Installation of direction control valve

Apr 15, 2020

The directional valve can be installed in any direction, but due to the vibration of the device or the coil part of liquid Liu Xiang solenoid valve such as condensate and oil, the direction will be poor, so attention shall be paid to:


1. Avoid the influence of vibration on the sliding column of solenoid valve

During installation, the vibration direction can be at right angles to the action direction (bearing) of the sliding column of the solenoid valve, so as to avoid the impact of vibration on the sliding column of the solenoid valve.


2. In order to prevent condensate, oil, etc. from flowing into the coil of solenoid valve, it is better to install the coil upward or horizontally.


3. Before installation, the dust, oil dirt, debris and other particles in the pipeline shall be blown to avoid affecting the action and damage of the valve.


4. The inlet of the internal pilot solenoid valve shall not be throttled to prevent the pressure drop too large during reversing from misoperation.


5. The reversing valve shall be installed as close to the cylinder as possible. First, reduce the air consumption, and second, respond quickly.


6. Please plug the pipe to the end and use it after confirming that the pipe cannot be pulled out.


7. Although the coil of our company's product is calibrated as 100% ed, long-time power on will cause overheating of coil, deterioration of insulation and loss of energy. In case of long-time power on, we should consider using solenoid valve with memory function to shorten the power on time, extend the service life of coil and save energy.


8. The manual button shall not be used when the solenoid valve is energized.
