What is a Solenoid Valve?

Controlling the stream and tension of fluids and gases is a significant piece of numerous industries. Industrial, engineering, and manufacturing offices depend on this capacity. The main part that permits them the capacity to do valves is as well. Valves can shift in size, plan, capability, and activity. However, all have the reason to control the stream and tension of fluids and gases. One of the most well-known and now and again utilized valves is solenoid valves.


Solenoid valves are utilized to direct the development of gas or fluid in a framework. They are entrusted with shutting off, releasing, dosing, distributing, or in any event, mixing liquids. In this way, they are utilized any place liquid stream should be controlled naturally. How they work is by controlling the progression of the fluids or gases in a positive, full-shut, or completely open mode. The capability involves either opening or closing a hole in a valve body, which either permits or forestalls moving through the valve. An unclogger opens or shuts the hole by raising or lowering within a sleeve tube by energizing the loop.


All solenoid valves, regardless of the plan, are determined to be one of two general sorts. These two kinds are immediate-acting solenoid valves and pilot-worked solenoid valves. Direct acting valves work by a curl attractively opening the valve in an immediate activity, lifting the shaft and the seat of the valve without depending on the external strain. The pilot worked valves work by the unclogger opening the pilot hole while developed pressure makes the valves open and close. The main contrast between the two is immediate acting solenoid valves have an immediate association with the opening and closing armature, though pilot-worked valves utilize the utilization of the cycle liquid to help with piloting the activity of the valve.


The two sorts of solenoid valves comprise two essential parts; the solenoid connection and the real valve. Depending upon the number of openings the valve has, immediate acting or pilot work solenoid valve can be additionally separated into a two-way valve, three-way valve, or four-way valve.


A two-way valve is the most essential solenoid valve. Alluded to as a two-way valve due to having one inlet port and one outlet port. The two-way valve is utilized to either permit a liquid stream in or to stop the liquid stream. Depending upon the way things are utilized, it tends to be determined as all things considered "typically open" or "regularly shut" in their activity. With a typically open valve, the valve remains open until some sort of current is applied to close the valve. A typically shut works on the contrary design, remaining shut until a power source causes it's open.


Aira Euro Automation is the leading solenoid valve supplier in Nigeria. We offer various types of industrial valves like ball valves, butterfly valves, control valves, plug valves, solenoid valves, pressure relief valves, and many more.

Three-way valves accompany three ports. Typically including three line associations thus their name and two holes. At the point when one hole is open, the other is shut as well as the other way around. They are usually used to on the other hand apply strain to an exhaust tension from a valve actuator or a single-acting cylinder.


Four-way valves can have at least four port associations. Four-way valves are regularly utilized with a double-acting cylinder or actuator. In this variant, a big part of the port associations supply pressure, and the remaining associations give exhaust pressure. This gives a positive two-directional activity. They can be utilized instead of positioners to give on/off the activity of twofold acting valves.


These valves have various purposes. However, since their essential goal is comparable, large numbers of them can be tracked down by operating comparable applications for different industries. The horticulture industry has different purposes for solenoid valves. They are a critical part of the water system and spraying gadgets are used to water harvests and guard them against bothers. They likewise assist with regulating gas and water stream gadgets in the kettle/heat industry. A wide assortment of utilizations for the clinical industry likewise utilize these valves. Clinic beds, operating tables, tissue analyzers, dialysis gear, pulse sleeves, and synthetic cleaning hardware all utilize solenoid valves. The food administration industry involves them in their distributors, lifting, conveying, and refrigeration frameworks. Finally, manufacturing and development use them for welding/soldering, blowers, vacuum siphons, substance processing, mash and paper processing, and residue authorities.
