A solenoid valve is a combination of two functional units:

1. A solenoid operator essentially consisting of a coil, core, core tube, shading coil and spring(s).

2. A valve body containing orifices in which a disc, diaphragm or piston etc. is positioned according to the type of technology used. The valve is opened or closed by movement of the magnetic core which is drawn into a solenoid when the coil is energised.

The latter type of valve is known as a piston type Solenoid valve, generally used in high pressure applications.
