A heat pump functions as a typical air conditioning system in the cooling mode — absorbing heat from indoors and rejecting it outdoors. In heating mode, the coils reverse their functions. The outdoor ...

The solenoid valve in this system can be modeled as a mass-spring-damper system. It controls the flow rate in a fluid tank by adjusting the position of a mechanical spool within the valve. This spool ...

Abstract: Pilot-operated solenoid valves have the advantage of fast response times and can meet high pressure and large diameter requirements through their structural characteristics, making them ...

A common component used on walk-in coolers, freezers, and other refrigeration equipment is the liquid line solenoid. It is a fluid control device that is used to stop the flow of refrigerant to an ...

This was the phone call I received from a customer a few months ago. The company’s bender is a hybrid machine that uses hydraulics to open and close the clamps with directional valves. Hydraulic ...

As a critical component in fluid control systems, a failing solenoid valve can manifest its problems in various ways. These early warning signs are crucial for swift troubleshooting and preventing ...

A proportional solenoid valve is an electromagnetic valve designed to respond to a variable power input to regulate the flow of liquid and/or gas proportionately. It is used to control the flow rate ...

Royalty-free licenses let you pay once to use copyrighted images and video clips in personal and commercial projects on an ongoing basis without requiring additional payments each time you use that ...

I recently wanted to try an automatic faucet idea again. I decided to employ a latching solenoid valve to control the water flow on that enhanced version. Luckily, after some searching, I was able to ...

In power generation, solenoid valves perform critical functions such as controlling the flow of water, steam, fuel, and other fluids or gasses. Here are a few applications where solenoid valves prove ...
