12V DC Solenoid Valve

Introducing the 12V DC Solenoid Valve. Whether you're a hobbyist or professional, this is the perfect valve for all your needs. With its high-grade metal + plastic material, you can be sure that it's durable and reliable for long-term use.

Solenoid valves are control units that, when electrically energized or de-energized, either shut off or allow fluid flow. The actuator takes the form of an electromagnet. When energized, a magnetic field builds up which pulls a plunger or pivoted armature against the action of a spring.

12V DC Solenoid Valve is ideal for sprinkler systems and hydroponics. If you add a microcontroller to it you can do all kinds of cool things like monitoring the soil moisture level and opening the valve when low.

Inner workings of a 12V DC Solenoid Valve

The above image of the 12V DC Solenoid Valve should give us a good idea of how a 12V DC Solenoid Valve works when it has power and when it does not have power.

Simple wiring diagram

The above image is a simple wiring diagram of a 12V DC Solenoid Valve and an Arduino Uno. The above image just shows us that we can use an Arduino to control the 12V DC Solenoid Valve, meaning we can tell the 12V DC Solenoid Valve to open or close when we so desire.
