2. Solenoid valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solenoid_valve

   Solenoid valves. A solenoid valve is an electromechanically operated valve.. Solenoid valves differ in the characteristics of the electric current they use, the strength of the magnetic field they generate, the mechanism they use to regulate the fluid, and the type and characteristics of fluid they control.

3. Solenoid (engineering) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_horn

   In trucks and buses, the air horn is powered with compressed air from the vehicle's air brake system. In trucks, a cord mounted on the ceiling of the operator's cab is pulled or in buses, a valve lever on the side of the dashboard is pushed down or pulled up to open the valve, supplying varying amounts of air to the horn.

5. Air-operated valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air-operated_valve

   An air-operated valve, also known as a pneumatic valve, is a type of power-operated pipe valve that uses air pressure to perform a function similar to a solenoid. As air pressure is increased, the compressed air starts to push against the piston or diaphragm walls which causes the valve to actuate. Whether the valve opens or closes depends on ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Train_horn

   Diagram of a typical locomotive air horn power chamber, showing operation. Train horns are operated by compressed air, typically 125–140 psi (8.6–9.7 bar), and fed from a locomotive main air reservoir. When the engineer opens the horn valve, air flows through a supply line into the power chamber at the horn's base (diagram, right).
