Description
The JF-S0837DL is an open-frame push-pull DC solenoid designed for short-stroke linear actuation in access control, vending, and automation applications. It delivers a rated holding force of approximately 15N (≈1.5kg) across a 10mm stroke, making it suitable for electronic door locks, storage cabinets, file cabinets, and vending machine mechanisms . The solenoid uses a spring-return plunger: when the coil is energized, the plunger retracts to perform work; when power is removed, the internal spring returns it to the rest position . The open-frame construction features a metal housing with M3 threaded mounting holes, and the coil has no fixed polarity—the two wires can be connected either way with the same effect . Available in 6V, 12V, and 24V coil variants, the JF-S0837DL accommodates different DC power architectures while maintaining a compact frame size of approximately 51×20×26mm (excluding the latch) .
Important Note on Specifications: Listings for the JF-S0837DL show inconsistencies in current ratings across sources. The 12V variant is commonly rated at 1A, while the 24V variant is also listed at 1A by some suppliers but with measured current around 1.6A by others . A critical thermal constraint applies: maximum continuous activation time is approximately 10 seconds at full voltage; for longer holding periods, current must be reduced to 20–30% after the plunger retracts (e.g., via PWM) to prevent coil burnout .
Features
-
15N Holding Force with 10mm Stroke: Provides moderate actuation force suitable for electronic locks, cabinet latches, and dispensing mechanisms .
-
Push-Pull Operation with Spring Return: Plunger performs work when energized and automatically resets via internal spring when power is removed, simplifying mechanical design .
-
Compact Open-Frame Design: Frame dimensions of approximately 51×20×26mm allow integration into tight enclosures .
-
Multiple Voltage Options: Available in 6V, 12V, and 24V coil variants to match different DC power supply architectures .
-
Polarity-Independent Coil: The two coil wires can be connected either way with identical operating results .
-
M3 Threaded Mounting Holes: Integrated mounting points simplify secure attachment to brackets and panels .
-
Short-Duration Duty Design: Optimized for intermittent operation; maximum 10-second activation at full voltage .
-
PWM-Compatible for Extended Holding: Current can be reduced after plunger retraction to maintain holding force without overheating .
