[@MrHilisalasi]

Great video as always! I use them in reverse osmosis plants along with a salinity sensor to determine the quality of the water. 2 plumbed into a T (1 normally closed and 1 normally open). When the salinity sensor detects good water the NC valve is energized and the NO valve de-energized, sending good water to the storage tank! We also use electronic ball valves which would make a great vid....

[@ericgoulding9823]

I'm taking a home inspectors course and I couldn't wrap my head around solenoid valves until I found this channel. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

[@rrace2]

Great video. An added bonus would have been to talk about safety features, like redundant loop and when to choose NC valve in case of power failure or contact failure.

[@tiemen596]

6:20 You cannot reverse the current to reverse the force on the plunger in an NO or NC valve configuration- it will generate a pulling force regardless of the direction of the current. You can see this by the fact that both wires usually have the same color. At 6:20 you'd have to switch the position of the plunger (moving part of the armature) and pole piece (fixed part of the armature). The pole piece is commonly made hollow, with a shaft connecting the plunger (now on top) to the seal. Reversing direction of current is used in the case of latching valves, which have a permanent magnet. The solenoid then either adds to the permanent magnetic field, or subtracts from it when it is reversed. I suppose you could use a permanent magnet in an NC or NO valve? That just seems needlessly complicated to me - would like to see your next video.

[@jasonwalker4610]

Correct. Without a magnet in the plunger, the coil will pull the metal plunger to the center of the coil regardless of polarity.

[@jjr897]

Aleksy Limb especially when used with AC current.

[@danieleinehag6480]

Aleksy Limb det var

[@jothain]

Yeah. I was also highly disappointed to see that solenoid valves are pretty much all diaphragm valves and solenoid actually operates pilot hole on membrane. It's not common to use plunger to close flow directly. So this video isn't exactly correct who they actually work mechanics vise.

[@djaztec97]

So if one end of the coil was (+) and the other end was (-), would direction of the current control whether that valves closes or opens?

Hey, I m a process engineer in a biopharmaceutical industry and we r using it in our pcs system to control the flow of gas in the Bio- reactors ....this video was amazing 👍

[@tanas8973]

considering I'm a journeymen plumber and I am in charge of the proper installation of the water piping system, when my boss mentions installing the solenoid valves, I may not know exactly where I need to put em in at but at least I have a firm understanding of what it is and what it's used for... thanks again E.M.!! p.s. my boss likes the coffee mug I got him for xmas :)

[@nikhilp9994]

Beautifully explained, Thank you!! Another application of the Solenoid valve is the fuel control system in the vehicles.

Thank you for this video! Our lecturer gave us homework to find out more about solenoid valves. This was so cool.

[@fahimasghar6375]

Very nice video Sir. Thank you so much.

[@JimThomasOutdoors]

In the ARMY we used solenoids coupled with hydraulic lines to sync up a Cobra attack helicopter pilot's helmet mounted gun sight to the rotating and elevating gun turret which would point a electric motor driven Gatling gun. As a 17 year old high school drop out, I can tell you it was an amazing experience to get to work on such a complex system.

Thank you so much for such a great explaination. I am going to use for smart irrigation system using solenoid valve and raspberry Pi.

[@travelguy1827]

We use solenoid valves in irrigation systems in central Florida. They are of the closed type, only opening when they are energized. They screw into a valve body which opens and closes when the solenoid is activated by a main controller. The input supply voltage is 120VAC and that is reduced through a transformer into 24V DC output. The solenoid sits into an adapter with a rubber seal. They do go bad quite often due to all the summertime electrical storms or lightning that makes contact to the ground and zaps them and the control panel. They are very easy to replace because the actual valve has a manual control valve at the top to manually regulate the valve pressure. That manual valve has to be fully closed to replace the solenoid. The solenoid itself can be screwed from its port on top of the valve and the two wires reconnected. Some smaller valves don't have a pressure valve and the entire system has to be turned off via a ball valve and depressurized before the solenoid is replaced. There are also battery operated solenoids that can only be used with battery operated timers or controllers. They are 18V DC energized by two 9 volt batteries. This is used if their is no AC power to operate a 24V DC timer/solenoid on a job site. Each solenoid represents a zone . A decoder is also used with one or more solenoids to turn on or off a zone.

[@silaturahmitenismeja1901]

thx u sir for sharing knowledge

[@abelghita7632]

Very nice! Only one thing: regardless of the direction of current flow through the coil, the solenoid will still move the metalic piston in the same direction i.e. the solenoid will bring the metalc piston center of mass in the point where the coil magnetic flux density is strongest. Thought that wasn't very clear at 6:15

[@jeffm2787]

Was about to post this as well. You would need a permanent magnet piston for what was said to work. For two directions you would need two coils with diode or relay steering, or as mentioned a permanent magnet core.

It is used in industrial application like ice plant where solenoid valves are used in KCX compressors to control amount of refrigerant

[@seoxpert7073]

Wow thiz is amazing video ever

[@MrSEMOCOS]

Solenoid valves are used in Hot melt adhesive applications to open and close the Glue Gun module plunger to aid the glue flow. It is also used in pneumatic applications also for automating the control of compressed air supply.
