  2. Solenoid valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solenoid_valve

    Non-magnetic core tubes are used to isolate the fluid from the coil. The core tube encloses the plugnut, the core spring, and the core. The coil slips over the core tube; a retaining clip engages the depression near the closed end of the core tube and holds the coil on the core tube. Solenoid valve designs have many variations and challenges.

  3. Solenoid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solenoid

    Of course, if the solenoid is constructed as a wire spiral (as often done in practice), then it emanates an outside field the same way as a single wire, due to the current flowing overall down the length of the solenoid. How Ampère's law can be applied to the solenoid. Applying Ampère's circuital law to the solenoid (see figure on the right ...

  4. Solenoid (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solenoid_(engineering)

    The solenoid can be useful for positioning, stopping mid-stroke, or for low velocity actuation; especially in a closed loop control system. A uni-directional solenoid would actuate against an opposing force or a dual solenoid system would be self cycling. The proportional concept is more fully described in SAE publication 860759 (1986).

  5. Shuttle valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shuttle_valve

    The basic structure of a shuttle valve is like a tube with three openings; one on each end, and one in the middle. A ball or other blocking valve element (the shuttle) moves freely within the tube. When pressure of a fluid is exerted through the opening at one end it pushes the shuttle towards the opposite end, closing it. This prevents the ...

  6. Solenoid voltmeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solenoid_voltmeter

    A solenoid voltmeter is a specific type of voltmeter electricians use to test electrical power circuits. [1] It uses a solenoid coil to attract a spring-loaded plunger; the movement of the plunger is calibrated in terms of approximate voltage. It is more rugged than a D'arsonval movement, but neither as sensitive nor as precise.

  7. Starter solenoid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starter_solenoid

    The starter motor is a series, compound, or permanent magnet type electric motor with a solenoid and solenoid operated switch mounted on it. When low-current power from the starting battery is applied to the starter solenoid, usually through a key-operated switch, the solenoid closes high-current contacts for the starter motor and it starts to ...

    In helping instigate a heated debate over H-1B visas, Elon Musk is speaking both from personal experience and as a business owner.That's because his company, electric car maker Tesla, is among the ...

  9. Flyback diode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flyback_diode

    In Figure 2, a flyback diode was added in antiparallel with the solenoid. Instead of spiking to -300 V, the flyback diode only allows approximately -1.4 V of potential to be built up (-1.4 V is a combination of the forward bias of the 1N4007 diode (1.1 V) and the foot of wiring separating the diode and the solenoid [dubious – discuss]). The ...
