Re: Air controlled solenoid valve
This is not a solenoid valve at all.
Solenoid valves are controlled by a solenoid, which is basically an electromagnet. This allows them to be activated electrically.
What you have there is an air-op valve. It, as you said, is controlled by a change in air pressure.
As far as I know, air-op valves are not legal for FRC use. I could be wrong on that though.
