Pilot operated solenoid valves are distinguished by their simple, sturdy design. The sealing element is a diaphragm for application pressures up to 20 bar or a piston for pressures up to 450 bar.
Valves like this always need a pressure difference to be able to open and close. The minimum required pressure differential for this is stated as the minimum pressure in the technical data sheet.
In this case, the actuator only has a pilot function, through which the main sealing element, diaphragm or piston, is relieved. The medium pressure and/or the existing pressure difference lifts the main seal up.
