Miniature, High Flow Solenoid Valve from Lee Company
March 31, 2020
When designing portable or stationary instruments, OEMs are often challenged with meeting aggressive size, power and weight limitations, without sacrificing the remaining elements of system-level performance. Each subcomponent is therefore pushed to offer improved performance within a smaller footprint. To meet these needs, the Lee Company has developed a new generation of versatile and innovative 3-port solenoid valves. In a miniature 10mm package, the genvi™ solenoid valve platform features high flow capacity, low leakage and ultra-low power consumption. The genvi LGV solenoid valve challenges the limitations of current fluidic technologies by allowing design engineers to use a miniature, low power solenoid valve without compromising system-level flow rate requirements. The genvi solenoid valve was designed to offer application versatility and unmatched reliability at an economical price point.
With a flow capability up to 40 LPM at 15 psid, and power as low as 318 mW, the LGV Series valves were designed to optimize system performance. An extremely tight leakage rating reduces compressor demand and further underscores the valve’s ability to provide consistent long-term operation across an extensive cycle life. Performance characteristics can be further optimized to meet specific application requirements.
Designed using innovative manufacturing techniques, this new valve is suitable for molecular diagnostics, respiratory therapy, compression therapy, environmental monitors, breath analyzers and other applications where performance and reliability are paramount.
- High Flow Capacity: 40 LPM at 15 psid
- Ultra-Low Power Consumption: 318 mW at Hold Voltage
- 25 Million Cycle Life
- Low Leakage: 25 µLPM (max)
- Response Time: Less Than 10 ms
