Source Valve

AI Thread Summary

The discussion centers on finding a manufacturer for a 12 VDC reversing valve with a solenoid coil. The original poster has already checked Danfoss, Ranco, and Parker without success. A suggestion was made to consider Rucker as a potential source. Ultimately, the original poster found the needed valve at Grainger. The conversation highlights the challenges in sourcing specific valve components.

I have had trouble finding a source for a reversing valve manufacturer that carries a 12 vdc solenoid coil

Any leads would be helpful. I have tried Danfoss, Ranco, and Parker, but to not avail.

Thanks in advance for the help.

How about Rucker?

Grainger ended up having the one I needed. Thanks anyway.

Thread 'Bubble formation in 4 mm gap vessel'

How did you find PF?: Via Google search Hi, I have a vessel I 3D printed to investigate single bubble rise. The vessel has a 4 mm gap separated by acrylic panels. This is essentially my viewing chamber where I can record the bubble motion. The vessel is open to atmosphere. The bubble generation mechanism is composed of a syringe pump and glass capillary tube (Internal Diameter of 0.45 mm). I connect a 1/4” air line hose from the syringe to the capillary The bubble is formed at the tip...

Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'

Scenario 1 (figure 1) A continuous loop of elastic material is stretched around two metal bars. The top bar is attached to a load cell that reads force. The lower bar can be moved downwards to stretch the elastic material. The lower bar is moved downwards until the two bars are 1190mm apart, stretching the elastic material. The bars are 5mm thick, so the total internal loop length is 1200mm (1190mm + 5mm + 5mm). At this level of stretch, the load cell reads 45N tensile force. Key numbers...

Thread 'Find 3D Printer & Software Resources for Prototype Creation'

I'd like to create a thread with links to 3-D Printer resources, including printers and software package suggestions. My motivations are selfish, as I have a 3-D printed project that I'm working on, and I'd like to buy a simple printer and use low cost software to make the first prototype. There are some previous threads about 3-D printing like this: https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/are-3d-printers-easy-to-use-yet.917489/ but none that address the overall topic (unless I've missed...
