Mechanical & Motion

A solenoid valve is an electromechanical valve that is often used to control the flow of liquid or gas. There are several varieties of solenoid valves, but the two most common are pilot operated and direct acting. Pilot operated valves, the most common type, use system line pressure to open and close the main orifice in the valve body.

Direct driven solenoid valves open or close the main valve orifice, which is the only flow path in the valve. They are employed in systems that require limited flow capacity or applications with a low pressure difference across the valve orifice.

Documentation & RFQ readiness

BOLTON sources and supplies to specification. Documentation availability depends on the product, its manufacturer/supplier source and your stated requirement, and can be confirmed during quotation. To get an accurate quote quickly, include:

  • The exact manufacturer part number (MPN) and quantity required
  • Any drawing, specification or standard that applies, where relevant
  • Required documentation — e.g. certificate of conformity, datasheet, test report, SDS/TDS, calibration certificate or traceability, where applicable
  • Delivery location and required-by date
