ABSTRACT:
A solenoid valve includes a body (2,25) with an internal intake pipe (26) and an internal outlet pipe (27), a coil (4) and a movable stem (3), urged by a spring (10) toward a valve closed position. The stem (3) defines, with a seat (30), an annular sealing surface (22), surrounded by a groove (17) and by an annular flange (18). The flange defines with an annular counterpart (25) placed opposite, an annular damping surface (23). The groove (17) communicates with the outlet pipe (27) through a longitudinal slot (12) provided in the stem (3). The annular flange (18) is in a position near or in contact with the counterpart (25) when the valve is closed. During a closing of the valve, the liquid between the annular flange (18) and the counterpart (25) escapes radially through the groove (17) from the annular damping surface. This produces a braking effect on the stem (3), to reduce wear on the annular sealing surface (22).
