General Description

Standard ASCO solenoid valves will meet the needs of most applications. However, there are times when fluids must be handled at higher temperatures, in less than
ideal ambient locations, when the fluids themselves are hostile, etc.
For this reason, ASCO offers a wide range of options which can help tailor new valves to your precise applications. Specifying these options when you order is easy. Simply attach the proper prefix (electrical options)
or suffix (construction options) to the basic catalog number.
