A water solenoid valve is an electrically controlled valve that regulates the flow of water through a pipe or hose. It is composed of a coil, an iron core, a valve body, and a spring. The key function of the solenoid valve is to either open or close the valve by generating a magnetic field when an electric current is applied to the coil. This magnetic field attracts the iron core, which in turn opens or closes the valve. When the power is switched off, the spring pushes the valve back into its closed position.

    How Does a Water Solenoid Valve Work?

    The operation of a water solenoid valve is straightforward. When electricity is passed through the coil, the resulting magnetic field pulls the iron core and opens the valve. Water can then flow through the system. When the electric current is turned off, the magnetic field disappears, and the spring mechanism closes the valve, stopping the flow of water. This process allows for quick and efficient control of water flow, providing automation and precision.
