Refrigerant Solenoid Valves Market

Global Refrigerant Solenoid Valves Market – Introduction

Refrigerant solenoid valves are a crucial component as it controls the flow of refrigerant within the air conditioning system and refrigeration. It is an electromechanical valve used for control of liquid or gas flow. These valves are increasingly used in large scale industries due to usage of large refrigerators and air conditioners. Asia Pacific is expected to be a growing region for the refrigerant solenoid valves market owing to the growing demand for air conditioning systems and refrigeration systems. Rising investment in refrigerant solenoid valves across various industries in developing economies across the Asia Pacific region, development in manufacturing technologies, lower production costs of valves, growing global economies, and lower power consumption are the major driving factors of the market.

Global Refrigerant Solenoid Valves Market – Dynamics

Rapid increase in demand for air conditioners and refrigeration systems

The refrigerant solenoid valve is a vital component in any refrigeration system. Knowing how it works helps to ensure system benefits, such as leak prevention, energy efficiency, and overall refrigeration system protection. Rapid increase in adoption of air conditioners and refrigeration systems in residential and commercial sectors is anticipated to boost the demand for refrigerant solenoid valves.

Advanced Refrigeration Technology

The cryogen free dilution refrigerators market is anticipated to grow at a significant rate during the forecast period.  This technology works without valves and is expected to hinder the growth of the refrigerant solenoid valves market. Cryogen refrigerant technology is preferred in several industries such as nuclear power and computer science.
