Solenoid Valves

LFY Series 2- & 3-Way Isolation Solenoid Valve

This chemically inert internal pinch-tube valve is available in 2-way and 3-way configurations with zero dead volume. Intended for applications flowing aggressive fluids, it features a unique internal pinch-block design which isolates the fluid path and minimizes internal volume. For direct connection to threaded tubing assemblies, chose from our low volume 062 MINSTAC version, or ¼-28 version (both available in FFKM). A threaded manifold mount version of the valve is also available (in FKM). Typical applications include hematology, urinalysis, and flow cytometry.

1Typical cycle life on water; actual cycle life will vary depending on application conditions.
2Typical response time based on air flow at 10 psig, 2 Hz, 65°F. Response times are application dependent and can be enhanced with the use of high speed drive circuits.
3To ensure solenoid coil temperatures remain within specification, duty cycle limitations may be required. Contact The Lee Company for recommendations specific to your application. 4Models listed in part number table come standard with contact pins. Lead wires or a locking end cap connector are also available upon request.
