CB solenoid valve a more flexible and cost-effective option for aerospace applications

A new CB (Cartridge Bobbin) solenoid valve has been added to the established range of miniature fluid control valves available from LEE PRODUCTS. This competitively priced option has been developed specifically for high volume aerospace applications and incorporates a 5 bolt flange, providing users with the option of either a 3, 4 or 5 bolt connection.

The CB valve utilises a cartridge bobbin coil which is coupled with Lee Products innovative MultiSeal™ technology. The patented MultiSeal™ feature ensures a radically simplified port layout and allows total porting flexibility 360º around the seal, without the need for O-Rings or anti-extrusion rings.

This tough, durable valve, which weighs just 73 grams and measures only 45mm in length with a diameter of 32mm, is designed for applications with a temperature range of -54ºC to +135ºC. It is a normally closed design that is available in both single coil and dual coil configurations with the lead wires exiting either end of the valve. Other features and benefits of the CB solenoid valve include; low leakage (2 cc/mm maximum at 3000 psi, zero external), a potted coil and an integral safety screen.
