ICO3S Maxseal Solenoid Valve

Maxseal direct-acting solenoid valve for control of pneumatic or hydraulic-operated equipment

The Maxseal brand offers extremely high quality stainless steel solenoid valves, designed and manufactured with reliability and integrity in mind. Maxseal valves perform exceptionally well in harsh environments all over the globe and are often associated with offshore oil & gas applications, but are also used onshore, particularly in coastal environments where a fully stainless steel construction is advantageous.

ICO3S valves are in operation in both upstream and downstream solutions, has global certifications, and due to their exceptional reliability are often found on Safety Instrumented Systems.

The ICO3S direct-acting solenoid valve where the line media is applied to the inlet port A. When power is applied to the solenoid, the valve opens and there is flow to the outlet port B. When the power is removed, the spring closes the valve and the valve exhausts through port C.

Direct-acting solenoid valve:

• Control of pneumatic or hydraulic-operated equipment
• Short movement
• Low friction
• More resistance to contamination

Uniform coil housing with a thermally efficient coil:

• Reduced flux leakage
• Increased magnetic force for opening
• Fully potted with no air gap, protected from moisture, corrosive chemicals, vibration and other hard working conditions
• Stops coil burnout
• <10 degrees C temp rise above ambient
• Coil housing acts as a heat sink

Dry Armature:

• Isolates the core & armature from media
• Enables low retentivity core material
• No residual magnetism after coil is de-energised
