The SHAKO SPU225A-03 is a high-flow 3/8" 316 stainless steel 2/2 way normally closed solenoid valve for industrial fluid, water, air and compatible gas control applications.
Its pressure-assisted diaphragm design provides a large 13mm orifice and Kv flow factor of 40 L/min, making it suitable for applications where higher flow is required and a minimum 0.5 Bar pressure differential is available.
Manufactured from corrosion-resistant 316 stainless steel with stainless steel internals, the SPU225A-03 is particularly suitable for RO water, demineralised water, pure water, AdBlue, chemicals and other compatible aggressive or high-purity fluids. Options include WRAS approved EPDM seals, oxygen-service degreasing and ATEX-certified coils.
Valve Function & Operation
Function: 2/2 way normally closed
Operation: Pressure-assisted diaphragm
Minimum Operating Differential: 0.5 Bar
Operating Pressure: 0.5 to 10 Bar differential
Maximum Working Pressure: 15 Bar
The valve is closed when de-energised and opens when electrical power is applied to the solenoid coil.
Ports & Flow
Port Size: 3/8" BSPP female
Optional Threads: NPT or Rc
Orifice Size: 13.0mm
Kv Flow Factor: 40 L/min based on water with 1 Bar pressure drop
Construction & Materials
Body Material: 316 stainless steel
Internal Components: Stainless steel
Standard Seal: FKM (Viton®)
Optional Seals:
EPDM
NBR
HNBR
WRAS approved EPDM seal option available for potable water applications.
Shading Ring Options
Standard Shading Ring: Copper
Optional Silver Shading Ring: Suitable for AC or DC configurations
Optional No Shading Ring: DC operation, or AC supply using a suitable rectified AC-to-DC DIN connector
These alternative configurations can be useful for high-purity and chemically sensitive applications where copper contact with the controlled media is undesirable.
