Solenoid Enclosure and Coil Information Coils are electrical devices that produce magnetic flux when electrical power is applied to the windings. Surrounding the coil is the metal solenoid enclosure and frame. Together with the plunger and stop, it forms the magnetic circuit that operates the valve. Without the enclosure, the magnetic circuit is not complete. Without a complete magnetic circuit, the magnetic field is reduced and valve performance suffers. Depending on the coil voltage and power rating, the pressure rating of the valve can vary. Solenoid enclosures come in a variety of constructions offering varying levels of protection against the elements and other forces. NEMA identifies the different enclosures as “Types” and NEC sets standards for their safety and performance. Integrated coils have an epoxy or thermoplastic "over-molding" creating a one-piece coil/enclosure for modularity and protection from the environment. The National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) recommends suitable materials and components to meet each enclosure type. The enclosures listed here will only meet the applicable NEMA recommendations when properly installed and operated to NEMA specifications and in accordance with the NEC.
