Stainless steel solenoid valves are used in pneumatic and hydraulic systems to control the flow of fluids. They are made of stainless steel, which makes them resistant to corrosion and wear. This makes them a good choice for use in harsh environments or with corrosive fluids.
Solenoid valves are electronically controlled valves that use an electromagnet (solenoid) to open or close a valve. When the solenoid is energized, it creates a magnetic field that pulls a plunger open, allowing fluid to flow through the valve. When the solenoid is de-energized, the plunger closes, stopping the flow of fluid.
Solenoid valves are used in a wide variety of applications, including:
- Automotive industry: To control the flow of fluids in engines, transmissions, and brakes
- Chemical processing industry: To control the flow of corrosive fluids
- Food and beverage industry: To control the flow of fluids in food and beverage processing equipment
- Medical industry: To control the flow of fluids in medical devices
- Semiconductor industry: To control the flow of fluids in semiconductor manufacturing equipment
