Plastic solenoid valves are typically employed in systems that manage the flow of liquids or gases. These valves use electromagnetic force to open or close a flow path, making them integral to automation and fluid management systems. The primary advantages of plastic solenoid valves over their metal counterparts are their ability to resist corrosion and their lighter weight. These attributes are especially crucial in industries where chemicals or aggressive fluids are involved, such as water treatment, pharmaceuticals, and food processing.

    The use of plastic materials like PVC, PP, PVDF, and PTFE allows these valves to withstand harsh chemicals and extreme environments. Additionally, plastic valves are typically more affordable than their metal versions, making them an attractive choice for companies seeking to balance performance and cost.
