12 V DC solenoid valve for air and inert gas

The Red Hat EF8314H301 is a stainless steel solenoid valve that operates on a 12 V DC supply. It uses a direct acting mechanism with a 3-way, 2-position design and a 1/16 in orifice. The coil enclosure is rated Explosion-Proof and Watertight with Class F insulation for indoor or outdoor use.

Suits systems needing configurable 3-way control

This valve fits pneumatic or inert gas circuits that require a 1/4 in NPTF connection and a maximum operating pressure differential of 130 psi. It is not for liquids or for applications that exceed 149 °F fluid temperature or need a larger flow path than the 1/16 in orifice provides.

1/4 in NPTF connection with 1/16 in orifice

The nominal pipe size is 1/4 in with NPTF inlet and outlet threads, while the orifice diameter is fixed at 1/16 in. These two dimensions determine whether the valve matches the required port size and flow capacity for the installation.

Questions about this item

How much heat does the 12V DC coil generate when the valve runs all day?

The Class F coil insulation is rated for continuous duty at the specified 149°F maximum fluid temperature, so the coil is designed to handle sustained operation without overheating.

What piping and electrical supplies must I already have to install this 1/4 in NPTF valve?

You need 1/4 inch NPTF threaded pipe connections for the inlet and outlet, plus a 1/2 inch conduit fitting to terminate the 18 inch coil leads.

Will the 130 psi pressure rating work with my existing low-pressure air compressor?

Yes, the valve operates from 0 psi minimum up to 130 psi maximum differential, so it is compatible with typical low-pressure shop air systems.
