Solenoid Valve 230V 1/2 inch

💧 Solenoid Valve 230V AC (1/2 Inch)
🧩 Overview
Electrically controlled fluid control valve
Operates on 230V AC supply
Standard 1/2 inch pipe connection
Used to automatically control water, air, or fluid flow
⚙️ Working Principle
Valve is usually Normally Closed (NC)
When 230V AC is applied, coil energizes
Magnetic field lifts internal plunger/diaphragm
Valve opens → fluid flows
Power OFF → valve closes automatically
👉 Acts like an electronic ON/OFF tap
