A solenoid valve is an electromechanically operated device used to control the flow of fluids or gases. It consists of a coil wound around a ferrous metal core, creating a magnetic field when energized by an electrical current. This magnetic field lifts the plunger inside the valve, allowing for the flow of media through the valve. Solenoid valves are commonly used in various applications such as irrigation systems, industrial automation, heating and cooling systems, and medical equipment. They are known for their reliability, quick response time, and precise control over the flow rates of liquids or gases. With advancements in technology, solenoid valves now come in different configurations such as direct-acting, pilot-operated, and latching types to suit specific application needs.
