3 way solenoid valve

A 3/2 solenoid valve, also known as a 3-way solenoid valve, is a vital component in automated fluid control systems across many industrial and commercial sectors. It features three ports—inlet, outlet, and exhaust—that allow precise starting, stopping, or redirecting of air, gas, or compatible liquids.

These valves use an electromagnetic coil to actuate a plunger or armature for fast, reliable switching. Available in Normally Closed (NC), Normally Open (NO), and Universal types, the latter can be configured as either NC or NO to suit system needs.

They play a critical role across industries by enabling precise pneumatic and hydraulic actuation, control valve actuation, and overall process control. Their automated flow switching supports applications from factory automation and robotics to HVAC, water treatment, and packaging—enhancing safety, efficiency, and system performance.
