Festo JMFH-5/2-D-1-C 150980 5/2 Bistable Solenoid Valve ISO 5599-1

Festo JMFH-5/2-D-1-C is a 5/2-way, double-solenoid (bistable) pneumatic directional control valve mounted on a sub‑base to ISO 5599‑1 (size 1). Its robust, die‑cast aluminium housing and soft‑sealing principle make it suitable for compressed air systems in industrial automation. The piston gate valve design is piloted and works non‑reversibly. An optional flow control on the exhaust ports can be used to adjust the piston speed. The IP65 protection rating ensures reliable operation in demanding industrial environments. The valve body is delivered without solenoid coils or plug sockets; these must be ordered separately.

Applications:

• Directional control of double‑acting pneumatic cylinders

• Pneumatic drives for assembly and packaging machines

• Conveyor systems and material handling in factory automation

• Use in OEM equipment when compact, bistable 5/2‑way valves are required

System Integration:

• The valve belongs to the Festo JMFH series of ISO 5599‑1 valves.

• It is designed for mounting on a sub‑base with through‑holes or on a manifold using ISO size 1 mounting pattern.

• The electrical connection is made via F‑type solenoid coils (Order them separately, e.g. 24 V, 110 V, 230 V depending on plant standard). A suitable 3‑pin plug socket (industrial pattern B, IP65) also must be ordered separately.
