Description:
A solenoid valve is an electromechanical device that controls the flow of fluids, such as fuel or air, within the engine system. It consists of a solenoid coil, a plunger, and a valve body. When an electrical current is applied to the solenoid coil, it generates a magnetic field, which attracts the plunger toward the coil. This movement opens or closes the valve within the valve body, allowing or blocking the flow of fluid.

Attributes:
• Controls the flow of fluids, such as fuel, air, or exhaust gases.
• Withstands high temperatures, pressures, and vibrations.
• Allowing it to move in one direction while preventing backflow.

Applications:
A solenoid valve is used for the intake manifold or variable valve timing to optimize air intake and exhaust flow for improved engine performance and fuel efficiency. It is extensively used in Cat CG137-08, G3508, G3512, G3516B, G3520E, CG137-12, G3516C Engine - Generator Set, and G3616, G3304B, G3512B, G3508, 3612 Engine - Industrial, and SR4 Generator.
