A solenoid valve is quite simply a device composed of 2 main parts.The first is a solenoid (electromagnet) with its core and the second is a valve body containing one or more orifices. Flow through an orifice is shut off or allowed by the movement of the core when the solenoid is energized or de-energized.

We all come into contact with these products everyday without ever considering them. Solenoid valves are present in self-service gas pumps, convenience vending machines and car wash equipment.

Solenoid operated valves are available from 1/8 in. to 3 in. pipe sizes in operating pressures of 5 psi to 2200 psi. The year 1966 saw the development of the original Red Hat valve concept.This industry leading updated concept has the solenoid enclosure and internal coil integrated into one assembly by means of encapsulation.
