Introduction

What you need

Step 1

              Solenoid coil is short circuit or open circuit               
  • Test the solenoid with a multi-meter, if the resistance is close to zero or infinity, it means that solenoid is either open circuit or broken circuit.
  • If open circuit or broken circuit happens, you need to change a new solenoid coil.

Step 2

              Problems with the plug               
  • If there is a plug on the solenoid valve, you may need to check the metal spring clip inside the socket.
  • If this problem happens, modify the wire connection, repair or replace the plug or socket.

If this problem happens, modify the wire connection, repair or replace the plug or socket.

Step 3

              Problem with the valve element               
  • The valve element can be problematic because of too much water in the compressed air or too many foreign particles in the liquid medium.
  • Check the valve element and get rid of all the foreign matters.
  • If problem still occurs, replace the full valve element.

Check the valve element and get rid of all the foreign matters.

If problem still occurs, replace the full valve element.

Step 4

              Solenoid valve won't work after turned on               
  • bad wiring. Re-connect the wire.
  • Regulate voltage to the normal range.
  • weld the solenoid coil again.
  • regulate the pressure differences.

Step 5

              The solenoid valve cannot close               
  • replace the sealing parts of broken valve element
  • replace the solenoid valve with a suitable one for medium with a higher temperature.
  • clean the foreign matters in the valve element.
