C15 Series – NAMUR Mounted 3/2 & 5/2 Solenoid Valve
Product Overview
The C15 Series is a pilot-operated pneumatic solenoid valve designed for direct mounting onto quarter-turn actuators using NAMUR standard mounting dimensions.
The valve can be configured as either a 3/2 or 5/2 function and is available with both internal and external pilot options. Single solenoid spring-return and dual solenoid stay-put configurations are available, allowing the valve to be tailored to a variety of actuator control requirements.

Product Benefits
The NAMUR mounting arrangement eliminates the need for additional pneumatic tubing between the actuator and valve, reducing installation complexity and minimising potential leak paths.
Multiple operating configurations allow the same valve platform to be used for both spring-return and double-acting actuator applications, helping standardise plant equipment and simplify maintenance.
The availability of both internal and external pilot operation provides flexibility for applications with varying system pressures and operating requirements.
