ABSTRACT:
A valve element for opening and closing a flow path can be reliably set to an opening position and a closing position. The valve element for opening and closing a communication opening portion communicating with an inflow hole and an outflow hole is provided in a valve receiving chamber formed in a valve block, and a valve magnet is provided in the valve element. A driving magnet can be moved to approach to and separate from the valve element by a pneumatic cylinder. When the driving magnet approaches to the valve element, the valve element moves to a closing position where the communication opening portion is closed. When the driving magnet separates from the valve element, the valve magnet provided in the valve element is attracted to a magnetic member, so that the valve element is kept at an opening position where the communication opening portion is opened.
