Everything you want to know about DC solenoids

DC solenoids - also known as DC magnets or electromagnets - are technical components favoured for their capacity to actuate small movements quickly and efficiently. For example, to move a component over a short distance, or to bolt a hatch or door.

Magnet Schultz has described the characteristics of its extensive range in an impressive reference booklet entitled ‘Technical explanations for DC solenoids’. This compact overview of its linear and rotary solenoids with accompanying (technical) explanation gives a complete picture of the working principle for each type, plus its potential applications in a wide range of situations and operating conditions.
