The smaller size of mini solenoid valves makes them suitable for installations in tight spaces or where weight and size constraints are critical. Despite their reduced dimensions, they still offer reliable and precise fluid control.
Tips: How Does Mini Solenoid Valve Work?
A mini solenoid valve operates by using an electromagnetic coil to control the flow of fluid or gas through a small opening. The valve consists of a coil, plunger, and a valve body with an orifice. When an electric current passes through the coil, it creates a magnetic field, which attracts the plunger towards the valve body. This movement opens the orifice, allowing the fluid or gas to flow through. Conversely, when the current is removed, the magnetic field collapses, and a return spring pushes the plunger back, closing the orifice and stopping the flow.
