Festo 5/2 Solenoid Valve 12V DC

The Festo VSVA-B-M52-MZH-A2-5C1 is a 5/2 monostable solenoid valve designed for pneumatic control systems requiring reliable directional switching. It operates on 12V DC with a 1.8 W coil and suits engineers building or maintaining automated machinery.

Pressure Range and Flow Limits

The valve handles operating pressures from -0.9 bar to 10 bar with a standard nominal flow rate of 550 l/min and a pneumatic flow rate of 750 l/min. Pilot pressure must stay between 3 bar and 10 bar, while voltage fluctuations are tolerated from -15% to +10%.

Compact Build With LED Status

An 18 mm valve size allows dense manifold mounting in any orientation, and the piston gate design uses soft sealing for long service life. A non-detenting manual override and integrated LED signal display simplify commissioning and daily troubleshooting.

Questions about this item

How do I choose between the 550 l/min and 750 l/min flow figures?

The 750 l/min is the valve's standalone pneumatic flow rate; 550 l/min applies when mounted on an individual sub-base or in a pneumatically concatenated manifold — select based on your actual mounting method.

What does the 1.8 W coil rating mean for my 12 V DC supply?

The solenoid draws 1.8 W at 12 V DC; the supply must tolerate -15 % / +10 % voltage fluctuation and sustain the current continuously at 100 % duty cycle.

What limits does the G1/8 porting and external pilot supply impose?

The valve uses G1/8 connections with an external pilot air port requiring 3 to 10 bar pilot pressure; operating pressure range is -0.9 to 10 bar, so both main and pilot supplies must stay within these limits.
