Product Information
Full details
The Festo MS4-EE-1/4-10V24-S-Z is a professional-grade, electrically actuated 3/2-way shut-off valve designed for industrial pneumatic systems that require precise control over pressurization and venting. It is an ideal solution for facility engineers and maintenance teams seeking reliable, compact airflow management, though users should note that it requires a specific 24V DC power supply to operate its solenoid actuator.

FAQs
What is the maximum operating pressure for this valve?
The operating pressure range is 4 to 10 bar.
Can I use this valve with 12V DC?
No, this model is specifically designed for 24V DC electrical actuation.
What thread size does this valve use?
This model features a G1/4 connection.
Is the solenoid included?
Yes, the MS4-EE includes the electrical solenoid actuator as part of the unit.
How do I reduce the noise when the valve exhausts?
You can attach a pneumatic muffler to port 3 to dampen the sound of escaping air.
What is the width of the valve?
The valve is 40 mm wide, designed to be compact for tight installations.
Troubleshooting
Valve fails to actuate on signal
Verify that the 24V DC power supply is reaching the solenoid coil and check for loose terminal connections.
Visible air leak at port 3
Ensure the valve is fully seated and that the internal valve seal has not been damaged by contaminants in the air line.
Slow pressurization of the downstream system
Check the inlet pressure; if it is below 4 bar, the valve may not operate within its intended efficiency window.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- High flow rate of 2000 l/min ensures efficient pneumatic performance
- Compact 40mm width facilitates space-efficient installation
- Versatile exhaust options via Port 3 allow for noise mitigation
- Reliable electrical actuation for seamless automation integration
Cons
- Requires a steady 24V DC power source for solenoid operation
- Operating pressure range is limited strictly to 4 to 10 bar
- Not intended for non-pneumatic fluid applications
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Ensure that your air supply is clean and lubricated according to standard pneumatic practices to prevent internal seal degradation. The unit uses a G1/4 connection, so verify that your tubing and fittings are compatible with the G-thread standard.
- Installation: Mount the unit securely in the air line using appropriate thread sealant.
- Electrical: Connect the 24V DC power to the solenoid terminal block, ensuring polarity is observed if required by your specific connector type.
- Exhaust: Attach a silencer or exhaust hose to port 3 if the valve is located in an area where noise or exhaust air needs management.
- Maintenance: Periodically inspect the solenoid coil for signs of overheating and check the pneumatic connections for leaks after the first 24 hours of operation.
