Force or Torque Required
Specify initial requirements
Stroke
Stroke is expressed in degrees of rotation for rotary solenoids and movement in mm for Linear Solenoids. Specify direction and angle of rotation (viewed on Armature Plate) for Rotary Solenoids. Specify Push or Pull operation and movement required for Linear Solenoids
Duty Cycle
Duty cycle is expressed as a percentage of the on time in a total time taken for 1 cycle of operation. If in doubt specify maximum on time and minimum off time for 1 cycle
Power Source
Specify working voltage tolerances and any current limitations
Ambient Temperature
Specify working ambient temperature
