Aluminum Solenoid Valves

Explore Tameson’s wide range of 2-way aluminum solenoid valves from various global manufacturers. 2-way aluminum solenoid valves have 2 ports (an inlet and an outlet), 2 switching states (open or closed), and are electromechanically controlled. They are suitable for gasses and clean (non-viscous) media and are known for their quick response time (tenth to hundreds of milliseconds), good sealing properties, durability, and reliability. 2-way aluminum solenoid valves are used to solely start/stop the flow of media and are usually normally closed (power is required to open the valve) so that the valve remains closed in case of failure. They can also be designed as normally open (power is required to close the valve) or bi-stable (latching by staying in the most recent position with no power).

Aluminum solenoid valves have aluminum as the housing material. Please note that the internal parts of the solenoid valve are made of different materials (usually stainless steel 430F for the plunger). The aluminum housing gives the solenoid valve moderate strength and is lightweight, making it suitable for low-pressure applications involving gasses. Always ensure that your solenoid valve housing and seal material suit your media. Additional selection criteria are but are not limited to the following: connection size, voltage, seal material, function, operation, pressure, temperature, bore size, approvals, and more. There are special versions suitable for ATEX, gas approval, and medium-separate applications.
