UPVC Solenoid Valve
A UPVC solenoid valve is an electrically operated valve that is used to control the automatic flow of liquids and some gases. It combines a corrosion-resistant UPVC body with an electromagnetic solenoid coil for fast and remote operation. This valve is ideal for handling corrosive and aggressive fluids, offering excellent chemical resistance and long-term durability.
The UPVC Solenoid Valve is an electrically actuated valve that is designed to control the flow of liquids in a piping system automatically. They are constructed from Unplasticized Polyvinyl Chloride (UPVC). They operate by an electromagnetic coil, and the valves open or close quickly in response to an electrical signal, which makes it perfect for automatic system control in chemical processing and industrial automation applications.

Types of UPVC Solenoid Valve
Based on Function / Operation
- Direct-acting solenoid valves:
- The solenoid directly opens or closes the valve.
- Suitable for low flow and low-pressure applications.
- Quick response but limited to smaller pipe sizes.
- Pilot-operated (indirect) solenoid valves:
- Use system pressure to assist in opening or closing.
- Suitable for higher flow and higher pressure applications.
- Common in irrigation, chemical, and oil treatment systems.
Based on Voltage / Actuation
- AC solenoid valves: Operate on alternating current (110V, 220V, etc.).
- DC solenoid valves: Operate on direct current (12V, 24V).
- Some valves offer manual override for maintenance or emergency operation.
Based on Mounting and Form
- Inline solenoid valves: Standard straight-through configuration.
- Angle solenoid valves: Fluid changes direction, useful for space constraints.
- Flanged or socket-type: Depending on pipe connection type (socket weld, threaded, etc.).
Based on Number of Ports
- 2-way solenoid valves:
- Has one inlet and one outlet.
- Controls on/off flow.
- Most common for simple shut-off applications.
- 3-way solenoid valves:
- One common port and two outlet ports (or one inlet, two outlets).
- Allows diverting, mixing, or exhausting of fluids.
- Used in pneumatic or fluid control systems for switching flow paths.
- 4-way solenoid valves:
- Mostly used in pneumatic systems.
- Controls double-acting cylinders by providing two inlets and two outlets.
Based on Seal / Media Compatibility
