Product Overview
The FESTO CPE14-M1BH-5/3GS-1/8 is a compact 5/3-way pneumatic solenoid valve from the Festo CPE series, engineered for precise directional control of compressed air in industrial automation and process systems. Featuring a 5/3-way spool configuration with a closed mid-position, this valve provides reliable switching, holding, and exhausting functions for double-acting actuators and pneumatic drive systems. Its 1/8-inch port connection and compact CPE14 body design make it an ideal solution for space-constrained control cabinets, valve terminals, and manifold assemblies where fast response and repeatable switching behavior are essential. As a direct-acting solenoid valve, it delivers consistent performance across a wide operating pressure range and is fully compatible with Festo’s modular pneumatic control architecture.
