Festo
172940
On/off valve HEE-3/8-D-MINI-230
The Festo 172940 is an electrically actuated piston gate valve featuring a soft sealing principle, piloted control, and a 3/2-way closed monostable valve function with a positive overlap lap. Operating on a 230 V AC (50/60 Hz) coil with a 100% duty cycle, this component handles an operating pressure range of 0.25 MPa to 1.6 MPa and achieves a normal nominal flow rate of 1600 l/min for compressed air or inert gases. It incorporates a mechanical spring reset method, detenting manual override, non-throttleable exhaust air function, and a moderate corrosion resistance class (CRC 2) with RoHS-compliant materials.

Request a QuoteWhy no listed price?
Industrial and obsolete parts are priced per enquiry: the final price depends on available stock, condition, quantity, and your delivery destination, so a fixed list price would be misleading. Request a quote and we confirm current pricing, lead time, and sourcing options — including hard-to-find and discontinued Festo references — within one business day.
