This is a SY3000 series valve with the following features:

2 position
Dual coil
Internal pilot
12vdc coil voltage
Built in 300mm long lead wire electrical connection
No indicator light or surge suppressor
Non locking manual override
No sub plate (base)

Same as Festo solenoid provided in the kit. For a double solenoid you need:

Solenoid: SY3240-6H

Manifold: SY3000-27-1T (Mandatory)
http://www.pneuaire.com/sy3000-27-1t.html
fyi

SY3240-6 is the important part

H is not necessarily the only option you have here (in case the company you are consulting with is out of stock)

G, L, LZ are suitable replacements, the last bit just describes the wiring options
