AGB 2 Way normally closed solenoid valves have maximum flow rates and a minimal footprint, giving you the flow you need without wasting precious space in your system. 2 Way normally closed solenoid valves can cover your application needs from water filtration, car wash, compressors, medical devices, and laundry systems. If you look, almost everywhere an AGB solenoid valve is performing a critical function.
A 2-way normally closed solenoid valve is a type of valve with two ports and is typically in a closed state when not energized. When an electrical current is applied to the solenoid coil, it generates a magnetic field that lifts a plunger or actuator, allowing fluid (liquid or gas) to flow through the valve. Here's what each component of the term "2-way normally closed solenoid valve" means:
2 Way Solenoid Valves
This indicates that the solenoid valve has two ports: one inlet and one outlet. 2 way solenoid valves are commonly used for on/off control of fluid flow. When the solenoid valve is energized, it opens to allow fluid to flow from the inlet to the outlet.
Normally Closed Solenoid Valves
The "normally closed" designation means that the solenoid valve is closed (shutting off flow) in its default state when not energized. In other words, in the absence of an electrical signal to the solenoid coil, the valve is closed, blocking the flow of fluid. It only opens when the solenoid is energized.
These 2-way normally closed solenoid valves are used in various applications, including controlling the flow of liquids (e.g., water) or gases (e.g., air) in industrial, commercial, and residential systems. They are commonly found in HVAC systems, irrigation systems, water purification systems, and more, where precise control of fluid flow is required.
When selecting a 2-way normally closed solenoid valve for a specific application, consider factors such as the type of fluid, pressure and temperature requirements, valve material compatibility with the fluid, flow rate, and the voltage and electrical specifications suitable for your system. Additionally, make sure to follow the guidelines for installation, operation, and maintenance to ensure the proper functioning of the solenoid valve.
