Official Part Number 161725
GTIN Standard 4052568012427

Technical Overview

The Festo 161725 (Model MN1H-2-1/4-MS) is a professional-grade 2/2-way normally closed (NC) electrically actuated pneumatic diaphragm valve. Constructed with a robust brass housing and soft sealing mechanisms, it operates reliably within a medium pressure range of 0.5 to 10 bar. Designed for in-line installation with a G1/4 process connection, this pilot-actuated monostable valve delivers a high standard nominal flow rate of 2,000 l/min. It achieves rapid actuation with a 30 ms switch-on time and 100 ms switch-off time. Suitable for filtered compressed air (200 µm filtration) and capable of functioning in ambient and medium temperatures ranging from -10 °C to 60 °C, the valve meets IP65 protection standards when paired with a compatible DIN EN 175301-803 plug socket.

Key Features

  • 2/2-way, normally closed (NC), monostable pilot-actuated operation.
  • Constructed with a highly durable brass housing and soft-sealing NBR diaphragm.
  • Standard G1/4 pneumatic connection for straightforward in-line installation.
  • Fast switching dynamics with 30 ms switch-on and 100 ms switch-off times.
  • Compatible with standard N1 solenoid coils including 24V DC, 110V AC, and 230V AC.
  • Achieves IP65 degree of protection when utilizing the specified DIN EN plug socket.

Delivers an exceptional 2000 l/min standard nominal flow rate in a compact 13mm nominal size G1/4 brass body with rapid 30 ms actuation.
