ASCO 8221G5 2-Way Normally Closed Solenoid Valve Overview
The ASCO 8221G5 is a heavy-duty, 2-way normally closed solenoid valve engineered for reliable water control in demanding HVAC, plumbing, and industrial applications. With a pilot-operated, slow-closing design, this valve minimizes water hammer and pressure surges — protecting downstream equipment and extending system life. The brass body and NBR (Buna-N) seals deliver excellent resistance to water and a wide range of compatible media, while the NEMA 4 enclosure rating ensures dependable performance in wet or wash-down environments.
