Wedge Body Solenoid Valves

What is Wedge Body Solenoid Valve?

The wedge body solenoid valve is an electromagnetic valve. This valve is a valve that can be opened and closed by creating a magnetic field. In this way, it can control the passage of a fluid from one region to another. It consists of body, sleeve, coil, diaphragm and core.

Solenoid Valves are manufactured in two types as normally closed (to open the closed valve when it receives energy from the coil) and normally open (to close the open valve when it receives energy from the coil).

Where Are Wedge Body Solenoid Valves Used?

Wedge body solenoid valves are generally used in hydraulic and pneumatic systems. These systems are usually found in machinery and equipment and are used to control the movement of these devices.

Suggestions

Mount the solenoid valve so that the coil is up. In the installation, such as a strainer before the solenoid valve, etc. use filters. We use more durable diaphragm and gasket material for high temperatures. Specify your diaphragm and gasket request for high temperature in your orders.

What is a Normally Closed Solenoid Valve?

Normally Closed Solenoid valve initially allows the passage of fluid. In order for the valve to open, the coil moves with the electric current coming to the coil, pulls the core upwards and opens the mouth of the orifice hole, and thus, the fluid under high pressure advances to the outlet quickly from the bypass hole. With this progress, the pressure inside drops very quickly and a pressure difference occurs inside. Due to this difference, the diaphragm overcomes the spring force and rises upwards and fluid passage is allowed, so the valve is in the open position. All this happens in a very short time. Our product is designed to get the best efficiency.

What is a Normally Open Solenoid Valve?

Normally Open Solenoid valve initially allows the passage of fluid. In order to close the valve, the coil moves with the electric current coming to the coil, pushing the core down and closing the mouth of the orifice hole, and in this case, the pressure inside increases gradually and pushes the diaphragm down and closes the orifice through which the fluid passes. In a short time, the pressure spreads homogeneously on the diaphragm and the pressure higher than the pressure of the fluid prevents the fluid from lifting the diaphragm, so the valve is in the closed position. All this happens in a very short time. Our product is designed to get the best efficiency.

What are the Points to Consider in Choosing a Solenoid Valve?

• The coil should be selected in accordance with the operating voltage (AC-DC) to be used. Protection and insulation should be provided according to the place where it will be applied. (Electricity turns on when air comes in, and turns off again when you cut off the electricity)
• In the line or system you will use, min. and max. pressure values are very important in the selection of the valve.
• The quality and temperature of the fluid is a direct factor in the selection of the valve.
• The direction of the fluid and the arrow mark on the body are in the same direction and attention should be paid to the assembly.
• Since the solenoid valve does not function as a check valve, the fluid flows back at reverse pressures. In these cases, installing a check valve after the solenoid valve is correct for the connection.
• The line to which the valve is attached must be free of impurities.
