2 Way Solenoid Valves

A 2-way solenoid valve is an electromechanical device that controls the flow of fluid in a system. It has two ports: one for the inlet and one for the outlet.

The valve operates by using an electromagnetic coil to open or close the valve. When the coil is energized, it creates a magnetic field that moves a plunger, allowing fluid to flow through the valve. When de-energized, the plunger returns to its original position, stopping the flow.

They are commonly used in various applications, including water control systems, HVAC systems, irrigation, and industrial automation processes.

Common materials include brass, stainless steel, plastic, and PVC, depending on the application and the type of fluid being controlled.

A normally closed valve remains closed when de-energised and opens when energised, while a normally open valve allows flow when de-energised and closes when energised.

Yes, 2-way solenoid valves can be used for both liquids and gases, but it is important to select a valve designed for the specific type of fluid.
