A water solenoid valve is an electrically operated valve that controls the flow of water in various systems. This type of valve has gained significant popularity in industries and household appliances due to its precise control and automation capabilities. The working principle of the solenoid valve, its diverse applications, and its many benefits make it an essential component in modern systems that require fluid regulation.

What is a Water Solenoid Valve? At its core, a water solenoid valve consists of an electric coil (also known as the solenoid), a plunger, and a valve body. The solenoid coil generates a magnetic field when an electric current flows through it. This magnetic force either opens or closes the valve, controlling the flow of water. In the absence of electrical power, the valve typically remains in its default position, either open or closed, depending on the design. When electricity is supplied, the plunger is either pulled away from the valve seat (allowing water to flow) or pushed into it (blocking the water flow).
