Electromagnetically actuatable metering valve, method for operating an electromagnetically actuatable metering valve

Abstract

The invention relates to an electromagnetically actuatable metering valve for liquids and/or gases, comprising: a valve housing (1); a valve seat element (2) which is connected to the valve housing (1) and in which at least one outlet opening (3) is formed; and a magnetic armature (4) which can move in a stroke-like manner relative to the valve seat element (2) and which is securely connected to a plate- or disc-shaped valve closing element (5) for opening and closing the at least one outlet opening (3) or which forms same; as well as a magnetic core (6) opposite the magnetic armature (4) at a working air gap (14) and at least one spring (7) pretensioning the magnetic armature (4) and the valve closing element (5) in the closing direction. According to the invention, the magnetic armature (4) and the valve closing element (5) are loaded in a targeted asymmetrical manner and/or are shaped in a targeted asymmetrical manner The invention also relates to a method for operating a metering valve for liquids and/or gases.
