Making Snowmobiles Safer
TLX Technologies developed a low-voltage, custom latching solenoid to actuate an emergency braking mechanism for a snowmobile.
Custom Solenoids and Valves Using Latching Technology
Latching solenoids, actuators, and valves do not need constant power to maintain position, making them ideal for applications that require maximum energy efficiency.
Short-Stroke Latching Solenoid
A latching solenoid with a short stroke that drew no current to maintain state.
Explosion-Proof Actuator with Supervision
UL HazLoc, ATEX, and IECEx certified for use in hazardous gas environments. Accommodates systems with operating pressures up to 300 bar.
High-Pressure Supervised Latching Actuator
For fire suppression systems with operating pressures up to 300 bar and is compatible with CO2 systems. Meets regulatory standards for supervision.
Discrete Proportional Valve System
Uses only a short pulse of power to actuate and does not require constant power to maintain state.
High-Flow Discrete Proportional Valve
Designed to support applications with high flow rates at pressures up to 60 psi, with customizable flow characteristics.
Bistable Latching Solenoid
This light-duty solenoid uses only a short power pulse to actuate the armature and maintains position without constant power.
Digital High-Speed Control Valve
A digital valve that was designed to control outlet flow for high-pressure gas vessels.
Low-Profile Latching Solenoid Lock
A two-position latching solenoid lock that drew no current to maintain either a locked or unlocked status.
Increased Force Supervised Latching Actuator
For fire suppression systems with mid-range operating pressures. Meets regulatory standards for supervision.
Supervised Latching Solenoid Actuator
This patented actuator accommodates systems with lower operating pressures and meets regulatory standards for supervision.
Latching Diaphragm Solenoid Valve
A battery-operated valve that used water pressure to open and close.
Long-Stroke Latching Solenoid
A low-voltage solenoid with a long stroke that drew no current to maintain state.
