Description
The JF-1683B is a high-power open-frame push-pull DC solenoid designed for demanding linear actuation requiring substantial force over a longer stroke. It delivers a rated holding force of 80N (≈8kg) across a 20mm stroke, making it suitable for heavier-duty applications such as vending machine mechanisms, sorting equipment, door locks, and industrial 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 copper coil for thermal stability, with a compact body measuring approximately 85 × 52 × 58mm and a total length of 143mm including the plunger .
Critical Note on Specifications: The JF-1683B is a high-current device, and this must be central to any design using it. The 12V variant is consistently rated at 10A across multiple sources , and the 24V variant is also listed at 10A . Your product title states 12A for 12V and 10A for 24V, which is broadly consistent with the 10A figure for 24V but higher than the 10A commonly reported for 12V. This solenoid cannot be driven by any microcontroller directly—it requires a high-current MOSFET or relay rated for at least 15A continuous, with a power supply capable of delivering 10A or more at the selected voltage. The solenoid is intended for intermittent operation only—sources recommend a maximum single activation time ranging from 2 seconds to 1 minute, with the more conservative 2-second guidance appearing frequently due to the high current and rapid heat generation .
Features
-
80N High Force with 20mm Stroke: Delivers substantial actuation force over a longer stroke for heavier-duty mechanisms in vending, sorting, and access control equipment .
