Cartridge Solenoid Valve

A cartridge solenoid valve is a compact mechatronic hydraulic control component. It consists of a solenoid coil and a valve cartridge insert, utilizing electrical signals to control the on-off, direction, or flow of hydraulic oil. These valves are typically screwed or inserted directly into the machined cavities of a hydraulic manifold block. Due to their space-saving design, reduced leakage points, and ease of maintenance, the solenoid cartridge valve is widely utilized in construction machinery, agricultural equipment, and industrial automation sectors.

• Components: The assembly mainly includes a solenoid cartridge (converting current into a magnetic field), an armature, a return spring, a valve spool (Spool type) or poppet (Poppet type), and sealing rings such as O-rings.

• Operational Process: When the coil is energized, it generates a magnetic field that attracts the armature to move against the spring resistance, changing the position of the valve core to open or close the flow path. Once the power is disconnected, the valve core returns to its original position under spring force.

• Installation Methods: The cartridge solenoid is primarily categorized into screw-in and slip-in (two-way cartridge) types. Screw-in valves are threaded directly into the manifold block like a light bulb, while slip-in versions are generally secured within the valve cavity by a cover plate.

• Mobile Equipment: In John Deere combine harvesters, JLG aerial work platforms, and various excavators, these valves control cylinder lifting, steering, and auxiliary tool movements.

• Industrial Automation: They are extensively applied in the actuators of injection molding machines, hydraulic presses, and conveyor systems.

Function Choice

Application Attention:

1.About all the spool type valve, if the spool held shiffed under pressure for a long time, may be the spool will be stuck due to fluid residue, so that the spring can not overcome the clamping force, causing the spool valve can not be reset, it should be used periodically to prevent this from happening.
2.The valve cavity must be made in strict accordance with cavity dimensions, the processing must meet the equirements of thread tolerance class, we can install cartridge valves by hand easily, then press the specified torque with a wrench to tighten.
