Expanding solenoids of type group GSd are produced in sizes of 99 mm to 164 mm diameter and with stroke lengths between 2,5 mm and 4,0 mm.
So, these solenoids are featuring higher rated forces as compared with solenoids of type GS
of similar diameters.
The armature movements from stroke starting- to stroke limit-positions are performed by electromagnetic force; for resetting, an external power source (spring or weight) is needed.
