SOLENOID VALVES – INDUSTRIAL GRADE SOLUTIONS FROM KRISHNA INDUSTRIES, AHMEDABAD, INDIA

INTRODUCTION TO SOLENOID VALVES

Solenoid valves are one of the most critical components used in modern industrial automation and fluid control systems. They provide fast, reliable, and precise control of liquids and gases using an electrically actuated mechanism. In simple terms, a solenoid valve uses an electrical coil to control the opening and closing of a valve, allowing or stopping the flow of media such as water, air, steam, oil, gas, chemicals, and other compatible fluids.

At Krishna Industries, Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India, we specialize in supplying high-quality solenoid valves designed to meet the demanding requirements of Indian industries. Our solenoid valves are widely used across sectors such as water treatment, pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, HVAC, power plants, chemical processing, textiles, oil and gas, irrigation, and general industrial automation.

This product page focuses exclusively on solenoid valves for Indian buyers, keeping in mind Indian operating conditions such as voltage standards, ambient temperatures, pressure fluctuations, and long-duty cycles. We position Krishna Industries as a reliable supplier of industrial solenoid valves in Ahmedabad, serving customers across Gujarat and all major industrial states of India.

WHAT IS A SOLENOID VALVE

A solenoid valve is an electromechanical device that controls the flow of fluid through a valve orifice. It consists mainly of two parts:
1) Solenoid coil (electrical part)
2) Valve body with internal moving components such as plunger, diaphragm, or piston

When electrical power is supplied to the solenoid coil, it generates a magnetic field. This magnetic field moves the plunger, which in turn opens or closes the valve. When power is removed, the valve returns to its original position either by spring force or fluid pressure.

Solenoid valves are preferred in automation systems because they allow remote operation, fast response times, compact design, and easy integration with PLCs, timers, sensors, and control panels.

WHY SOLENOID VALVES ARE ESSENTIAL IN INDIAN INDUSTRIES

Indian industries operate in diverse environments, from high-temperature process plants to outdoor irrigation systems exposed to dust and humidity. Solenoid valves offer multiple advantages that make them ideal for such conditions.

Fast and precise control
Solenoid valves provide instant opening and closing, which is essential in automated processes where timing accuracy matters.

Low manual intervention
Once installed, solenoid valves reduce dependency on manual operators, improving safety and consistency.

Compatibility with Indian power supply
Our solenoid valves are available in commonly used Indian voltage ratings such as 230V AC, 24V AC, and 24V DC.

Compact and space-saving
Ideal for control panels, skids, and compact piping systems.

Cost-effective automation
Compared to motorized valves, solenoid valves are economical for small to medium line sizes.

TYPES OF SOLENOID VALVES OFFERED

At Krishna Industries, we supply a wide range of solenoid valves suitable for different applications. Below is a detailed explanation of the common types available.

DIRECT ACTING SOLENOID VALVES

Direct acting solenoid valves operate without the need for line pressure. The solenoid directly lifts the valve seat when energized. These valves are suitable for low-flow applications and systems where pressure is very low or zero.

Applications
Laboratory equipment
Small dosing systems
Low-pressure air or water lines

Advantages
Works at zero pressure
Simple design
Fast response

PILOT OPERATED SOLENOID VALVES

Pilot operated solenoid valves use line pressure to assist valve operation. The solenoid opens a small pilot orifice, allowing pressure to move the diaphragm or piston.

Applications
Water pipelines
Steam lines
Compressed air systems

Advantages
Handles higher flow rates
Energy efficient
Long service life

SEMI DIRECT ACTING SOLENOID VALVES

These valves combine features of direct acting and pilot operated designs. They can operate at low pressure while still supporting higher flow than purely direct acting valves.

Applications
Industrial utilities
Process control systems

NORMALLY CLOSED SOLENOID VALVES

In normally closed solenoid valves, the valve remains closed when power is off. Flow starts only when the solenoid is energized.

Common usage
Water supply lines
Air control systems
Fuel and gas applications

NORMALLY OPEN SOLENOID VALVES

In normally open solenoid valves, the valve remains open when power is off and closes when energized.

Common usage
Cooling systems
Fail-safe applications
