Rotary Battery Operated Solenoid Selection
Box Frame
This solenoid has a 4-sided closed box frame and solid plunger and is, therefore, more electrically efficient than the C Frame solenoid. The closed, box frame also provides improved mechanical strength.
C Frame
C Frame solenoids consist of a formed C-shaped steel frame and solid plunger. Therefore, these solenoids are less efficient and less costly than their Box Frame counterparts.
