Also, there are special versions for 3-way solenoid valves suitable for ATEX, gas approval, and medium-separate applications. Additional selection criteria are but are not limited to the following: connection size, voltage, seal material, function, operation, pressure, temperature, bore size, approvals, and more.

First, selecting the housing material of your 3-way solenoid valve is important to ensure it is suitable for the media that the valve controls. They are suitable for gasses and clean (non-viscous) media and are known for their quick response time (tenth to hundreds of milliseconds), good sealing properties, durability, and reliability. Certain valves can also work in both directions, which is called a universal circuit function. 3-way solenoid valves can mix (two inlets and one outlet) or divert (one inlet and two outlets) the media. They can be normally closed (NC), normally open (NO), or bi-stable (latching).

3-way solenoid valves have three ports, and they are electromechanically controlled. They are have prewired connections that makes installation, maintenance, and control simple.Explore Tameson’s wide range of 3-way solenoid valves from various global manufacturers. Solid pneumatic valves offer reliability, low power consuming, and have a long life. Food and beverage manufacturers use them to make, dispense or preserve food and beverage products. Aircrafts use pneumatic valves to control the pressure and flow of hot engine air to the windshield for the anti-icing and rain removal. Pneumatic types of valves can be found in a wide array of industries.

This valve is made with an aluminum alloy and has an aperture of 1/4”. Either the compressed air flows from port 1 to port 2 through the valve, or 1 is blocked while port 2 is exhausted via port 3. When the coil is energized, the mode reverses. One valve seal always remains open and the other closed in the de-energized mode. This valve is a 3/2 valve which means the valve has three port connections and two flow positions.

This valve allows pneumatic control of position, flow, pressure and temperature. This 2/2 valve has 2 port connections and 2 flow passages allowing for unidirectional flow in less than 50 ms response time with a 1/4 inch Aluminum alloy. It is also the interface between electronic controllers and pneumatic systems. Solid 1/4" NPT 3 way 2 Position Pneumatic Electric Solenoid Valve is a switch for routing air to any pneumatic device, usually an actuator, allowing a relatively small signal to control a large device.
