Safety instructions before starting

1.Check the compatibility of the medium used, temperature and other operating conditions with the materials and specifications
of the product. It is the responsibility of the user to select the right product for the application.
2.Solenoid valves can only be used with clean liquids or gases. It is recommended to install a filter before the solenoid valve.
3.Never exceed the limits for pressure, temperature or voltage as indicated on the product and/or in the technical documentation.
4.The temperature of a solenoid valve coil can rise during operation; this is normal. Overheating will cause smoke and a burning
smell. In this case, the power supply must immediately be disconnected.

It is recommended to install the solenoid in vertical position with the coil

facing upwards. This reduces the probability of the collection of debris in
the solenoid valve.

Installation Instruction
1. The solenoid valve can be used in combination with clean liquids or gases. Make sure that the pipe may contain dirt before
installing the valve. It is recommended to install a filter (500 µm) before the solenoid valve.
2. Be aware of the direction of flow of the medium when installing the valve. Solenoid valves with an arrow on the housing must
be connected in the indicated direction. The pipes on both sides of the valve must be securely fastened. Use a wrench for
both valve and pipe while tightening to prevent unnecessary stresses in the system. The solenoid valve must be fixed via the
provided connection points. Only exert force at the designated areas on the body such as the hexagon; never to the coil or
armature. Avoid vibration in the pipes. Use a suitable sealant for threaded connections of the solenoid valve. Avoid the entry
of thread sealing material in the valve, this can lead to malfunctioning of the valve.

Common faults and inspection, troubleshooting

Problem Solution
1. Check electrical supply with voltmeter. Voltage must agree with nameplate rating.

Valve fails to operate 2. Check coil with ohmmeter for shorted or opened coil.

3. Make sure that pressure complies with nameplate rating.

1. Disassemble valve; clean out extraneous matter. The plunger must be free to move
without binding.
The valve is sluggish or
inoperative - electrical supply 2. If a diaphragm design, check the diaphragm for tears and/or clogged or obstructed bleed
and pressure check out hole or pilot orifice. Torn diaphragm must be replaced.

3. Check all springs. If broken, replace.

External leakage at sleeve Check that the sleeve and/or cover screws are torqued to specifications. If leakage persists,
flange or joint between body replacement of diaphragm assembly or flange O-ring may be required and/or bodies or
covers with damaged sealing surfaces may have to be replaced.
and cover

External leakage at speed

Check O-rings for damage and replace if necessary.
control device

1. Disassemble valve, remove extraneous matter, and clean parts in a mild soap and water
solution.

Internal leakage 2. Examine diaphragm sealing surface for dirt. Remove all foreign particles. Examine orifice
for nicks. Damaged parts must be repaired or replaced.

3. Check plunger return spring. Replace if broken.

Chatter or buzz sound 1. Remove power from the coil.

when energized 2. Inspect the plunger and sleeve forexcessive wear or contamination.
