Daewoo Digger / Excavator Electric Parts YNF02597 DH60-5-7 Solenoid Valve Coil

1.What is a solenoid valve coil?
The purpose of a solenoid valve coil is to convert electrical energy into linear motion. The coil consists of copper wire (or aluminum) wound around a hollow form. When electric current flows through the coil, a magnetic field is created. This is accomplished by placing a ferromagnetic core inside the coil. In a solenoid valve, the ferromagnetic core is called the valve plunger. When the current flows through the coil, the lines of magnetic flux turn the plunger into an electromagnet. The magnetic field causes the plunger to slide further up into the coil, opening the valve body orifice or pilot orifice.

Solenoid Valve Coil Voltages
Solenoid valve coils are available for both DC and AC electricity. Although a coil can be made to work with almost any imaginable voltage, the most common voltages available are:

6-Volt DC
12-Volt DC
24-Volt DC
24-Volt AC
120-Volt AC
220/240-Volt AC

4.Advantage:

The advantage of the low voltage coils is obviously electrical safety. Hobbyists and do-it-yourselfers often power the low voltage solenoid valves with wall transformers. Most smaller valves 12 VDC valves can be powered by a 12-Volt / 500 mA power supply. However, always make sure your power supply does meet or exceed the power requirement of the solenoid. The 24 VAC solenoid valves appeal to hobbyists as well since they can be easily controlled by irrigation timers. Most industrial appliions and heavy machinery use solenoids with 24 VDC coils.
