Understanding Solenoid Valve Configurations
2/2 Way Valves
Featuring two ports and two positions, 2/2 way valves are ideal for simple on/off control of fluid flow.
Failsafe Closed (Normally Closed):
Requires power to open; defaults to closed when un-powered.
Suitable for applications needing automatic shut-off.
Failsafe Open (Normally Open):
Requires power to close; defaults to open when un-powered.
Ideal for systems requiring continuous flow unless interrupted.
Latching Bi-Stable Solenoid Valves
Latching or Bi-Stable solenoid valves
maintain their position without continuous power, making them energy-efficient and ideal for battery-powered applications.
Key Features
Pulse Activation: A brief electrical pulse changes the valve state, reducing energy consumption.
Reverse Polarity Control: Changing the electrical polarity switches the valve between open and closed states.
Material Options: Available in plastic, brass, and stainless steel to suit various media and environmental conditions.
Applications
Water Systems: WRAS approved models for potable water applications.
Pneumatics: Control of air flow in automated systems.
Battery-Powered Devices: Ideal for systems where power conservation is critical.
3/2 Way Valves
3/2 way valves have three ports and two positions, allowing for flow diversion.
Failsafe Closed: Inlet closed, outlet open to exhaust when un-powered; energising opens inlet to outlet.
Failsafe Open: Inlet open to outlet when un-powered; energising diverts flow to exhaust.
Universal: Configurable for various flow directions, offering flexibility in system design.
5/2 and 5/3 Way Valves
Designed for complex pneumatic control, these valves manage actuators with precision.
5/2 Single Coil: Energising extends the actuator; de-energising retracts it.
5/2 Double Coil: One coil extends the actuator; the other retracts it. De-energising maintains the current position.
5/3 Double Coil: Offers three positions—extend, retract, and mid-position hold—providing enhanced control over actuator movement.
