Description: A 3/2 Way Pneumatic Single Solenoid Valve is a type of directional control valve used in pneumatic systems to control the flow of compressed air. The "3/2" designation refers to the valve having three ports and two positions. The three ports include an inlet port, an outlet port, and an exhaust port. The two positions allow the valve to either direct the flow of air from the inlet to the outlet or divert it to the exhaust. The "single solenoid" means that the valve is actuated by a single solenoid coil, which energizes to shift the valve to its second position and de-energizes to return it to its default position.
This type of valve is commonly used in automation, robotics, and industrial applications where controlling the movement of pneumatic actuators or cylinders is needed. It provides precise control over airflow, allowing for reliable operation of machines and processes that require actuators to move in different directions.
