- DC solenoids may be installed in any position.
- AC solenoids are prone to buzzing if they are not installed squarely in the application.
- The plunger should only be used in the axial direction.
- In order to achieve maximum service life solenoids should be loaded with at least 70% of the magnetic force.
- It is imperative that voltage, ON period, temperature and protection be checked before a solenoid is operated.
- If a neutral lead is required it should be fitted provided by the customer in compliance with VDE 0100.
