High Performance Solenoid Valve Type 6240

Engineers and maintenance teams seeking to minimise machinery size and process space without sacrificing performance can now turn to the Bürkert Type 6240 Solenoid Valve. This solenoid valve is extremely compact with relatively high flow characteristics making it versatile for universal application.

The Type 6240 Solenoid Valve is a high performance unit suitable for liquid, gas and steam processes. The valve delivers flow up to 0.6m3 per hour with media ranging -40º to +180ºC and to 40 bar, covering most standard application conditions.

Smaller than other universal solenoid valves, the Type 6240 Solenoid Valve reaches 0.6m3 per hour flow with the ¼" BSP version measuring just 32mm x  67mm x 45mm.

The valve opens with zero pressure differential and although an assisted type solenoid valve, has been engineered with the performance characteristics of a direct acting unit. 

"Compact size, robust life cycle and capacity to handle most processes make this solenoid valve is an off-the-shelf 'spec-and-forget' alternative," said Bürkert's Chris Hoey.

The Type 6240 Solenoid Valve is available in brass or stainless steel, with a variety of seal materials based on media. All internal parts are made of high quality stainless steel, brass or engineered thermoplastics.
