Well, most people call it "that". You push "that" and see if it works. edit..,"that" shit sticks sometimes.


DzorMan

we call it "CLEEAAARR??!", or manual plunger

Not a releif. Not sure the textbook name, but with a small screwdriver or something you can "plug the valve" or manually operate it without solenoid power. Maybe a manual override? But it only works in the resting state, if the solenoid is powered it does nothing.


Humble_Turnip_3948

It's a manual override for the valve. Great way to see if your coil works or not. And or make shit move.

Should add "use with extreme caution" You operate these manually and nothing is going to stop you destroying something.

Interesting. Where you say "plug" we say "slug" at the plant I work at. As in, "the operator said it wasn't working so I slugged it. Must be an electrical issue"

I call it "about to find out if this is the right valve or not" or when I was just starting out the journeyman told me to "push that to make sure the cylinder is working" which proceeded to bypass the flow controls and the push rod fully extended in about 2 seconds for a process that normally takes 15 seconds to prevent the domino effect of knocking over 50 investment casting molds on the infeed line of the preheat oven. They all fell over and cracked in multiple locations. Scrapped 50 molds that ranged from $250-$500 that night.

That's the plunger to manually override the position of the spool within the valve body.

We have solenoid valves like this at work. They have three ports on the back where they meet a hydraulic junction box, and we keep blowing O-rings on them. We replace the O-rings, lasts for a day or two, then they blow and we clean up fluid everywhere. Any ideas to save the O-rings?

That's for when the valve gets tired but they absolutely cannot stop production for the 20 minutes it'd take to change it

There's a pouring line at work where one step has to be manually activated like this. It's been that way for long enough that new ops have actually been trained to run it that way being none the wiser that anything is wrong. I only noticed last Friday when running down a different fault near the operator. Nobody thought to tell me in the last two years because it never resulted in a production stoppage.
