Heavy Duty Linear Solenoids

KENDRION Heavy Duty Linear solenoids with closed housing are specifically designed for applications requiring a high life expectancy. Their areas of application range from automation technology to medical technology to device technology and many more. Due to maintenance-free armature bearings on both sides, switching cycles in the two-digit million range are possible. These solenoids are available in cylindrical (RM series) and square (V series) form factors. Preferred types are available in small quantities directly from stock.

RM series

From size 040 onward, the high-performance solenoids of the RM series are based upon a modular design. Mounting holes at the front and the rear offer a wide range of mounting options. Alternatively, flange mounting is possible. Next to our preferred models with two-sided force fixation, a wide range of alternatives can be configured. This even includes splash proof types.

V series

The Kuhnke V range also consist of single-stroke solenoids with closed housing and maintenance-free armature bearings. Models with a square form factor feature mounting holes at the side of the closed housing. The pushing force is applied via a threaded plunger, while the pulling force is applied via a double clevis. Electric connection is accomplished either via flying leads or a rectangular plug-in terminal.

Customized solutions

Single-stroke solenoids are also available in custom-designed versions or as reversing solenoids.

Individual solenoid designs for specific operating voltages or duty cycles are available on request. All models are also available with cable strands cut to a specific length or with plug-in terminals. Generally, these solenoids are designed for DC operation at a nominal operating voltage of 24 V. Using an additional external rectifier, models designed for 205 V DC operation can be operated directly at the mains power supply.
