When to Upgrade from Standard 4V210-08 to High-Temp Models

Thermal Limits: Beyond the Standard 70C for 4V210-08

The standard Airtac 4V210-08 is rated up to 70°C (158°F). But what if your application—like plastic curing or industrial ovens—exceeds this?

1. The Danger Zone

Above 70°C, the factory grease begins to thin and leak out, and the NBR seals lose their "memory," causing them to flatten and leak. The solenoid coil's resistance also rises, reducing its magnetic pulling power.

2. The High-Temp Solution

If your environment is consistently 80°C-120°C, you must upgrade to a 4V210-08 variant with **Viton (FKM) seals** and a High-Temperature Coil. These specialized versions ensure that the valve maintains its 5/2 way logic without melting under pressure. Contact Airtac-Shop.com for specialized high-heat pneumatic solutions.
