Texas Industrial Remcor Solenoid Valves for Agriculture

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Texas Industrial Remcor, Inc. manufactures high-quality solenoid valves that play a crucial role in precise and reliable crop spraying for farmers. These valves, designed for low flows and quick component attachment, including 2-way and 3-way configurations, give farmers total control over spray tips and chemical application, ensuring efficient and effective crop nurturing.

Precision in Crop Spraying

Solenoid valves, available in normally closed, normally open, 2-way, and 3-way configurations Solenoid valves are a key component in precision agricultural spraying systems, offering reliable control of liquid distributions. They allow for precise control over the application of pesticides and other chemicals by rapidly cycling between open and closed states. This pulse width modulation (PWM) technology maintains constant pressure while varying flow rate, resulting in uniform spray patterns and droplet size, optimizing both gas and liquid systems. Solenoid valves, which can be normally open or normally closed, are installed on individual nozzles across the boom, with each valve capable of independent operation based on GPS location and plant canopy density. This targeted approach can significantly reduce chemical usage, drift, and runoff compared to conventional constant spraying. Advanced sprayer systems integrate solenoid valves with electronic control units, GPS, and in-cab computers for fully automated, variable-rate application and precise control of liquid flow. By optimizing chemical delivery, precision spraying with solenoid valves improves crop protection while minimizing environmental impact and input costs.

Durability and Reliability of TIR Valves

Texas Industrial Remcor (TIR) valves are known for their durability and reliability in demanding agricultural applications. TIR uses high-quality materials like brass and stainless steel to manufacture valves that can withstand corrosive chemicals, extreme temperatures, and high pressures, catering to both pneumatic and hydraulic systems. Proper valve stem torque and compatible O-rings further enhance the longevity of TIR valves in the field, ensuring reliable operation in both liquid and gas systems. While occasional leaks may occur due to debris or wear on valve cores, regular maintenance and replacement of worn components can keep TIR valves, including those used in pneumatic systems, operating reliably for many seasons. Farmers trust TIR’s rugged, dependable valves, including 2-way and 3-way configurations, for consistent performance in their precision spraying systems.

Innovative Technologies in Solenoid Valves

Recent innovations in pneumatic technologies solenoid valve technology, especially in industrial applications, are improving energy efficiency, reliability, and performance. Electronically enhanced solenoid valves incorporate advanced electronics to dramatically reduce power consumption to as low as 0.5 watts, while maintaining high flow rates and pressure ratings. Dual coil “kick and drop” technology provides a brief high-energy pulse to open the valve, then drops to a lower holding current, saving up to 80% in energy. Mechanical optimizations like tighter tolerances and larger orifices allow the latest low-power valves to handle demanding applications without clogging or sacrificing response times. These technological advancements enable solenoid valves to meet the evolving needs of process industries and OEMs for efficient, dependable, and standards-compliant valve solutions, whether for gas or liquid applications.

Advanced Control Systems for Sprayers

Advanced control systems are revolutionizing precision spraying in agriculture. These systems integrate solenoid valves with GPS, sensors, and onboard computers to enable highly targeted, variable-rate application of chemicals. Automatic section control uses GPS mapping to turn individual nozzles on and off based on location, preventing overlaps and skips. This can reduce input costs by 5-17%. Pulse width modulation (PWM) systems rapidly cycle nozzles to maintain optimal pressure and droplet size, even as speeds change. Sophisticated rate controllers, crucial in industrial applications, monitor factors like ground speed, flow rate, and pressure to make real-time adjustments and ensure consistent coverage. Some advanced systems can control multiple products simultaneously for variable-rate application of different chemicals. Remote monitoring capabilities allow operators to view and troubleshoot performance from the cab or office, enhancing the control of both pneumatic and hydraulic systems. By combining rugged, reliable hardware like solenoid valves with cutting-edge software and sensors, these advanced control systems are helping farmers spray smarter for improved efficiency and stewardship.
