Application
The MSV is a solenoid type valve, generally having
two or more solenoids, which have been designed to
specific customer requirements. The valve operation
and sequencing will vary for each type dependant
upon the application.

Physical Description
The MSV is a multiple solenoid valve. This product
utilises the well-proven Teddington solenoid coil,
based on the SOV unit, with a lightweight aluminium
body. The valves are arranged in one or two rows,
depending on the number of solenoids, on either side
of the valve body.

Operation
The MSV is an electrically operated shut off valve.
Inside the solenoid there is coil of wire, usually
cylindrical, in which a magnetic field is created by
passing an electric current through it. This field is
used to move an iron rod placed on its axis at the
centre of the coil. When the solenoid is attached to
the valve body the rod can be operated by switching
the current on or off, so converting electrical energy
into mechanical energy. This moves the rod in and
out opening and shutting the valve.
