Abstract

An electromagnetically actuated piston slide valve includes a piston slide arrangement with a piston which is axially displaceable for regulating a free cross section of a fluid passage of the valve. The piston slide arrangement contains a first magnetic armature connected to the piston and a second magnetic armature which is axially displaceable with respect to the piston. The piston is axially displaceable against the force of a first biasing spring by generating an electromagnetic field through energizing a coil. A second biasing spring rests against the first magnetic armature and the second magnetic armature, so, in the unenergized state of the coil, the piston takes a predetermined position by axial displacement due to the force of the first biasing device against the force of the first biasing device. A permanent magnet generates an attractive force between the first and the second magnetic armature which counteracts the second biasing spring.
