Description

2/2 Direct Acting Solenoid Valve 1/4″ (220VAC / 24VDC)

2/2 Configuration

The valve is a 2/2 way solenoid valve, which means it has three ports and two positions. It can control the flow of fluid from one inlet port to one outlet ports, depending on its position.

Direct Acting

The solenoid valve is of the direct-acting type, meaning that it does not require an external source of pressure to operate. When the solenoid is energized, it directly opens or closes the valve, depending on its design.

Port Size

The valve has 1/4″ ports, indicating the size of the inlet and outlet ports. A 1/4″ port size is common for many pneumatic and fluid control applications.

Voltage Options

The solenoid valve can operate with two different voltage options: 220VAC (Alternating Current) or 24VDC (Direct Current). This provides flexibility in selecting the appropriate power source for the valve based on the system requirements.

Applications

Solenoid valves with these specifications are commonly used in a variety of applications, including pneumatic systems, compressed air systems, water control systems, and industrial automation processes.

Functionality

The solenoid valve functions by using an electrical coil to actuate a plunger mechanism. When the coil is energized, it generates a magnetic field that pulls the plunger, allowing fluid to flow through the valve. When the coil is de-energized, the plunger returns to its original position, closing the valve and stopping the flow of fluid.

Reliability and Durability

Solenoid valves are typically constructed with durable materials to withstand harsh operating conditions. The reliability and durability of the valve depend on factors such as the quality of materials used, the design of the valve, and proper maintenance practices.

Operating Conditions

It’s essential to ensure that the solenoid valve is operated within its specified voltage and pressure ranges to prevent damage and ensure optimal performance.
