A method of operating a solenoid valve can include applying power to a coil of the solenoid valve, interrupting power to the coil upon a first increase in power consumption of the coil, detecting a first on-time when power is applied to the coil, re-applying power to the coil upon a first condition becoming satisfied, interrupting power to the coil upon a second increase in power consumption of the coil, detecting a second on-time when power is re-applied to the coil, comparing the first on-time with the second on-time, and detecting when an armature of the solenoid valve has physically shifted based at least in part on the comparing. Detecting when the armature of the solenoid valve has physically shifted can include determining that the second on-time is greater than the first on-time.

Apparatus and method provide a solenoid coil having a field-replaceable status indicator light, such as an LED. The status indicator light lights up when power is supplied to the solenoid coil to indicate the coil is energized and turns off when the coil is no longer energized. This allows technicians and other personnel working in hazardous environments to easily and reliably monitor the operational status of the solenoid coil. An electrical splitter adapter splits power between the solenoid coil and the status indicator light. The splitter adapter allows the status indicator light to be removed without interrupting power to the solenoid coil.

The present disclosure provides a high flow coefficient spool valve (50) through one or more changes in the flow path from a conventional spool valve. The body (56) of the spool valve includes spherically contoured internal grooves (68). The spool (58), slidably engaged inside the body (56), includes concave surfaces between seals (62) that is complementary to the spherically shaped internal grooves (68) of the body. The spherical shape of the body internal grooves (68) and/or concave shape of the spool allow more volume and more laminar flow therebetween, resulting in an increased flow coefficient and flow capacity. The body also is formed with transverse port windows in the port that contour into a bore of the body adjacent the spool. A choke volume in the flow is strategically designed in a parallel flow location rather than a perpendicular flow location to promote laminar flow and lessen turbulence to also increase the flow coefficient.

Systems and methods of controlling a solenoid coil in a solenoid valve provide a controller that allows a supervisory or leakage current to be used in a peak-and-hold driver. The controller introduces a delay time after detection of a dropout voltage that prevents the solenoid coil from being immediately re-energized in order to ensure proper dropout of the solenoid coil. The delay time imposes a wait period during which the controller takes no action with respect to the current in the solenoid coil, allowing the solenoid coil to deenergize and return the valve to its normally-open or normally-closed position. Such use of a delay time may be limited to instances where the controller has already gone through a power-up cycle such that the response time needed by the controller to energize the solenoid coil is minimized, thus reducing the valve startup time.

A solenoid coil assembly for hazardous environments comprises a solenoid coil and an enclosure entirely filled with encapsulation material. The encapsulation material leaves zero or almost zero volume in the enclosure for hazardous material to accumulate in any amount that could explode. This allows the solenoid coil assembly to be constructed without the usual industry standard flame paths. Additionally, the enclosure may be made of physically rigid and strong material such as metal or the like to better withstand harsh and corrosive conditions within hazardous environments without being explosion proof. The walls of such an enclosure need only have a moderate thickness and weight relative to enclosures that are explosion proof, as there is no meaningful risk of an explosion occurring within the enclosure. The combination of a rugged exterior and a zero-volume interior allows the solenoid coil assembly to reduce weight and cost while providing superior environmental protection.

Abrégé

The present disclosure provides a method and system for measuring increase in wattage to detect a potential winding failure. The increase in watts in the winding occurs when a time-varying magnetic field from active turns of the winding induces a time-varying current on shorted turns of the winding. The resistance through the shorted turns and the induced current result in power usage and increased watts. The wattage increase is much greater than a resistance decrease in the winding by the shorted turns. Measuring the watts results in detecting a shorting winding with greater sensitivity than measuring the resistance. In one embodiment, the winding can be tested offline with a wattmeter and power supply. In another embodiment, the winding in use and its wattage can be monitored continuously or periodically locally or remotely, with an optional sensor to initiate a signal upon reaching a certain percentage increase in watts.

A low power solenoid control circuit including a power source in series with a sensing element and a first diode, an inductor to actuate a valve, an energy storage device to store and discharge energy into the inductor, diodes to control current flow, and switches and a controller to control the circuit. The circuit may be operated by closing a first switch, thereby allowing a source current to flow through an inductor; opening the first switch, thereby forcing a charge current to flow through an energy storage device utilizing the inductance of the inductor; repeating these steps until the energy storage device is sufficiently charged; and upon command, closing a second switch, thereby forcing a discharge current to flow from the energy storage device to the inductor causing the inductor to produce an actuating magnetic field thereby actuating a mechanical valve.

Abrégé

The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods for controlling energy consumption in a system having a battery and including a controller and one or more solenoids. In accordance with the disclosure, the controller provides a controlling mechanism, such as a control algorithm, that will provide the necessary power to operate the one or more solenoids throughout the range of battery voltage in a manner that optimizes the voltage discharge from the battery and simultaneously maximizes battery life. Further power conservation measures are implemented by using a controller and an associated control algorithm to operate a solenoid throughout the range of battery voltage in a manner that places the discharge of the battery in reduced power consumption operating modes as the capacity of the battery is reduced.
