Universal directional control valves
Magnetic valves additional program
The Festo magnetic valve supplementary program contains complementary solenoid valve types outside the main Tiger 2000 and Tiger Classic series. The range includes 3/2- and 5/2-way solenoid valves in small nominal bores: BMCH-3-3-1/8 (3/3-way, bistable), MC-2-1/8, MCH-3-1/8, MFH-2-M5 and MFH-3-M5 (2/2 and 3/2-way, M5 port), as well as MOCH-3-1/8 and MOFH-3-M5. The program covers 8 articles in total.
These types suit specific switching and control functions where standard 5/2-way valves are not required, such as 2/2 shut-off functions (MFH-2-M5) or small-flow switching at the M5 port.

How to choose Magnetic valves additional program
What matters when choosing: properties, comparison and typical applications.
Type overview - supplementary program
| Type | Function | Port | Actuation |
|---|---|---|---|
| BMCH-3-3-1/8 | 3/3-way | G1/8 | Bistable, double coil |
| MC-2-1/8 | 2/2-way | G1/8 | Solenoid actuated |
| MCH-3-1/8 | 3/2-way | G1/8 | Solenoid actuated |
| MFH-2-M5 | 2/2-way | M5 | Solenoid actuated |
| MFH-3-M5 | 3/2-way | M5 | Solenoid actuated |
| MFH-3-1/8-SEU | 3/2-way | G1/8 | Separately exhausted |
| MOCH-3-1/8 | 3/2-way | G1/8 | Solenoid actuated, NC |
| MOFH-3-M5 | 3/2-way | M5 | Solenoid actuated, NC |
Selection criteria
Key selection factors from the supplementary program are the required valve function and port size. For simple shut-off (2/2-way), MC-2-1/8 and MFH-2-M5 are available. Small-flow switching at M5 is covered by MFH-3-M5 and MOFH-3-M5. Bistable 3/3-way switching requires the BMCH-3-3-1/8. Separate exhaust (MFH-3-1/8-SEU) is relevant for aggressive media or cleanroom-critical areas.
Typical applications
Typical applications: Small-flow switching points with M5 connection in compact pneumatic systems, 2/2 shut-off functions in vacuum circuits and media lines, bistable holding circuits (BMCH), and applications requiring separate exhaust in cleanroom and medical environments.
