Structure & Mechanism
Solenoids of this category work externally through pulling in plunger and/or pushing out pushing rod
A. Classification by cover/frame structure:
- C shape open frame solenoid.
- O shape open frame solenoid.
- Tubular Solenoid.
B. Classification by work mode:
- Pull type: solenoid, when energized, doing work through pulling in plunger joined object
- Push type: solenoid, when energized, doing work through pushing away pushing rod joined object.
