Pressure-Release Solenoid Valve
A high-temperature on/off solenoid valve that reduces pressure inside a closed cavity.
The pressure-release solenoid valve is designed for a motorcycle engine and can operate in temperatures as high as 240°C. When power is applied, the inner poppet extends, and flow is communicated through the valve’s nose to the radial exit holes. When power is removed, the poppet retracts, closing the valve.

A Solenoid Valve for a Motorcycle Engine
TLX Technologies designed a pressure-release valve to automatically reduce compression during engine startup.
Unlike standard, off-the-shelf components, TLX solenoids and valves are tailored to your application. Functionality, materials, and design are carefully balanced to meet your objectives, including:
Response Times
Whether slow or ultrafast, TLX optimizes design geometry and magnetic field shaping to achieve your required response time.
Targeted Force and Stroke
Careful design of internal components allows shaping of the force curve to closely match your desired load force and stroke requirement.
Size Constraints
A variety of design techniques are utilized to maximize magnetic force while reducing size (up to 25% smaller than competing designs).
Limiting Power Consumption
Designing with magnetic latching or peak & hold operation of the solenoid or valve minimizes overall power consumption.
Functionality
Designed to operate with continuous, intermittent, latching or proportional functionality. Optional integration of smart device feedback capabilities.
Environmental Considerations
Optimized for harsh temperatures, high pressure, and hazardous environments. Designed for chemical compatibility and contamination resistance.
