Solenoid Coil Fault Diagnosis &Solenoid Coil Replacement Guide

Solenoid coil fault symptoms and cause analysis:

1. The solenoid coil without suction.

 • Cause: It may be that the power supply voltage is too low, the wire is broken or short-circuited inside the coil, or there is a foreign object between the armature and the core that hinders the magnetic field.

 • Solution: Check whether the power supply voltage is within the rated range, use a multimeter to detect whether the coil is broken or short-circuited, and clear foreign objects between the armature and the iron core.

2. The solenoid coil overheating.

 • Cause: The power supply voltage is too high, which increases the current, causing internal short circuit in the coil, poor heat dissipation, and frequent operation leading to heat accumulation.

 • Solution: Adjust the power supply voltage to the appropriate range, check and repair the coil short circuit problem, improve heat dissipation conditions, and reduce frequent operations.

3. The solenoid coil noise is to large.

 • Cause: Loose core causes vibration, unstable power supply voltage causes magnetic field fluctuations, poor fit between armature and core, and loose installation of coil.

 • Solution: Tighten the iron core, stabilize the power supply voltage, adjust the fit between the armature and the iron core, and reinforce the coil installation.

4. The solenoid coil is burned out.

 • Cause: Long-term overload, short-circuit fault not eliminated in time, and harsh working environment accelerated aging and damage.

 • Solution: Avoid long-term overload, handle short-circuit faults promptly, and improve the working environment.

5. The solenoid coil response time is too long.

  • Cause: Inappropriate coil parameters, drive circuit problems, mechanical part jamming affecting the movement speed.

 • Solution: Select a coil with appropriate parameters, check and adjust the drive circuit, and eliminate mechanical jamming problems.

Solenoid coil replacement steps:

1.  Determine the equipment for solenoid coil replacement and prepare new solenoid coils of appropriate specifications.

Before performing solenoid coil replacement, make sure that the parameters of the new solenoid coil match the original coil to ensure the normal operation of the equipment.

2. Turn off the power of the equipment to ensure safe operation.

This is an important prerequisite for solenoid coil replacement. The solenoid coil replacement should not be performed at any time while the unit is energized to avoid danger.

3. Locate the old solenoid coil.

Solenoid coil replacement usually requires disassembly of the device housing or related components. During disassembly process, be careful to avoid damaging other components. Also, it is necessary to remember the installation position and connection method of the various components, so that it can be correctly restored when installing the new solenoid coil.

4. Remove the old solenoid coil.

The solenoid coil replacement at this step requires extreme caution and may require the use of tools such as screwdrivers, wrenches, etc. When removing the old solenoid, be careful not to damage surrounding wiring and components. If the old solenoid coil is tightly connected to other components, you can mark the connection position in advance so that you can connect it accurately when installing the new solenoid coil.

5. Clean the installation location.

Solenoid coil replacement after moving the old solenoid coil, clean the installation location to remove dust, oil and other impurities to ensure that the new solenoid coil can be installed firmly.

6. Install the new solenoid coil.

Install the new solenoid coil on the device in the correct direction and position, ensuring that the gap between the coil and the core is appropriate. During installation, be careful not to damage the insulation layer of the coil.

7. Connect the lines.

The solenoid coil replacement requires that the circuit of the new solenoid coil be correctly connected according to the circuit diagram of the equipment. When connecting the circuit, make sure the connections are secure to avoid looseness or poor contact.

8. Check the installation

After completing the solenoid coil replacement, conduct a comprehensive inspection of the installation to ensure that the coil is firmly installed and the line connection is correct. You can gently shake the coil gently to check if it is loose.

9. Turn on the device power and test it.

After confirming that the installation is correct, turn on the device and test it. After solenoid coil replacement, observe the working condition to see if there are any abnormal phenomena. If any problem is found, turn off the power supply in time for inspection and adjustment.

10. Complete the solenoid coil replacement.

If the test result is normal, it means that the solenoid coil has been replaced successfully. At this point, the device housing can be installed and the entire solenoid coil replacement process is completed.

Some suggestions from HANUMAN.

When performing solenoid coil replacement, you must be careful and strictly follow the steps. Only by performing solenoid coil replacement correctly can the normal operation of the equipment be guaranteed and the solenoid coil replacement process be safe and smooth. And in the solenoid coil replacement, pay attention to be sure to choose reliable quality solenoid coil replacement, so as to ensure the long-term stable operation of the equipment.

In daily use, we should also pay attention to the maintenance and care of the solenoid coil, regularly check the working status of the coil, and promptly discover and deal with problems in order to extend the service life of the solenoid coil. If multiple solenoid coil replacements are required, which need to be done one by one to avoid confusion. After solenoid replacement, perform a comprehensive test on the equipment to ensure that all solenoids are functioning properly.

Solenoid coil replacement requires certain skills and experience. If you are not sure you can complete the replacement work, it is best to ask a professional to do it.
