    Hi Aemal,

    I don't know your location but here is the US a company named Grainger has a system of solenoid valves and coils where you can pick the type and volume of the valve and match it to a coil with the voltage and current type that you need for your application. Here is a link.

     

    http://www.grainger.com/category/plumbing-plumbing-valves-solenoid-valves-and-coils/ecatalog/N-ri2/Ntt-solenoid+valves?nls=3&ssf=3&sst=subset&ts_optout=true

     

    I am sure that there are many other sources. In your location seek out a company that repairs dental equipment and they may have a source as well as used solenoids in case you just want to experiment.

    I bought 12V solenoid valve from local store just for experimental purpose and it worked ,its china made and not expensive. I need it to control inflammable gas through mq4 sensor.

    Have a look of below link.
