Abstract
The armature and active seat of an electromagnetic PWM valve are selectively case hardened at their contacting surfaces to a case depth of approximately 0.50 mm. The hardened areas provide hard contacting surfaces for superior durability, and moreover, create an effective air gap between the armature and the active seat to substantially prevent residual magnetism therebetween. The remaining surfaces of the armature and seat assembly are not hardened, and serve as a low reluctance magnetic flux path around the hardened areas.
