- A solenoid valve is an electrically activated valve, typically used to control the flow or direction of air or liquid in fluid power systems.
- Solenoid valves are used in both pneumatic and hydraulic fluid power systems.
- The plunger slides within a core tube of non-ferrous metal, which itself is surrounded by a coil of electrical windings.
- The coil can exist as any range of voltage from 12-48 V DC to 110-220 V AC.
- Solenoid operated valves commonly work at 24 V DC or 110 V
DC Solenoid |
AC Solenoid |
It is quieter |
Direct operation with line voltage |
Less wear of solenoid core |
Tendency to hum |
High Solenoid holding force |
Risk of burn out of the solenoid coil if solenoid core is jammed |
Same pick-up and holding power |
Faster switching speed than DC solenoids |
Simple design (No shading ring required to avoid humming) |
