More Information
Summary:A solenoid operated valve constructed in accordance with the teachings herein utilizes multiple solenoids which each actuate their own respective valve member. There is a one-to-one relationship of valve members to solenoids. This same one-to-one relationship exists between the valve members and a plurality of passages arranged along a flow path through the valve. Each solenoid is operable to independently move its associated valve member from a closed position, where the valve member is seated against a partition wall defining the passage to entirely prevent fluid flow through its associated passage (or only allow for a controlled leakage flow), and an open position, where the valve member allows fluid flow through its associated passage.
