understanding normally open solenoid valves: a key component in fluid control systems
Release time:2025-08-25 08:59:34
A solenoid valve is a key component used in various industrial applications for controlling the flow of liquids or gases. It uses an electromagnetic coil to control the opening and closing of a valve. One of the most common types of solenoid valves is the Normally Open (NO) solenoid valve. As the name suggests, a Normally Open solenoid valve is designed to remain open under normal conditions and only closes when actuated by an electrical signal. This article will explore the working principle, applications, and benefits of Normally Open solenoid valves, with a special focus on Meishuo, a leading brand in this field.

What is a Normally Open Solenoid Valve?
A Normally Open solenoid valve is designed to be in the open position when no power is applied to the solenoid. The valve opens due to the spring tension and the natural position of the valve mechanism. Once an electrical current is applied to the solenoid coil, it generates a magnetic field that pulls the valve mechanism, closing the valve and stopping the flow of fluid or gas. This type of valve is particularly useful in applications where it is important for the system to allow flow by default, with the ability to stop the flow only when needed.
