How Solenoid Valves Work

Learn how Solenoid Valves Work and where they're used in the Mechanical Trades. Learn the difference between a Normally Open and Normally Closed Solenoid Valve.
See examples of how they're used in a Water-Cooled Heat Pump System to meet the ASHRAE 90.1 Standard. See how they're used in a Refrigeration Circuit.

Do you have a diagram available for a CNG Solenoid valve on the 3600 PSI System? It consists of a fuel level sensor, and thermal sensor. I'm interested in decommissioning an Expired tank on a CNG Vehicle

[@MEPAcademy]

Sorry, we don't have any such diagram. Good luck with your project.

[@palikibhargavi5024]

In this solenoid valve. If the pressure is high then the flow of the water will be high?

[@DimuthuJanakaAbeysinghe]

Thank you very much for your explanation... 🎉🎉🎉

[@MEPAcademy]

Thanks for watching.

[@enesoz1985]

Can 12v selenoid valves withstand 300 bar pressure or which valves do?

[@MEPAcademy]

The standard solenoid valve found in HVAC application will never see that level of pressure. High pressure solenoid valves are often used in applications like hydraulics, high-pressure gas systems, oil and gas exploration, and industrial machinery.

[@siranjeevi4125]

Does it prevent from which cause while pumpdown?

[@MEPAcademy]

? The solenoid can be used as part of the pump down cycle.

[@alisinoir3348]

at what position, is the solenoid valve is supposed to be fixed

[@MEPAcademy]

Depending on the application, the solenoid valve could be either normally open or normally closed.

[@alvinjayreyes7478]

what if , if the armature tube is not closing ,even the coil is new?

[@MEPAcademy]

I'm not sure we understand the question. Can you rephrase your question.

[@constres-h5t]

​@@MEPAcademyI think it's: What will happen if the armature tube isn't closing even if the coil is new
