Long Stroke Tubular Solenoid advantage and disadvantage

The long stroke tubular solenoids have many advantages for industrial applications. They have a compact tubular structure that improves magnetic efficiency. They offer rapid response speed and long service life. Tubular solenoids provide better protection from dust and environmental contaminants compared to the open-frame type.

Another advantage is that the tubular solenoids can be easily customized. They offer various voltage options, force levels, mounting styles, and duty cycles. They can be easily integrated in small-sized equipment due to their cylindrical body structure.

However, the long-stroke tubular solenoids have some disadvantages too. When you increase stroke length, the magnetic force tends to decrease throughout the whole stroke length. The solenoid tends to heat during continuous operation, and thus, appropriate heat dissipation measures should be taken. Higher force levels require more power consumption. In case of extremely long travel distances, other actuators, including motors and pneumatic cylinders, can be more suitable.

Long Stroke Tubular Solenoid Troubleshooting Guide

There are several issues that should be considered if your long stroke tubular solenoid does not work properly. If the solenoid fails to move, check the voltage level and electrical connections. Inappropriate wiring or insufficient voltage can lead to the inability of the magnet to move.

Another problem can be the overheating of the solenoid. The continuous operation in excess of specifications or inappropriate voltage input can result in overheating. Correct duty cycle setting and proper ventilation can minimize the chances of overheating.

A weak force output can be caused by dirt, internal wear, low voltage, or an incorrect stroke setting. Cleaning the plunger and adjusting the mechanical alignment can help improve the performance. Noises and vibration usually indicate loose mounting hardware or damaged internal components.

If the plunger sticks when being moved, the reason might be lack of lubrication or the presence of contamination. In case of severe environments, it is recommended to increase the protection against dust and moisture. With regular inspections and voltage control, the long-stroke tubular solenoid will provide a long service life.

Long Stroke Tubular Solenoid FAQs

1. What is Long Stroke Tubular Solenoid?

3. What is the difference between push type and pull type of solenoids?

Push-type solenoids produce outward motion of the plunger, while pull-type solenoids produce inward motion.

4. Where are long stroke tubular solenoids most frequently used?

They are most commonly used in automation equipment, vending machines, smart locks, medical devices, and industry machines.

5. Stroke length customization available?

6. Are tubular solenoids suited for continuous duty?

Yes, some models are designed for continuous duty operation with proper heat dissipation measures.

7. Why does the solenoid get hot when it is operating?

It is a normal phenomenon due to electromagnetic operation. However, excessive heat indicates overvoltage or incorrect duty cycle selection.

8. How to extend the service life of solenoid ?

Proper mounting, correct voltage input, and avoiding overloading can increase service life and performance.

Choosing a Long Stroke Tubular Solenoid

Selecting the appropriate long stroke tubular solenoid is essential for proper operation and extended service life. The first parameter to check is the necessary stroke length. Different applications require different stroke lengths, and thus, the solenoid should be able to move the plunger accordingly.

The next parameter to be considered is force. You should identify the push or pull force you require. A larger force requires a larger coil size or increased power consumption. The voltage should also be selected properly. Common voltages include 6V, 12V, and 24V DC.

You should also determine the duty cycle. Continuous operation solenoids dissipate less heat, but intermittent duty solenoids provide more force for short periods. The dimensions of installation and the fastening order should match the equipment structure.

Temperature, humidity, vibrations, dust, and other environmental factors are also important. Some buyers require a waterproof or heat-resistant design. Consider also the response speed, noise level, coil insulation grade, and service life of the solenoid. Various customizations, including special connectors, spring systems, shaft extensions, and brackets, can be included in a special design.
