Problem Phenomenon:
The solenoid valve opens normally after installation, but after a few seconds (or several seconds), it gradually closes on its own, and the flow rate decreases.
Cause Analysis:
1️⃣ Unstable pipeline pressure.
2️⃣ Voltage fluctuations causing an uneven magnetic field.
Solution:
1️⃣ Implement pressure stabilization in the pipeline.
2️⃣ Place a shim under the coil to raise it by 3–5 mm, shifting the magnetic field upward.
Problem Phenomenon:
The solenoid valve opens normally after installation, but after a period of operation, it fails to open.
Cause Analysis:
The coil has burned out due to prolonged or excessively frequent energizing.
Solution:
Replace the coil.
Problem Phenomenon:
The solenoid valve fails to open immediately after installation.
Cause Analysis:
1️⃣ Incorrect voltage – Too high voltage can burn out the coil immediately.
2️⃣ Excessive pipeline pressure – The magnetic force generated by the coil is insufficient to move the valve.
Solution:
1️⃣ Replace the coil.
2️⃣ Use a coil rated for higher voltage or shorten the internal spring by 3 turns.
The solenoid valve works normally after installation, but after a period of operation, it fails to close.
Cause Analysis:
1️⃣ Dirt or debris has accumulated in the solenoid valve’s internal orifices or at the valve seat seal.
2️⃣ The diaphragm or piston is damaged.
Solution:
Replace the diaphragm or piston.
Cause Analysis:
There is back pressure at the solenoid valve outlet, or dirt/debris has entered the valve inlet.
Solution:
Install a check valve at the outlet or a filter at the valve inlet.
