Festo Solenoid Valve MFH-5-1/4-S 10349 G1/4 Material seals NBR TPE-U(PU)

Product Description:

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

The MFH series consists of single solenoid valves (monostable) with spring return, while the JMFH series features double solenoid valves (bistable) with memory function. They are both engineered for easy mounting, either directly on a sub-base or onto standardized ISO mounting interfaces (such as PAL or PRS systems) for modular valve terminal configurations. These valves are the proven 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 highly versatile and reliable, making it suitable for a wide range of industries.

For General Factory Automation, these valves are ideal for applications such as assembly machines, material handling equipment, packaging machinery, and CNC systems that require precise actuator control.

In Automotive Manufacturing, the MFH/JMFH Tiger Valve series is commonly used in welding, clamping, pressing, and testing stations along production lines where speed and reliability are crucial.

For the Plastics and Rubber Machinery sector, these valves are employed to control auxiliary functions in injection molding machines, blow molders, and robotic handlers.

In the Packaging and Food & Beverage Industry, the MFH/JMFH Tiger Valve series is well-suited for controlling actuators in filling, capping, labeling, and sorting machines. However, specific material and certification requirements should be considered for these applications.
