High Pressure Solenoid Valve. Model No. SVS03

 

Image of a High Pressure Solenoid Valve.  Model No. SVS03Product Overview:
A flow control valve designed for the control of high pressure gaseous propellants.

The design comprises of two essentially identical, solenoid operated, normally closed, poppet type valves mounted coaxially in series. Each of these solenoid valves comprises a coil, fixed pole and a suspended moving/armature, to which is attached a sealing pin, the valve seat is located in the valve outlet. The poppet/seat interface has been designed to minimise flow discontinuities and therefore reduce susceptibility to contamination induced failures.

This valve is an adaptation of the successful SV06/SV14 series of valves modified for high pressure use by the introduction of the “pin-in-hole” sealing arrangement and the use of electron beam welds in a stronger body.
