Operation of Solenoid Valve:
1. The above shown animation is an example of normally closed solenoid operated valve.
2. When there is no supply voltage to SOV then it will be in Normally Closed condition (default).
3. When the Switch was closed then power will be passed through the Solenoid coil, then energizes the coil. The energized solenoid coil acts as magnet and lifts the core or plunger (Center Part of Solenoid) of the solenoid.
4. As the core or plunger of solenoid moves towards upsides, this movement creates an open flow.
5. When the Switch was opened .i.e. power supply is disconnected, then solenoid coil de-energizes and magnetic field also stopped. Then the plunger will be pushed back to its original position with the help of a spring, this movement stops the flow.
6. Thus the solenoid valve will open/close as per the solenoid valve coil magnetization.

Software’s immersion within businesses, process and objects has expanded the scope of what could be automated. When you add in rapid advances in artificial intelligence, you start seeing a lot more interest in technologies that are increasing how well machine sense, learn and act. Investors are taking notice—investments in artificial intelligence start-ups by venture capitalists have increased roughly 20x in the last four years. What’s your Intelligent Automation play?
