Product Details of Solenoid Valve Model : WD40L(1-1/2")-N-5-AC220V / Diaphragm Type 2/2 way NC,NBR Seal,For Water, Air,G
The Diaphragm Type Solenoid Valve (Solenoid Valve Diaphragm Type) is a valve that controls the flow of liquids or gases using a diaphragm and solenoid to open and close the valve. It is commonly used in automatic systems such as plumbing systems, irrigation systems, compressed air systems, and various industries.
How a Diaphragm Solenoid Valve Works
Main Components
Solenoid Coil (Electromagnetic Wire Winding): Creates a magnetic field when electric current flows through it.
Plunger (Movable Iron Rod): Lifted or lowered by the magnetic field.
Diaphragm (Flexible Rubber/Silicone Sheet): Opens and closes fluid pathways.
Pilot Port (Pressure Control Port): A small port that helps control pressure on both sides of the diaphragm.
Operating Mode
Normal Closed (NC) – Normally Closed
No electricity → Plunger closes the pilot port → Pressure on both sides of the diaphragm is equal → Diaphragm keeps the valve closed.
Electricity applied → Plunger is pulled up → Pilot port opens → Pressure above the diaphragm decreases → Fluid from below pushes the diaphragm up → Valve opens.
Normal Open (NO) – Normally Open
The principle is similar but reversed in terms of pressure → Without electricity, valve is open; with electricity applied, valve closes.
Advantages of Diaphragm Valves
Quick opening and closing.
No leakage (as the diaphragm does not wear out like other types of valves).
Easy to maintain.
Suitable for clean fluids such as water, air.
Usage Details
Drinking water systems – Controls water in filtration machines and cold water dispensers.
Automatic irrigation system – Opens and closes the water supply according to schedule.
Food/Pharmaceutical industry – Used with clean fluids that require precise control.
Pneumatic system (compressed air) – Controls the supply of compressed air in machinery.
Home appliances such as washing machines, coffee makers.
