A research team has successfully designed and tested a novel superconducting solenoid. Through the optimization of the pole structure and magnetic field distribution, the spherical aberration ...

Relays and solenoids are available with many different voltage ratings. Most factory- and process-automation equipment operates from 24-V supplies. However, customers may have control signals for a ...

Solenoids have long been used to control valves and fluid flow. A typical solenoid converts an input voltage to magnetic force that attracts a moveable core which, in turn, opens or closes a valve.

Available in ISO, miniature, 8-mm, and 9.4-mm versions, the 5F and 5J solenoid-valve connectors feature a fully molded design that enables superior environmental integrity over field wire versions.

Solenoids are used in many applications to provide linear or rotational actuation in mechanical systems. Although driving solenoids can be as simple as switching the current flow on and off, ...

The valves, which can move from fully-open to fully-closed in as little as 30 msec, reportedly can fit in a fraction of the package space ordinarily needed for comparably-rated valves using a linear ...

A pull-type tubular solenoid, the model ST2552N has a maximum rating force of 77.6 oz. at a .04" stroke. Frame dimensions are 1" in diameter by 2.05" in length. Standard coils are made for 3, 6, 12, ...

The new solenoid design features an enlarged pure iron yoke (radius increased from 31.75 mm to 38 mm, length doubled from 58.6 mm to 120 mm). This modification significantly reduces the first ...

Miniature diaphragm pumps and valves can be tailored to meet market objectives. Photo by RONI RAMOS The increased demand for medical therapies and treatments to be administered at home—or even on the ...
