Working Mechanism
- Solenoid valve consists of a coil, plunger, valve seat, and fluid passage.
- In the de-energised state, the spring-loaded plunger remains against the valve seat, blocking fluid flow.
- When the coil is charged, a magnetic field is generated, attracting the plunger and causing it to move away from the valve seat.
- This movement opens the passage, allowing fluid to flow as long as the coil remains energised.
- When the coil is de-energised, the spring force returns the plunger to its closed position, stopping fluid flow.
Features
- These direct-acting valves feature glass-filled nylon construction for improved tensile strength and stiffness.
- They have NEMA-rated coil enclosures for protection against water and dust.
- These normally open / closed solenoid valves offer Buna-N / EPDM seals to ensure leak-proof connection.
- They come with Class F coil insulation for improved electrical insulation and coil life.
- These valves can withstand pressures ranging from 0 to 250 psi.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the factors to consider when selecting a solenoid valve?
Major factors include the required flow rate and pressure, the type of fluid or gas being controlled, temperature, humidity, voltage and power consumption.
What is the response time of these solenoid valves?
They have a response time of 16 to 40 milliseconds (complete cycle).
