Burkert Type 6128-C-1.5 3/2 Way Rocker Solenoid Valve 12VDC

The Burkert Type 6128-C-1.5 is a compact 3/2-way rocker solenoid valve designed for precise control of neutral gases and liquids in analytical, medical, and industrial applications. This valve features a rocker principle that ensures reliable switching with minimal power consumption and no fluid contamination, making it ideal for use in laboratory equipment, inkjet printing, and pneumatic systems. Key benefits include its small footprint, low energy use (1W power consumption), and high cycle life exceeding 10 million operations. It offers excellent media separation, preventing leaks and ensuring hygienic performance. Compared to similar solenoid valves from competitors like ASCO or Festo, the Burkert 6128 provides superior vibration resistance and faster response times (under 20ms), though it may have a higher initial cost. Drawbacks include limited pressure range for high-demand applications and the need for clean media to avoid clogging the 1.5mm orifice. The unit appears new in original packaging based on provided images, with no visible wear, and includes a spare part or seal in a bag. Model decoding indicates 'C' for flange mounting, '1.5' for orifice size. For detailed specs, refer to the official Burkert datasheet (available at https://www.burkert.com/en/type/6128). Estimated market price for new units ranges from $60-90 USD based on recent online listings from suppliers like Radwell and eBay.
