When you consider everything that goes into keeping an industrial plant running, valve connectors may seem insignificant from a size and cost perspective, but these tiny parts are subject to high standards. They need to withstand extreme temperatures, require exposure to oil and grease to operate, and need to maintain reliable connections.
DIN valve connectors are designed to connect end devices such as solenoid valves to voltage sources and/or data networks to provide power to these devices and, in some cases, transmit signals.
These end devices all have one important goal: to control the direction of flow of liquids and gases. In some cases, they are also used to provide protection against surges that could otherwise damage the equipment. They function similarly to kitchen faucets, except that they control the flow of electricity instead of water.
This connector can also be used to connect pressure sensors, temperature sensors, and flow monitors to the required power and data.
DIN valve connectors can be found wherever there is a manufacturing process. These parts are widely used in automotive, chemical, food/beverage, pharmaceutical, oil/gas, and water/wastewater, to name a few.
