SOGAV™ 36
Solenoid Operated Gas Admission Valve
Applications
The SOGAV™ (Solenoid Operated Gas Port fuel
Admission Valve) 36 is an electrically admission for
actuated, high response gas admission improved cylinder-
valve for in-manifold (port) fuel to-cylinder control
admission. The SOGAV 36 valve is
designed for use on four-cycle, All-electric
turbocharged, natural gas or dual-fuel actuation
engines. One SOGAV 36 valve is
required for each cylinder. Fast response
The SOGAV valve is the electro- Simple installation
mechanical portion of an overall
Woodward fuel admission system Electronic fuel
consisting of: injection
In-Pulse™ electronic fuel injection technology for
control four-stroke
Main speed/air-fuel ratio/engine engines
sequencing control (must regulate
air manifold and gas manifold
For new engines
pressures as well as fuel admission) and retrofits
Other necessary valves, actuators, Choice of sizes
regulators, sensors, cables, and
safety devices Works with
Woodward
Governing is done by valve opening duration and/or gas pressure modulation.
In-Pulse™
The SOGAV 36 valve is typically suitable for (but not restricted to) engines in the electronics
150–180 mm bore size range. A thorough sizing analysis must be performed for any
new application, since fuel properties and engine use can affect valve choice. CSA Class I,
The SOGAV36 valve’s E-core solenoid has a short travel and high output force Division 2, Groups
which result in fast and consistent opening and closing response. The valve is a A, B, C, D
face-type poppet with multiple concentric grooves. The moving metering plate is
spring-loaded and pressure-loaded in the close direction. CE Compliant

Specifications
CONSTRUCTION
Materials All parts exposed to the gas are resistant to corrosion and stress
corrosion cracking.
Mounting May be mounted in any configuration with the solenoid axis greater than
horizontal, placing the solenoid higher than the metering plates.
However, a vertical orientation (valve outlet facing downward) is
preferred and will substantially increase valve life versus a horizontal
orientation.
Gas Inlet Hole Diameter 30 mm
ENVIRONMENT
Operating Temperature –20 to +105 °C (–4 to +221 °F)
Vibration Contact Woodward for vibration qualification data and analysis.
Humidity, Salt Spray, Pressure Wash The unit withstands exposure to pressure washing, salt spray, etc.,
without adverse corrosion or infiltration.
