Supplied without coil: requires Type 5 coil
Connector type: requires CNE large 

The 161 series is a range of 2-way normally closed direct acting dry armature solenoid valves. This series features an Acetal copolymer body, with 8mm hosetail connections. The armature tube is produced in stainless steel.

The moving and fixed armatures are made from magnetic stainless steel with the return spring also produced in stainless steel.

The armature seal and armature tube O-rings are supplied in silicone.

The maximum allowable pressure for most media is 2 bar.

The valve body is equipped with four M3 threaded mounting holes, for ease of integration into product design. The preferred mounting position for these coil is with the coil vertical above. 

Options (call Beta Valve sales office for details):

UL certified coils

Example product code: E161PS8///20E - Coil 230V 50/60Hz

ACL's standard Type 5coils are compatible with the 161 series , these coils offer a choice of standard direct current and operating voltages from 12V to 48V (DC) and 380V (AC). These coils are designed for continuous duty (100%ED) at the rated maximum ambient temperature.

ACL produce both class F and class H coils to fit the Series 161, these coils are continuously rated with ED=100%, when fitted with the Class F coils the ambient temperature range is: -10°C +55°C with class H coil the maximum ambient temperature is +80°C.
