The response time of metal solenoid valves varies depending on the specific model and type. Here are some common situations:
Direct acting solenoid valve
Response time: Generally, it can be as short as a few milliseconds, with quick action and the ability to quickly open and close. It is suitable for places that require high response speed, such as quick cutting
Pilot operated solenoid valve
Response time: Usually within a few tens of milliseconds, for example, the response time of pilot operated solenoid valves such as MVSC-220-4E2 is generally less than 35 milliseconds. Compared to direct acting solenoid valves, it is slightly slower, but it has the advantages of low power consumption, less heat generation, and frequent power on. It is generally used in large-diameter, high-pressure pipelines
