ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a method and apparatus for recognizing the impact time of a solenoid valve armature during de-energizing. In order to obtain a detectable impact signal of the armature, a measuring current is provided in the magnet coil during the armature's downward movement to generate a magnetic measuring field. When this magnetic measuring field is changed due to the armature movement, an induction voltage is generated, which is monitored to detect the time of impact of the armature.
