Ultra-low carryover solenoid valve

Abstract:

A solenoid valve system includes a valve body defining porting for a fluid flow through the valve body, and first and second solenoid valve components attached oppositely to the valve body. Each valve component includes an electromagnetically driven armature with a poppet that moves between a closed position and an open position. The porting defined by the valve body includes first side porting, second side porting, and common porting in fluid communication with an internal common chamber defined by the valve body. When a respective poppet is in the closed position, flow of fluid is blocked between the respective side porting and the common porting, and when the respective poppet is in the open position the poppet permits a flow of fluid between the respective side porting and the common porting through the common chamber.
