.

Questions about this item

Will this Festo MN1H-5/2-D-1-C valve fit the existing pneumatic ports on my older Festo manifold?

The valve uses standard Festo port patterns for the MN1H series; match the port thread size and spacing on your manifold to the valve body before installation.

How can I verify the 159688 solenoid is actuating correctly after wiring it?

Apply the rated control voltage and listen for the distinct click of the spool shifting; then confirm airflow switches between the two output ports as expected.

Does the box include the connector cable and mounting screws, or must I order them separately?

The package contains one valve unit only; the electrical connector, mounting hardware and tubing fittings are sold separately.
