The valves are often used in high-pressure applications, such as natural gas pipelines. Solenoid valves typically have: an electromagnetic coil and a movable armature. When the coil is energized, it creates a magnetic field that pulls the armature towards it. This opens the valve

Natural gas solenoid valves are often used in automation systems because they can be controlled remotely. They are also generally more reliable than other valves, making them ideal for critical applications. When Might You Need A Natural Gas Solenoid Valve?

The most common type is the normally closed valve, designed to automatically shut off the flow of gas if there is an interruption in power. This is the best option for most people, as it provides a high level of safety. Another type of natural gas solenoid valve is the normally open valve. This device allows gas to flow even when there is no power, which can be helpful in some situations. However, it is essential to remember that this type of valve does not offer the same level of safety as a normally closed valve. If you are still determining which type of natural gas solenoid valve is right for you, it is always best to consult with a professional.
