IMI 8672400.8406.11049 Direct Acting Solenoid Valve - IP65
Part Number: 8672400.8406.11049
Quick Summary
Direct acting solenoid valve for gases and liquids provides precise isolation in compact pneumatic and hydraulic circuits. In systems with low or fluctuating pressure, many valves struggle with chatter or incomplete seals, leading to energy waste and downtime. This valve delivers IP65 protection with a brass body and PTFE seat, designed for 0 to 60 °C and 0 to 16 bar, and compatible with vacuum where required. It combines a robust NC 2/2 configuration with reliable actuation, enabling predictable performance. For automation and maintenance teams, this translates to easier installation, reduced leak opportunities, and safer, more efficient process control in industrial environments.

FAQs
Install with the G1 threaded port using appropriate sealant or tape, ensure clean mating surfaces, and orient the coil so electrical connections are accessible. Verify 2/2 NC configuration and observe correct electrical wiring for the 8406 coil. After mounting, confirm leak-free operation at low pressure and test in vacuum-capable sections when applicable.
This valve is rated for gases and liquids with an operating temperature range of 0 to 60 °C (32 to 140 °F) and operating pressure from 0 to 16 bar. It supports vacuum environments and is suitable for washdown-rated installations thanks to IP65 enclosure protection.
Yes. The valve features IP65 enclosure protection, brass body durability, and PTFE seat seals, making it robust for washdown environments and demanding factory floor applications in automation and process lines.
The direct-acting design does not rely on differential pressure to operate, ensuring consistent actuation even when pressure is unstable. Combined with its high-flow G1 port and vacuum compatibility, it reduces cycle time and minimizes leak risk in variable-pressure networks.
