Description
3/8" Brass Steam Solenoid Valve – Shako PU225S-03
High Temperature Brass Steam Solenoid Valve – 10 Bar, +180°C
The SHAKO PU225S-03 is a compact 3/8" pressure-assisted 2/2 way normally closed brass solenoid valve designed specifically for steam and high-temperature fluid control applications.
Featuring a forged brass body, stainless steel internals, piston-assisted operation and PTFE sealing, the valve provides reliable control of steam up to 10 Bar and +180°C. It can also be used with air, water and compatible gases and fluids at pressures up to 15 Bar.
Its 13mm orifice provides high flow capacity from a compact valve, making the PU225S-03 particularly suitable for industrial steam systems, heating equipment, autoclaves, hot water systems and OEM machinery.

Why Choose the PU225S Steam Solenoid Valve?
Unlike a general-purpose solenoid valve adapted for higher temperatures, the SHAKO PU225S series uses a pressure-assisted piston design specifically suited to steam and hot fluid control.
The combination of PTFE sealing, stainless steel internals and Class H coil allows the standard valve to control steam at temperatures up to +180°C and pressures up to 10 Bar, while air, water and compatible gases can be controlled at pressures up to 15 Bar.
The pressure-assisted design requires only 0.5 Bar differential pressure while providing high flow through the 13mm orifice.
