Solenoid Valves for Aircraft Hydraulic and Pneumatic Systems
Modern aircraft depend on precise control of fluids and gases throughout numerous systems. From hydraulic actuation and pneumatic controls to fuel and environmental systems, dependable valve operation plays an important role in aircraft performance and reliability.
At Ohmega Solenoid Company, we design and manufacture precision solenoid valves and electromagnetic components for demanding aerospace and defense applications. Our products are engineered to provide fast, dependable actuation while meeting the specific performance requirements of each application.
The Role of Solenoid Valves in Aircraft Systems
A solenoid valve uses electromagnetic force to control the movement of a valve mechanism. When electrically energized, the solenoid provides fast and repeatable actuation, allowing fluids or gases to be controlled automatically within a system.
In aerospace applications, solenoid valves may be used where precise control, compact size, fast response, and dependable operation are essential. Depending on the application, these valves can support hydraulic, pneumatic, fuel, lubrication, and other aircraft systems.
Because aircraft operate under changing temperatures, pressures, vibration, and environmental conditions, selecting the appropriate solenoid valve is an important part of system design.
Engineered for Demanding Operating Conditions
Aerospace solenoid valves must deliver consistent performance across a wide range of operating conditions. Important design considerations can include pressure, temperature, flow requirements, voltage, response time, duty cycle, size, weight, materials, and mounting configuration.
Ohmega Solenoid works closely with customers to understand these requirements and develop solutions suited to the intended application. Our engineering and manufacturing capabilities allow us to address applications that may not be adequately served by standard off-the-shelf products.
Custom Solenoid Valve Solutions
Every aircraft system has different requirements. A valve designed for high-temperature engine bleed air, for example, may have significantly different performance requirements than a fast-acting high-pressure hydraulic valve.
Ohmega Solenoid provides custom solenoid valve solutions that can be tailored around the customer’s operating and installation requirements. Our engineering team can assist with product development from initial concept and prototype through testing and production.
In addition to solenoid valves, our capabilities include linear solenoids, rotary solenoids, molded coil assemblies, custom coils, and electromagnetic assemblies, providing customers with a broad range of motion and control solutions from a single experienced manufacturer.
Quality Throughout Manufacturing and Testing
Quality and consistency are especially important when manufacturing components for aerospace and defense applications. Ohmega Solenoid operates under AS9100D and ISO 9001:2015 certified quality management systems, supporting controlled manufacturing processes, inspection, testing, documentation, and continuous improvement.
Our assembly and testing capabilities help verify that finished products meet applicable customer specifications and performance requirements before shipment.
Experience You Can Depend On
With more than five decades of experience in solenoid design and manufacturing, Ohmega Solenoid has developed solutions for some of the most demanding aerospace, defense, and industrial applications.
Our combination of engineering expertise, precision manufacturing, advanced production technology, quality assurance, and testing allows us to support customers from initial development through ongoing production.
