Abstract: A three way solenoid valve comprising a housing which contains a cylindrical cavity around which an electric coil is disposed. Two seats extend perpendicularly relative to the cavity axis and are arranged opposite one another. The seats communicate respectively with an inlet orifice and an outlet orifice. A work orifice communicates with the cavity. A core of ferromagnetic material is mounted with axial clearance in the cavity and two valve closure members are mounted in the core and capable of cooperating with the seats in accordance with the reciprocations of the core. A return spring urges the core with a position in which one of the valve seats is closed.
