Description
The JF-0837B is a compact open-frame push-pull DC solenoid designed for short-stroke linear actuation requiring moderate force output. It delivers approximately 15N (≈1.5kg) of holding force across a 10mm stroke, making it suitable for latching, locking, dispensing, sorting, and light punching mechanisms in vending machines, access control systems, office equipment, and automation devices . The solenoid uses a spring-return plunger: when the coil is energized, the plunger moves to perform work; when power is removed, the internal spring returns it to the rest position . The open-frame construction features a metal housing and copper coil, with integrated M3 mounting holes for secure installation . Available in 12V and 24V coil variants, the JF-0837B accommodates different DC power architectures while maintaining a compact body size of approximately 37×26×20mm .
Important Note on Specifications: Listings for the JF-0837B show notable inconsistencies in current ratings across different sources. The 12V variant is variously described as drawing 1A and 2A depending on the seller . The 24V variant is listed at 1A by one source . Buyers should verify the actual specifications of their specific unit with the supplier before finalizing driver and power supply designs.
Features
-
15N Holding Force with 10mm Stroke: Provides moderate actuation force suitable for latching, locking, and dispensing tasks in light commercial equipment .
-
Push-Pull Operation with Spring Return: The plunger performs work when energized and automatically resets via internal spring when power is removed, simplifying mechanical design .
-
Compact Open-Frame Design: Body dimensions of approximately 37×26×20mm allow integration into tight enclosures while the open coil form provides efficient heat dissipation .
-
Threaded Plunger Tail: The plunger tail has an M3 threaded hole, allowing attachment of screws or rods to convert the solenoid for push or pull operation .
-
Multiple Voltage Options: Available in 12V and 24V coil variants to match different DC power supply architectures .
-
Durable Construction: Copper coil with good temperature stability, stainless steel plunger, and sturdy metal housing rated for extended cycle life .
-
Intermittent Duty Design: Intended for short-duration energization; one source recommends power-on time not exceeding one minute to prevent coil overheating .
