Festo MFH-5-1/4-B 5/2-Way Monostable Solenoid Valve

Model Identifier MFH-5-1/4-B
Official Part Number 15901
GTIN Standard 4052568002886

Technical Overview

The Festo MFH-5-1/4-B (part number 15901) is a 5/2-way monostable, electrically actuated directional control valve. Engineered with a durable poppet seat design and internal pilot air supply, it delivers a robust standard nominal flow rate of 1300 l/min. The valve supports an operating pressure range of 2 to 10 bar (0.2 to 1 MPa) and features a mechanical spring reset. Designed for industrial pneumatic automation, it utilizes G1/4 pneumatic ports and requires a separately ordered F-type solenoid coil for electrical connection.

Key Features

  • 5/2-way monostable valve function with electrical actuation
