Asco is one of the established and well-known brands in the design and manufacturing of fluid control equipment. This brand is particularly recognized for producing industrial solenoid valves for controlling air, gas, water, steam, oil, and other fluids in various industries.

Asco products are used in systems where fast, precise, and reliable flow control is important. The brand's solenoid valves are utilized in applications such as production lines, gas delivery equipment, steam systems, industrial machinery, pneumatic equipment, and process control systems.

The ASCO brand has been part of Emerson since 1985, and today its products in fluid control and industrial automation are offered under the Asco name.

Common ASCO Products

Asco Solenoid Valves

ASCO solenoid valves are designed to open and close or control the flow path of fluids. These products are produced in various two-way, three-way, and multi-way models, which are selected based on fluid type, working pressure, operating temperature, connection size, and coil voltage.

Asco Gas Solenoid Valves

ASCO gas solenoid valves are used to control gas flow in industrial equipment, burners, furnaces, and gas supply systems. When selecting these products, it is essential to consider the type of gas, working pressure, flow capacity, connection size, and safety requirements of the installation site.

Asco Steam Solenoid Valves

The brand's steam solenoid valves are designed for high-temperature and high-pressure applications. The correct model selection depends on factors such as steam temperature, working pressure, body material, sealing type, and flow capacity.

Water and Air Solenoid Valves

ASCO solenoid valves are also used for controlling water, compressed air, and some general fluids. These products are employed in washing systems, pneumatic lines, industrial machinery, and automation equipment.

Pneumatic Valves and Air Control Equipment

ASCO's product range also includes pneumatic equipment and compressed air control systems, such as:

• Directional control valves
• Spool valves
• Pneumatic manifolds
• Pneumatic cylinders and actuators
• Air preparation equipment
• Accessory equipment for pneumatic systems

Benefits of Using ASCO Solenoid Valves

• Diverse models for controlling various fluids
• Applicable in general and industrial use
• Fast and reliable performance
• Availability of models suitable for high pressure and temperature
• Special models for hazardous environments
• Choice of coils with different voltages
• Designed for use in automation and process control equipment

Some ASCO models are produced for explosive environments and may have certifications such as ATEX or IECEx. The presence of these certifications should be confirmed for the specific model and technical code, as in industrial equipment, a single letter in the technical code can sometimes be more important than a paragraph!

Guide for Selecting ASCO Solenoid Valves

To select the appropriate ASCO solenoid valve, specify the following information:

1. Type of fluid: gas, water, steam, air, oil, or other fluid
2. Number of paths: two-way, three-way, or multi-way
3. Working mode: normally open or normally closed
4. Size and type of connection
5. Minimum and maximum working pressure
6. Fluid and ambient temperature
7. Coil voltage; such as 24V DC or 220V AC
8. Body material and sealing
9. Protection rating and environmental conditions
10. Need for anti-explosion certification or specific standards

To ensure product compatibility, selection should be based on the complete code listed on the valve's nameplate or body, not just the general ASCO name.

Applications of ASCO Products

ASCO products are used in various industries and equipment:

• Oil, gas, and petrochemical industries
• Power plants and energy facilities
• Production lines and industrial machinery
• Industrial furnaces and burners
• Steam and heating systems
• Pneumatic equipment
• Food and pharmaceutical industries
• Water and purification systems
• Ventilation and process control equipment
• Dust collection systems

Purchasing ASCO Products from Negar Sanat Mahan

When purchasing ASCO solenoid valves, verifying the authenticity of the product, technical code, country of origin, coil specifications, and product compatibility with the fluid is of great importance. At Negar Sanat Mahan, you can review various models of ASCO solenoid valves according to fluid type, pressure, connection size, and required voltage.

For more accurate selection, it is better to provide the technical code of the product, an image of the nameplate, the type of fluid, and working conditions to the sales expert.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which country manufactures ASCO products?

ASCO is an international brand owned by Emerson, and its products are manufactured in various factories. The manufacturing country should be verified based on the nameplate and specifications of the specific model.

Does ASCO only produce solenoid valves?

No. ASCO's primary focus is on solenoid valves and fluid control, but it also offers pneumatic products, directional control valves, manifolds, and equipment related to compressed air control.

Are ASCO solenoid valves suitable for gas?

Yes, ASCO has various models for gas control; however, the suitability of each model depends on gas type, pressure, temperature, size, operation mode, and safety requirements.

What is the difference between ASCO water and steam solenoid valves?

Steam valves must be designed for higher temperatures and more demanding working conditions. Therefore, a water solenoid valve should not be used for steam; doing so may damage the sealing or cause improper valve operation.

How do we select the appropriate ASCO model?

By reviewing the type of fluid, pressure, temperature, connection size, number of paths, normal open or normal closed state, and coil voltage. The best final reference is the complete product code and datasheet for the specific model.
