18 mm 24 V DC pneumatic solenoid valve

This 18 mm valve uses a piston gate design with soft sealing and overlap lap. It operates on 24 V DC with a 100 % duty cycle and draws 1.0 W at 22 V DC. The unit weighs 147 g and works in any mounting position.

LED status display and flow control exhaust

A built-in LED shows the signal state for quick diagnostics. The exhaust port includes a flow control option so speed can be adjusted without extra fittings. Mechanical spring reset returns the valve to its default position when power is removed.

800 l/min nominal flow at 10 bar

The standard nominal flow rate of 800 l/min determines whether the valve can supply enough air for the actuator. Operating pressure spans -0.9 bar to 10 bar with pilot pressure between 2 bar and 8 bar. Buyers needing higher flow must choose a larger valve.

Questions about this item

How often should the mechanical spring reset mechanism be inspected or replaced on the VUVG-B18-T32U-MZT-F-1T1L?

The valve is rated for 100% duty cycle at up to 3 Hz switching frequency with 15 ms on and 25 ms off times, so the spring is designed for continuous operation without a specified replacement interval.

What limits continuous operation of this 18 mm solenoid valve first — coil heating or pilot pressure drop?

The coil runs at 1.0 W at 22 V DC with +/-10% voltage tolerance and 100% duty cycle, while pilot pressure must stay between 2 bar and 8 bar; either thermal rise or pilot supply loss can stop operation.

How much heat does the valve generate when energised all day at 24 V DC?

The coil draws 1.0 W at 22 V DC, so at 24 V DC power stays near 1 W; with ambient and medium temperatures rated -5 °C to 60 °C, heat output is low enough for continuous use.
