ITT 01B0386 Solenoid Valve 120V

A solenoid valve, like the ITT Solenoid Valve 120Vdc, is an electromechanically operated valve used to control the flow of liquids or gases. Here’s a brief overview of how they work and their applications:

How They Work

1. Electromagnetic Activation: When electrical current passes through the solenoid coil, it generates a magnetic field.
2. Valve Operation: This magnetic field moves a plunger or armature within the valve, opening or closing the valve to control the flow of the fluid.
3. Types: Solenoid valves can be normally closed (NC), normally open (NO), or have multiple ports for more complex control.

Applications

• Industrial Automation: Used in machinery to control the flow of air, water, oil, or other fluids.
• HVAC Systems: Regulate the flow of refrigerants.
• Medical Equipment: Control the flow of gases in devices like ventilators.
• Automotive: Manage fuel injection systems and other fluid control needs.
