Abstract

Results from the operation of an electromagnetic valve, that does not incorporate ferromagnetic materials, are presented. Image currents induced on a conducting disc placed near a pancake solenoid cause it to move away from the solenoid and open the vacuum seal. A new and important design feature is the use of Lip Seals for the sliding piston. The pressure rise in the test chamber is measured directly using a fast time response Baratron gauge. The valve injects over 200 Torr l of nitrogen in less than 3 ms, which remains unchanged at moderate magnetic fields.
