Troubleshooting
Solenoid coil not activating
Verify that the 24V DC power supply is active and correctly connected to the plug socket. Check for secure connections at both the socket and the power source. Ensure the solenoid coil is compatible with the plug socket and rated for 24V DC.
Intermittent connection or power loss
Inspect the cable for any kinks, cuts, or damage. Ensure the plug is firmly seated in the solenoid coil and the power connection is secure. Check for corrosion or debris on the connector pins.
Socket not fitting solenoid coil
Confirm that the solenoid coil uses either plug pattern form C (EN 175301-803) or EB, as specified for this socket. Attempting to force an incompatible connector can cause damage.
