The latest benefits of overmoulded solenoid valve connectors
Solenoid valve connectors are now available with control circuits providing additional tangible benefits to OEM design engineers and end customers’ maintenance engineers. Connectors with LEDs can save engineers vital time by providing immediate feedback regarding real time voltage status, and thereby the correct functioning of the solenoid valve. Without such a fast, visual indication, time may be lost investigating other potential error causes.
