Festo
8172840
Solenoid valve VUVG-L18-P53U-T-G14-1H2L-F1A
The Festo 8172840 is an electrical piston gate valve featuring a 5/3-way pressurized valve function, an 18 mm valve size, and a normal nominal flow rate of 1000 l/min normalized to DIN 1343. Operating at 24V DC within a pressure range of 0.3 MPa to 0.8 MPa (3 bar to 8 bar), this component utilizes a soft sealing principle, internal pilot air supply, and an adjustable exhaust air function. It includes a mechanical spring reset method, detenting, non-detenting, and covered manual override options, and holds RCM compliance along with c UL us recognition under UL certificate MH19482 with an IP40 degree of protection.

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.
