IEEE-library form of solenoid-valve no auxiliary contact: this form identifies a normally-open auxiliary contact associated with a solenoid valve.

## In plain English

### What does ANSI/IEEE Solenoid-valve NO auxiliary contact form mean?

This reference locates solenoid-valve no auxiliary contact in Autodesk's IEEE-oriented solenoids family. This form identifies a normally-open auxiliary contact associated with a solenoid valve. The public library uses HSV21 for its horizontal representation; this is a vendor block name, not an IEEE standards symbol number.

### A simple example

Read the operating mechanism and the contact reference state together. Cross-reference every associated contact to the same device and show which movement, signal or reset changes its condition; the symbol alone does not establish the complete switching sequence.

### What the drawings help you do

Cross-reference the operating mechanism or valve tag and state which position the contact reports. An auxiliary contact is not the power terminal of the solenoid coil. Cross-reference the operating mechanism or valve tag and state which position the contact reports. An auxiliary contact is not the power terminal of the solenoid coil. The linked functional counterpart explains the same operating role in its own drawing context; agreement of every detailed convention mark is not asserted.

### This particular reference

IEEE-library form of solenoid-valve no auxiliary contact: this form identifies a normally-open auxiliary contact associated with a solenoid valve. An auxiliary contact is not the power terminal of the solenoid coil.

### Terms

- Normally open / normally closed: The contact state in the normal condition defined for the drawing.
- Coil: A wound conductor that can produce a magnetic field when energised.
- Terminal: An identified point where a conductor connects.
