Product Overview
The PARKER VA13-KS4 (part number 12027234) is a direct-acting pneumatic solenoid valve engineered for precise control of compressed air and neutral gases in industrial process circuits. As a member of Parker’s VA series of general process and pneumatic valves, the VA13-KS4 utilizes a solenoid-actuated poppet or spool mechanism to deliver fast, repeatable switching of media flow without requiring a minimum pilot pressure. Its compact body design, robust coil insulation, and corrosion-resistant internal components make it a reliable choice for integration into automated pneumatic manifolds, actuator control lines, and process automation skids where dependable on/off or directional control is essential.
