Product Details of Solenoid Valve Model: WK45(1-1/2")-N-5-DC24V / Diaphragm Type 2/2 way NC, NBR Seal, For Vacuum, Water,
The diaphragm type solenoid valve (Solenoid Valve Diaphragm Type) is a valve that controls the flow of liquids or gases using a diaphragm and a solenoid to open and close the valve. It is commonly used in automatic systems such as water supply systems, irrigation systems, compressed air systems, and various industries.
Working Principle of Diaphragm Type Solenoid Valve
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.
Operation Mode
Normal Closed (NC) – Normally Closed
No electricity → Plunger closes pilot port → Pressure on both sides of the diaphragm is equal → Diaphragm keeps valve closed.
Electricity applied → Plunger lifts up → Opens pilot port → Top side pressure on diaphragm decreases → Fluid from bottom pushes diaphragm up → Valve opens.
Normal Open (NO) – Normally Open
Similar principle but reversed pressure sides → No electricity, valve is open; with electricity applied, valve closes.
Advantages of Diaphragm Valves
Rapid opening and closing.
No leakage (as the diaphragm does not wear out like other types).
Easy maintenance.
Suitable for clean liquids such as water, air.
Usage Details
Potable water systems – Control water in filtration machines and cold water dispensers.
Irrigation systems – Open and close water according to schedule.
Food/Pharmaceutical industries – Used with clean liquids that require precise control.
Compressed air (Pneumatic) systems – Control air supply in machinery.
Home appliances such as washing machines, coffee makers.
