Goyen pilot solenoid enclosures, 3-8V, RCA3 and RCA5 part numbers

A Goyen pilot solenoid enclosure converts the low-power signal from a sequencer or PLC into the air pulse that opens a remote RCA diaphragm valve. Enclosures are ordered by station count and coil voltage, and the old M-numbers are still stamped on many installed units, so both codes are listed here.

Family: 3-8V / RCA3 / RCA5 (Goyen)

How to select

Count the stations, not the valves

One station drives one RCA valve. An 8 station 3-8V8110 enclosure therefore serves eight valves; larger collectors use several enclosures wired to the same controller.

AC or DC

The last digits separate the coil supply: -330 and -331 are 200/240 V AC, -336 and -532 are 24 V DC. A 24 V DC enclosure is the usual choice when the outputs come straight from a PLC or safe extra-low-voltage cabinet.

Hazardous dust areas

The 3-8V8110 enclosures are supplied in a die-cast aluminium NEMA 4 / IP66 housing and are ATEX II 3GD and UKEX certified for Zone 22 dust atmospheres, so they can stay outdoors on the filter roof.

Frequently asked questions

Is M1547 the same as 3-8V8110-330?

Yes. M1547 is the legacy Goyen code for the 200/240 V AC 8 station pilot solenoid enclosure now sold as 3-8V8110-330. M1546 is the same enclosure in 24 V DC, now 3-8V8110-336.

Can I replace an old enclosure without changing the piping?

Yes, when you order the same part number and voltage. The mounting, air connections and station count are unchanged, so it is a direct swap with no rewiring or repiping.

Which repair kit fits these pilots?

K0300 services the pilots inside 3-8V, 3-5V and 3-6VFD enclosures. K0380 and K0580 cover CA and 3FD12 pilot solenoids.

Stations, voltage and legacy codes

Pilot enclosures are ordered by the number of valves they drive and by coil supply. Many installed units still carry the old M-number, listed here next to the current part number.
