Abstract
The present invention relates to an electromagnetic valve which includes a valve housing with a valve seat member and a valve closure member controlled by a magnet armature, a valve coil arranged close to the magnet armature and delimited by a yoke ring, and a housing portion which closes the valve housing and on which the magnet armature is supported. The valve housing, the housing portion closing the valve housing, the yoke ring and the magnet armature are made of a magnetic-flux conductive material, and the magnetic circuit between the yoke ring and the valve housing is closed by way of a ferromagnetic annular piece fitted to the valve housing and/or by way of a ferromagnetic accommodating member which carries the valve housing.
