Solenoid closing function for an open valve

This representation identifies the publisher's open-valve closing function associated with solenoid operation.

Drawing use: Schematic
Application: Control circuits
Reference family: IEC / Manufacturer
Form evidence: Solenoid closing function for an open valve. Autodesk IEC-60617 Symbol Preview — Solenoid actuator and feedback forms; vendor family reference, not certified IEC geometry or database identifier.

A distinction that matters

The wording must be checked against the selected valve; it does not prove a universal fail-open or fail-closed arrangement.

Relay coil

A relay coil represents an operating element that changes the state of associated contacts when the device operates. Coil and contact representations are often drawn in different locations to make the circuit easier to read. Their shared identifier and cross-references establish the relationship.

Drawing use: Schematic
Application: Control circuits
Reference family: IEC / IEEE / ANSI

A distinction that matters

A relay coil is not a contactor power pole. Similar operating-element marks can represent equipment with different switching duties.
