MFH-5-1/4 6211vFesto Solenoid Valve Poppet Valve 5/2-way G1/4 Material seals NBR

Product Description:

The FESTO MFH/JMFH series, known in the industry as the "Tiger Valve" due to its strong and reliable performance, is a classic range of pneumatic solenoid valves. These valves are designed to provide high flow rates in a compact form, making them an excellent choice for various automation applications.

The MFH series consists of single solenoid valves with spring return, while the JMFH series features double solenoid valves with memory function. Both series are suitable for flexible mounting options, with direct installation on sub-bases or easy attachment to standardized ISO mounting interfaces such as PAL or PRS systems for modular valve terminal setups. They are the ideal solution for controlling cylinders, grippers, and other pneumatic actuators.

Features:

High Flow in Compact Design: Optimized internal flow paths ensure excellent flow characteristics (e.g., Cv values up to ~1.8 or higher) despite the very small build size, enabling fast cylinder cycle times.

Exceptional Flexibility & Modularity:

• Multiple Functions: Available as 5/2-way, 5/3-way, and 3/2-way valves.
• Versatile Mounting: Can be installed individually via threaded ports or quickly snapped onto standardized valve manifolds, allowing for easy creation of multi-valve control stations.
• Interchangeable Coils: Solenoid coils are available separately in a wide range of voltages (e.g., 24V DC, 110V AC, 230V AC) and types (e.g., standard, low-wattage, manual override), providing great electrical compatibility.

Robustness and Reliability:

• Durable metal body (e.g., aluminum) ensures longevity and resistance in harsh industrial environments.
• High IP65 protection rating (when used with appropriate connector) guards against dust and water jets.
• Broad Compatibility: Operates effectively within a standard pressure range of 0.15 MPa to 0.9 MPa (1.5 to 9 bar), suitable for most common pneumatic systems.

Applications:

The MFH/JMFH Tiger Valve series is known for its reliability and compact power, making it suitable for a wide range of industries.

In the realm of General Factory Automation, these valves are perfect for applications in assembly machines, material handling equipment, packaging machinery, and CNC systems where precise actuator control is essential.

Within the Automotive Manufacturing sector, the Tiger Valve series is commonly used in welding, clamping, pressing, and testing stations on production lines that demand high speed and reliability.

For the Plastics and Rubber Machinery industry, these valves are utilized to manage auxiliary functions in injection molding machines, blow molders, and robotic handlers.

In the Packaging and Food & Beverage Industry, the Tiger Valve series is a great choice for controlling actuators in filling, capping, labeling, and sorting machines, provided they meet specific material and certification requirements.
