CompAir CMMC513-425 Pneumatic Solenoid Valve

The CompAir CMMC513-425 is a robust pneumatic solenoid valve designed for directional control in compressed air systems. This model appears to be a 5/2-way monostable valve based on port labeling (1: Pressure, 2/4: Working Ports, 3/5: Exhaust, 14: Pilot), suitable for applications in industrial automation, manufacturing, and process control where reliable switching of air flow is required. It features a compact aluminum body with quick-connect fittings for easy installation and maintenance. Key benefits include high durability in harsh environments, fast response times, and compatibility with standard pneumatic systems. Drawbacks may include the need for external solenoid actuation (not visible in images, possibly detached) and potential wear in high-cycle operations. Compared to similar valves from competitors like Festo or SMC, the CompAir offers cost-effective performance with a maximum pressure rating of 10 bar, making it ideal for medium-pressure tasks. The unit in the images shows signs of use, including minor dirt and attached fittings, but no visible damage, suggesting it's in good working condition for refurbishment or spare parts. Applications include pneumatic cylinders, actuators, and conveyor systems. For detailed specs, refer to manufacturer datasheets; model decoding indicates 'CMMC' series for compact modular valves, '513' likely denoting 5/3 configuration variant, and '425' possibly specifying port size or options (exact decoding requires CompAir guide). Estimated dimensions based on image scaling with pen (approx. 5.5 inches long).
