Especificacions

Configuració

The Yellow Jacket Solenoid Service Magnet requires no complex setup. It is a passive tool designed for immediate use. Ensure the magnet is clean and free of debris before application to a solenoid valve.

1. Identify the solenoid valve coil that needs to be manually operated or tested.
2. Ensure the valve area is accessible and safe to work on.
3. The magnet is ready for direct application.

Instruccions de funcionament

The solenoid service magnet can be used for several purposes:

1. Testing and Control

Use this magnet to test, troubleshoot, or manually activate and control solenoid valves. This includes direct connected or pilot-operated 2-way solenoids, 3-way reclaim valves, or 4-way reversing valves commonly found in reverse cycle air conditioners or heat pumps.

1. Locate the solenoid valve coil.
2. Place the Yellow Jacket Solenoid Service Magnet directly over the solenoid valve coil. The magnet's strong magnetic field will manually open the valve.
3. Observe the system's response to confirm valve operation or to control refrigerant flow.

2. Recovery and Evacuation

This magnet is useful for holding solenoid valves open during refrigerant recovery and system evacuation, allowing the entire system to be accessed and evacuated more efficiently.

1. For optimal recovery, remove the electrical solenoid coil from all normally closed valves (e.g., refrigerant control valves, hot gas defrost valves, reversing valves).
2. Apply the Yellow Jacket Solenoid Service Magnet to each valve where the coil was removed. This will hold the valve in an open position.
3. Proceed with the recovery or evacuation process. The open valves will help speed up the process by providing unrestricted flow paths.

3. Altres usos

• Hot Water Oil Shutoff Valves: Use in place of the power head on a hot water oil shutoff valve to eliminate the need to wait for the delay on open.
• Temporary Coil Replacement: Temporarily replace a faulty electrical coil to open a solenoid valve, allowing for system operation or diagnosis until a permanent replacement can be installed.
• Power On/Off Simulation: Use to simulate power being on or off to a solenoid valve, aiding in troubleshooting or system checks.

Manteniment

The Yellow Jacket Solenoid Service Magnet is a low-maintenance tool. To ensure its longevity and effectiveness:

• Keep the magnet clean and free from dirt, grease, and metal shavings. Wipe with a dry cloth as needed.
• Store the magnet in a dry place, away from excessive heat or strong magnetic fields that could potentially affect other sensitive equipment.
• Avoid dropping the magnet, as impact can damage its internal structure or outer casing.

Resolució de problemes

If the Solenoid Service Magnet does not appear to be working as expected:

• Verifica la ubicació: Ensure the magnet is correctly positioned directly over the solenoid valve coil. The magnetic field needs to align properly with the valve's internal components.
• Check Valve Type: Confirm that the valve you are attempting to operate is a solenoid valve designed to be manually actuated by an external magnetic field. Some valves may have different operating mechanisms.
• Inspeccionar per danys: Visually inspect the magnet for any signs of physical damage, such as cracks or deformation, which could impair its magnetic properties.
• Consider Valve Condition: If the valve is mechanically stuck or severely corroded, the magnet may not be strong enough to overcome the resistance. In such cases, the valve itself may require service or replacement.
