Also, the max port size is limited to 1/8" npt- this valve port is M7 (> 1/4").
But it should be available in a 1/8" version.
Good luck.

Cv to LPM is not a direct conversion. Get the real number from the manufacturer for that specific valve. You will not be able to compete with an "approximate" Cv.

Do you a solenoid that would be legal and similar the one provided in KOP
sorry for the trouble.
Thank you again

zoisite,
Your valves
MUST meet the above requirements (and all other pneumatic requirements in the rulebook).
You'll need a spec sheet on any valve that was not in the KoP to prove that it complies with the above rule.
