Examples of Typical Applications

2/2 assisted lift pilot operated solenoid valves

  • Diesel fuel supply. Generally diesel fuel is supplied from a header tank, meaning that the fuel may not be at a sufficient pressure to operate a standard pilot operated valve. This is where an assisted lift pilot operated solenoid valve should be used. It is recommended to use Viton seals for this application.
  • Low pressure water system, or a system where pressures fluctuate and may drop to zero.
  • A system where back pressure can increase resulting in a very low pressure differential across the valve. An assisted lift valve does not require a pressure differential to operate.
  • An assisted lift valve is often suitable for vacuum applications, for example in a vacuum packing machine.
