Multifunction solenoid valve

The Nereus Model HK5 multifunction single solenoid valve has multiple porting configurations that allow its use as a standard fill/exhaust, two-way or three-way, either normally open or normally closed, or as a selector or diverter. It features a diaphragm-poppet valve design that has no sliding seals and no metal-to-metal contact, and requires no lubrication. A direct-acting solenoid with an isloated coil has minimal armature travel, for fast response and rapid cycling. Voltages are 4.5, 12, or 24 Vdc, with alternate low-power versions of <1 W, any voltage. Valves have a vacuum/pressure range of 28 in. Hg-100 psig and are rated for temperatures from 32-125?F (0-50?C). Humphrey Products Co., Kalamazoo, MI; ph 616/381-5500, fax 616/381-4113.
