Not every job requires a high-volume, high-pressure pump; there are applications for which solenoid pumps are perfect. With only one moving part, a solenoid pump is the best choice for low-pressure jobs.

If you run a restaurant and rely on your coffee makers and air conditioning unit to keep your customers happy, you are also relying on solenoid pumps. Purchasing a new solenoid pump is much more cost effective than replacing an entire air conditioner and is as simple as going to the Internet and finding a quality provider. In order to find solenoid pump information on the models you'll need, you'll need to consider:

1. How much fluid will your solenoid pump need to handle?

2. What are the fluid properties of the liquid that you'll be pumping (i.e.,viscosity and chemical makeup)?

3. What options you want on your solenoid pump (digital or analog controls, flow-meter, timers)?



Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done

Compare a number of models before making the final decision on which solenoid pump to purchase


Solenoid pumps have different qualities and pricing; comparing your options will allow you to pick the right pump for the job, and not overbuy.

I recommend: A water solenoid pump from Ako-Pump is perfect for all of your equipment that pumps lightweight liquids. You can contact them either through the Internet, or by phone. Pump Agents has a great number of vendors at their disposal. You can contact them for all of your solenoid pumps, whether you need a heat pump solenoid or even micro solenoid pumps for equipment that requires extreme accuracy.

Pump fuel with the the aid of a specialized solenoid pump


Look for fuel solenoid pumps to handle all your heavy-duty fuel pumping needs.

I recommend: Nextag is a company that allows you to buy solenoid pumps from a variety of manufacturers. It offers high-quality, low-cost pumps for fuel usage. Carter Fuel Pumps is one of the leading manufacturers for in-line electric fuel pump solenoid applications. Its online solenoid pumps provide what you need to get the job done, and their technicians can answer your questions, via email or a toll-free number.

Purchase the solenoid pumps that have only the options that you need


You don't always need a pump with all the bells and whistles. The simpler the pump's construction, the more reliable it will be.

I recommend: Valcor has a number of pumps with varying degrees of complexity. Based upon your needs, their agents will be able to direct you to a pump that will fulfill your expectations. Bio-Chemvalve has not just the pump that you'll need, but you can also buy solenoid pump accessories that will make that pump function to the best of its ability. They offer complete fluid solutions for your needs, whether you run a lab or a manufacturing facility.

Tips & Tactics
Helpful advice for making the most of this Guide

  • It's not always possible to know your exact specification and how much fluid you will need to pump. Seek the advice of a professional who has years of experience selling, manufacturing or installing solenoid pumps. An auto mechanic who has installed fuel solenoid pumps or an appliance repair man can provide useful knowledge.
