Abstract
An electromagnetic actuator with at least one solenoid coil, one armature, which is magnetically movable by means of the solenoid coil in an armature area and has a first and a second tapering, and a magnetic yoke. The yoke has a first dipping stage in which the first tapering of the armature is dipped upon a shifting of the armature in a direction of actuation, and a second dipping stage in which the second tapering of the armature is dipped upon a shifting of the armature in the direction of actuation. A maximum radial external dimension of the armature in the area of the second tapering is smaller than a minimum radial internal dimension of the second dipping stage. In addition, the invention refers to a fluid valve that is actuated by means of the electromagnetic actuator.
