DRV120: Driving multiple solenoid valves in parallel

Part Number: DRV120
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DRV110

A total of 28 high pressure solenoid valves in 2 banks of 14 need to be held continuously on and de-energized for maintenance. Power budget is small and every saving helps. Used for compressed natural gas bottles i.e. hazardous area. Data from the GSR Ventiltechnik (valve manufacturer P/N 2/529-25-0815-.248 (with 30 W ATEX Coil):

1) Switching On current

p=350bar open at Imin~ 850mA min. pulse duration ~ tmin=500ms

p=450bar open at Imin~ 875mA min. pulse duration ~ tmin=500ms

2) Holding current

Holding current I~300mA low difference between 350 and 450bar

3) 24 Vdc 30 W

4) Railway service i.e. vibration

Is a packaged unit available using DRV120 PWM technology available for DIN rail mounting or otherwise for:

a. Energising each solenoid individually i.e. 28 devices?

b. Energizing each bank collectively i.e. 2 devices?
