As a vital component of a solenoid valve system, the armature assembly controls valve opening and closing to ensure stable operation and reliable flow control. When the coil is energized, the magnetic field moves the plunger to change the valve position. When power is removed, the return spring resets the plunger. Each armature assembly can be customized to suit specific valve designs and operating conditions.
13mm Armature Assembly with Brass Base for Air Compressor
The 13mm Armature Assembly with Base is designed for solenoid valve systems used in air compressors and related pneumatic equipment. It combines a stainless-steel armature tube, movable plunger, sealing element, and flange-mounting base into a compact structure. The assembly converts the electromagnetic force generated by the solenoid coil into linear movement, allowing the valve to switch airflow accurately and reliably.
This 13mm armature assembly uses a 3/2-way normally closed configuration. The armature tube is designed for use with a 37mm-high solenoid coil. Stainless-steel construction provides good mechanical strength, wear resistance and corrosion resistance under repeated operating cycles. The precision-machined internal surfaces help the plunger move smoothly, while accurate dimensional control supports stable electromagnetic response and consistent valve operation.
A flange connection at the base provides a secure mounting interface for integration with the brass valve body. The upper M12×1 threaded connection offers a compact and standardized installation method.
NBR and FKM sealing options are available for different operating conditions. NBR is commonly selected for compressed air, oils and general industrial applications, while FKM can be considered where higher temperature resistance or improved chemical compatibility is required. Other sealing materials can also be customized according to the working medium, operating temperature, pressure and expected service life.
This 13mm armature assembly has typical applications including air compressor control valves, pressure unloading systems, pneumatic switching units, automatic drainage systems, and other industrial airflow-control equipment.
Other than this13mm Armature Assembly, we also provide tubes with an OD range from 7mm up to 20mm.
FAQ
1. How does armature assembly work in a solenoid valve? As a vital component of a solenoid valve system, the armature assembly controls valve opening and closing to ensure stable operation and reliable flow control. When the coil is energized, the magnetic field moves the plunger to change the valve position. When power is removed, the return spring resets the plunger. Each armature assembly can be customized to suit specific valve designs and operating conditions.
2. How to select the right armature assembly for a solenoid valve? The size, materials, and seals of the armature must be selected based on the valve body’s threaded connection, the flowing medium, the pressure, and the operating duration.
