Magnetic Locking Solenoid
A latching solenoid with a fast response time and low power consumption.
The magnetic locking solenoid was originally designed for a safety system on food processing equipment. This latching solenoid maintained state without drawing any current. A short current pulse of one polarity latched the armature, which was held in position by a permanent magnet. A second pulse of the opposite polarity released the armature. The solenoid was configurable for either push or pull operation and was customizable to suit the force and stroke requirements of different applications.
