Product Description P/N: MVH-5/3G-3/8-B
Description
The Festo MVH-5/3G-3/8-B is an electrically actuated pneumatic directional control valve designed to regulate compressed-air flow in industrial automation systems. Its 5/3-way, closed-center configuration provides three switching positions, with all main ports closed in the center position, helping hold a pneumatic actuator in position when the valve is centered.

Information About MVH-5/3G-3/8-B
The MVH-5/3G-3/8-B belongs to Festo’s MVH series of pilot-operated pneumatic solenoid valves and has manufacturer part number 14944. It features G3/8 threaded connections for all five main pneumatic ports and an internal pilot air supply. The valve uses a piston-spool design with mechanical spring return and a non-detenting manual override for operation during setup or maintenance. Its die-cast aluminum housing and NBR seals are designed for industrial compressed-air applications.
Key Features:
-
5/3-Way Closed-Center Function: Provides three positions, with all main ports closed in the center position.
-
Electrical Actuation: Enables automated directional control through an electrical signal.
-
Pilot-Operated Design: Uses internal pilot air to actuate the main valve mechanism.
-
G3/8 Pneumatic Connections: Supports connection to compatible industrial compressed-air circuits.
-
High Nominal Flow Rate: Provides a standard nominal flow rate of 2,200 L/min.
-
Mechanical Spring Return: Returns the valve spool according to its specified switching arrangement.
-
Manual Override: Allows non-locking manual actuation for setup and troubleshooting.
-
Durable Construction: Features a die-cast aluminum housing and NBR seals.
The MVH-5/3G-3/8-B provides dependable pneumatic directional control for industrial machinery, cylinder actuation, production automation, and material-handling systems.
