Solenoids > Solenoid Innovation: MagShiftš Quiet Solenoids
|
|
 |
MagShift® solenoids have several unique
characteristics which differentiate this product from
other linear open frame and tubular solenoids: |
|
|
Extremely low noise potential. |
|
In a power ON mode,
this unit will measure below 40 dBA, including the end-
of-travel stop. This is accomplished by the elimination of
the hard stop within the solenoid. Instead, the MagShift
unit stops magnetically within the body of the solenoid. |
|
|
No impact forces |
|
As the unit reaches its power ON,
end-of-travel position, there is no impact force from
the unit. This eliminates potential issues of vibration or
product life failures caused by the end-of-travel impact
associated with some linear solenoids. |
|
|
Mechanical over-travel |
|
In a typical linear solenoid,
once the power ON position is reached, no further travel
of the plunger is possible. With the MagShift, the plunger
is able to continue to travel past the electrical ON
position when actuated externally by the application. |
|
|
Higher initial starting forces |
|
Due to the starting
position of the plunger, the MagShift solenoid will, in
general, have a higher starting force than some linear
solenoids. This provides more starting force for a given
power level solenoid.
|
|
|
No residual magnetism |
|
Due to the elimination of
internal components, the MagShift solenoid has no
residual magnetism. |
|
|
Flexibility |
|
Due to the unique construction of this unit,
the same assembly can be configured as either a push or
a pull solenoid, allowing for greater flexibility in system
design.
|
|
Although the MagShift performance curves will
show the solenoid force ramp towards zero in the
full power ON position, this unit will still hold a load
when in the fully energized position. Due to the
hysteresis characteristics of this unit, system return
springs and light system loads can be held in the fully
energized position, even though the unit will come to
a magnetically zero position. This unit is ideally suited
for system applications where high holding loads are
not required, but where higher starting loads, quiet
operation, or no impact vibrations are desired.
Note that the data shown below reflects only one
design of this vey flexible solenoid family. Please call to
discuss your application.
