Festo 5/2 Monostable Solenoid Valve Electrical VUVG Series

The Festo VUVG-B18-M52-MZT-F-1P3 is a 5/2-way monostable solenoid valve designed to control the direction of compressed air in pneumatic systems. It is commonly used to operate double-acting cylinders that require a stable switching position, and the valve returns automatically when power is removed. This valve belongs to the VUVG series, known for its compact design and dependable switching performance in industrial automation applications.

How It Benefits Users

This is a monostable valve, meaning it switches when the solenoid is energised and returns to its default position via a spring. That behaviour is helpful in applications that require a defined fail-safe position.

• 5/2 function for double-acting actuators.
• Spring returns to the default position.
• Electrically actuated solenoid control.
• Provides predictable airflow control.

Reliable Directional Control Valve for Pneumatic Systems

The VUVG-B18 body size makes this valve suitable for tight installation spaces. It can be mounted directly on manifolds or integrated into valve terminals, helping keep pneumatic layouts clean and organised. Its construction is designed for continuous industrial use, handling repeated switching cycles without performance loss.
