Solenoids

Solenoids are essential components for starting machinery equipment that use engines driven by an internal combustion reaction.

At GAM we are specialists in the sale of solenoids and offer a wide variety of options to replace those that may have deteriorated over time. Ensure the correct operation and start-up of your equipment's motors.

Features of our machinery solenoids

A solenoid is an electromagnetic device used in a wide variety of systems, being especially important in the automotive field. In the context of starter motors, solenoids play a critical role, sending a signal from the ignition switch to the starter motor, which starts the engine.

These starter solenoids are composed of three key elements:

• Wire coil: the solenoid coil is composed of numerous turns of spirally wound copper wire. When an electric current flows through the coil, it generates a strong magnetic field that affects a permanent magnet. This magnetic field attracts or repels the moving plunger.
• Housing: The housing is usually made of iron or steel and surrounds the coil. Its main function is to concentrate the magnetic field generated by the coil, which attracts the plunger towards the stop, providing the mechanical force necessary to perform the work.
• Moving plunger (armature): the plunger moves linearly or back and forth when a force is applied due to the magnetic field of the coil. It acts as a relay and, upon receiving electricity, moves metal contacts to close a circuit. When the ignition key is turned, electric current is applied to the solenoid, which activates its magnetic field and pulls the contacts, thus closing the circuit and allowing the transmission of electric current from the battery to the starter motor.

These solenoids convert electrical energy into mechanical work, resulting in starting the engine.
