- Following industry requests for a low maintenance, direct operated 2 port solenoid valve with long life performance, our R&D engineers have answered the challenge with our new Series VXK, with its unique in-built filter. Designed to improve valve performance and to stop leakage, the VXK´s integral stainless steel 100 mesh filter unit, effectively removes any foreign matter in the circulating fluids thereby protecting downstream equipment and, at the same time, ensuring longer valve life. Further benefits of this space saving design are realized in the reduced time required for maintenance as the Y shaped filter can be easily removed without the need to disassemble piping. Series VXK is interchangeable in port size and voltage with our popular VX2 Solenoid range and shares many of the same performance features. Available in both AC or DC power options and both closed and open valve types, the VXK has IP65 enclosure accreditation and is ideal for use with air, water, oil or steam at pressures up to 3.0MPa and with fluid between -20 to +60ºC.
