Steam solenoid valve

Steam Solenoid Valve Models: PS / RSH / RSPS / ZCT / 2L A steam solenoid valve is a solenoid valve specifically designed for automatic on/off control in high-temperature steam pipelines. Since steam has characteristics such as high temperature, high pressure, and a tendency to condense, steam solenoid valves differ significantly from ordinary solenoid valves in design and material selection. Their core feature is high-temperature resistance. The valve body is often made of stainless steel or forged copper, while internal sealing components must be made of temperature-resistant materials such as PTFE or graphite to withstand the continuous thermal effects of the medium. To prevent the coil from burning out due to high temperatures, the coil assembly is typically designed with a heat dissipation structure and uses high-temperature resistant insulating materials. In terms of structural type, the piston-type structure is more stable and durable under high-temperature conditions than the diaphragm type. Since steam can easily form condensate in pipelines, in order to prevent interference with the valve core operation, it is necessary to confirm the appropriate temperature resistance grade and minimum operating differential pressure based on the medium temperature and pressure during selection. Due to its fast closing action, care must be taken to prevent water hammer effects during installation, and a steam trap should be installed in the pipeline if necessary. The steam solenoid valves produced by Kaivex Valve Group are widely used in industries such as textiles, food processing, printing and dyeing, and medical sterilization equipment.
