What is a Solenoid Valve?


What is a Solenoid Valve? How does a Solenoid Valve Work?

Solenoid valves are electrically actuated mechanical systems that control the flow of substances like liquids and gases. Solenoid valves are commonly used on automotive transmissions.The solenoid valve uses an electric current which moves the solenoid. This pulls a piston preventing it from stopping the flow of air and fluid. The valve will need a constant flow of electrical current to remain open because when there is no current flow, the electromagnetic field scatters and the valve returns to its original position.
