Solenoid Water Valve Plastic Normally Open

Solenoid Water Valve Plastic Normally Open - This Water Solenoid Valve Plastic helps users control the flow of water. It would make a great addition to the robotic gardening projects. Normally, the valve is closed. When 12VDC is applied to the two terminals, the valve opens and water can push through. Notice that the liquid can only flow one direction.

There are 2 kinds of this Water Solenoid Valve Plastic. The “Inlet Valve” has working pressure 0.02 Mpa – 0.8 Mpa, used for water influent, while the “Drainage Valve” 0-0.2 Mpa, used for Drainage. Please select the right one you need.

Frequently Asked Questions About The Solenoid Water Valve Plastic Normally Open

Q1: What is a solenoid water valve and what does it do?

A solenoid water valve is an electrically-controlled valve that regulates the flow of water. It works by using an electromagnet to open and close a valve, which allows water to flow or stops it from flowing. The "Normally Open" designation means that when the solenoid is not energized, the valve is open and water flows through it. When the solenoid is energized, it closes the valve and stops the flow of water.

Q2: What are the components of a solenoid water valve?

The components of a solenoid water valve include:

1. Valve body: The body of the valve that holds the valve mechanism and is connected to the water supply and outlet pipes.
2. Valve mechanism: The part of the valve that opens and closes to control the flow of water.
3. Electromagnet: The component that generates a magnetic field when energized, which is used to control the valve mechanism.
4. Coil: The component that generates the magnetic field when energized by an electrical current.
5. Spring: A component that returns the valve mechanism to its default position when the electromagnet is not energized.

Q3: How is a solenoid water valve installed?

A solenoid water valve is typically installed by connecting it to the water supply and outlet pipes and connecting the electrical wires to a power source and control system. The valve should be installed in a location that is protected from exposure to the elements and is easily accessible for maintenance and repair.

Q4: How does a solenoid water valve work?

A solenoid water valve works by using an electromagnet to open and close a valve mechanism, which regulates the flow of water. When the solenoid is energized, it generates a magnetic field that attracts the valve mechanism and closes the valve. When the solenoid is de-energized, the spring returns the valve mechanism to its default position, opening the valve and allowing water to flow.

Q5: What are the typical applications of a solenoid water valve?

Solenoid water valves are commonly used in a variety of applications, including:

• Irrigation systems
• Plumbing and HVAC systems
• Water treatment and purification systems
• Industrial processes that require precise control of water flow

Q6: What are the advantages of using a solenoid water valve?

The advantages of using a solenoid water valve include:

• Precise control of water flow: Solenoid valves allow for precise control of water flow, making them ideal for applications that require precise flow regulation.
• Ease of use: Solenoid valves are easy to operate, as they can be controlled with a simple electrical signal.
• Durability: Solenoid valves are made of high-quality materials and are designed to be durable, making them ideal for use in demanding applications.
• Energy efficiency: Solenoid valves are energy-efficient, as they consume very little power when in use.
