01 — Overview

Pioneer Industries is an internationally recognized manufacturer, supplier, and exporter of high-performance 4 Port Double Solenoid Valves headquartered in Mumbai, India. Designed specifically for controlling double-acting pneumatic cylinders, rotary actuators, and heavy automation slides, these valves provide positive, memory-retaining directional control.

Equipped with dual solenoid actuators, the valve utilizes momentary electrical signals to alternate supply pressure between the two working cylinder ports (Ports 2 and 4). Once actuated by Solenoid 1, the valve locks in position mechanically and pneumatically until Solenoid 2 receives an excitation pulse. This bistable operation guarantees that heavy cylinder loads remain securely extended or retracted even during unexpected factory electrical outages.

Global Supply

Pioneer Industries manufacturing and exporting high-performance 4 Port Double Solenoid Valves worldwide.

Supplied to machine builders and automation system integrators in more than 85 countries, Pioneer 4 Port Double Solenoid Valves are precision-machined from extruded aluminium alloy with hard-anodized internal bores, or in cast CF8M / SS 316 stainless steel for chemical processing lines.

Our 4-port double solenoid series includes both 2-position bistable models and 3-position centered models (Closed Center, Exhaust Center, and Pressure Center). Engineered with low-friction elastomer spool seals and Class H insulated continuous-duty coils, these valves deliver superior cycle speeds, negligible internal crossover leakage, and long operational life.

02 — Product Detail

Description of 4 Port Double Solenoid Valve

A 4 Port Double Solenoid Valve (often configured as 4/2-way or 5/2-way / 5/3-way directional control) features Port 1 (Main Supply Pressure), Port 2 and Port 4 (Cylinder Forward and Retract Working Ports), and Port 3 / Port 5 (Exhaust Ports). When Solenoid A is energized, pressure routes to Port 2 while Port 4 exhausts through Port 3, driving the cylinder rod forward.

When Solenoid B is energized, the internal spool shifts across, routing pressure to Port 4 while Port 2 exhausts, retracting the actuator. Because the spool position is locked by the dual-pilot arrangement, no electrical current is consumed during steady-state holding, drastically reducing electrical energy consumption in continuous manufacturing plants.

Features 4 Port Double Solenoid Valve:

  • Bistable Directional Control: Double solenoid design maintains the commanded position even upon electrical power cutoff.
  • Complete Cylinder Control: Dual working ports (Ports 2 & 4) provide seamless forward, reverse, and mid-stroke positioning.
  • Energy-Efficient Pulsed Switching: Requires only brief 30 ms electrical pulses to actuate, eliminating constant electrical draw.
  • Hard-Anodized Aluminium Spool: Micro-finished internal bore and low-friction seals yield over 15 million trouble-free cycles.
  • Comprehensive Size Range: 1/8″, 1/4″, 3/8″, and 1/2″ BSPP and NPT port threads for versatile flow requirements.
  • 3-Position Center Options: Available in Closed Center (locks cylinder in place), Exhaust Center, and Pressure Center.
  • Independent Manual Overrides: Recessed or locking manual override buttons on both coil ends allow easy setup and test cycling.
  • Sub-base Gang Manifold Mounting: Mounts on modular aluminium manifold blocks with common supply and exhaust connections.
  • Explosion-Proof & Flameproof Options: Available with ATEX, IECEx, and PESO certified flameproof coil housings for hazardous areas.

Frequently Asked Questions about 4 Port Double Solenoid Valve

Technical guidance, sizing insights, and engineering answers for instrumentation engineers, automation system integrators, and procurement specialists sourcing Solenoid Valves from Pioneer Industries.

A 4-Port Double Solenoid Valve (4/2 or 5/2-way) is a directional pneumatic valve with two working ports (Ports 2 and 4), one supply port (Port 1), and exhaust ports. Dual solenoid coils alternate air pressure to extend or retract a double-acting cylinder, maintaining the cylinder in position without continuous electrical power.
In a 2-position bistable valve, the spool has only two positions (extended or retracted) and locks in whichever position was last pulsed. In a 3-position valve, internal centering springs return the spool to a middle neutral position (Closed Center blocks both cylinder ports to freeze motion, Exhaust Center vents both ports to allow manual floating) when both coils are off.
Because single solenoid valves require continuous electrical power to remain in their energized state, generating heat and consuming electricity constantly. Double solenoid valves require only a brief electrical pulse (30 to 50 ms) to shift and mechanically remain in that state with zero standby power consumption.
Pioneer 4-Port Double Solenoid Valves operate reliably across 2.5 to 10 kg/cm² (35 to 145 PSI). Flow ratings range from Kv 0.75 m³/h (Cv 0.85) on 1/8″ ports up to Kv 3.10 m³/h (Cv 3.50) on 1/2″ heavy-duty ports.
In a 2-position double solenoid valve, the valve remains in its current shifted position, meaning the pneumatic cylinder remains safely extended or retracted. This prevents accidental dropping of clamped parts or unexpected machine movements during power cuts.
Yes. All Pioneer 4-port valves support gang manifold assembly. Using standard multi-station aluminium manifold blocks, 2 to 16 valves can be mounted together with common supply and exhaust lines, dramatically reducing external piping and cabinet footprint.
Coils are available in 12VDC, 24VDC, 24VAC, 110VAC, and 230VAC (50/60Hz). Each coil consumes 6.5W DC / 8.5VA AC and is rated IP65 with DIN 43650 Form A/B plugs. For hazardous plant zones, ATEX and PESO flameproof Ex d IIC T6 coils are available.
Valves are factory pre-lubricated with high-grade synthetic grease and can operate with clean, dry, non-lubricated compressed air filtered to 40 microns (ISO 8573-1 Class 4). Once lubricated air is introduced, lubrication must be maintained.
Each valve is equipped with recessed, spring-return manual override push-pins at both ends. Slotted screwdriver locking overrides are also available for holding positions during machine commissioning and pneumatic leak checks.
Every valve is 100% factory tested for external and cross-port leakage, switching response time, and minimum pilot shift pressure under ISO 9001:2015 quality standards. Inspection reports and EN 10204 Type 3.1 certificates are supplied with every order.
