1. Product Overview
The KEYESTUDIO 5V DC 25N Force Electric Lifting Magnet Solenoid Electromagnet Module is designed to generate a magnetic field from an electric current. This module utilizes the principle of electromagnetism, where a coil wound with pure copper wire concentrates the magnetic field, enabling strong suction capabilities.
Key features include:
- Small electromagnet induction with high strength suction.
- Built-in pure copper coil for strong conductivity and low power consumption.
- Electric iron shell for less remanence and strong magnetic conductivity.
- Integrated molding for durability.
2. Setup Instructions
To set up the electromagnet module with an Arduino Microcontroller Unit (MCU), follow these steps:
- Ensure your Arduino MCU is powered off before making connections.
- Connect the module to the Arduino MCU. Provide a 5V DC power supply to the module.
- Connect the SIG (Signal) pin of the electromagnet module to a PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) port on your Arduino board.

3. Operating Instructions
The magnetic field strength of the module can be adjusted by setting the PWM value on the connected Arduino port. The larger the PWM value, the stronger the magnetic field generated by the module.
- To activate the electromagnet, control the Signal end to a HIGH level.
- To deactivate the electromagnet, control the Signal end to a LOW level.
- When the PWM value is set to its maximum (255 for an 8-bit PWM), the module can achieve an adsorption force of 25N when an iron fitting touches the electromagnet component.
4. Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your KEYESTUDIO Electromagnet Module, consider the following maintenance guidelines:
- Keep the module clean and free from dust and debris. Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning.
- Avoid exposing the module to excessive moisture or corrosive environments.
- Handle the module with care to prevent physical damage to the coil or housing.
5. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your electromagnet module, consider these common troubleshooting steps:
- No Magnetic Force: Verify that the module is receiving the correct 5V DC power supply. Check all wiring connections to ensure they are secure and correctly aligned with the Arduino's pins (GND, VCC, SIG). Confirm that the Arduino code is correctly setting the PWM value and controlling the signal pin.
- Weak Magnetic Force: Ensure the PWM value is set appropriately for the desired magnetic strength. A higher PWM value (up to 255) will result in a stronger magnetic field. Check for any loose connections or insufficient power supply.
- Module Overheating: While some heat is normal during operation, excessive heat may indicate a short circuit or incorrect voltage/current. Disconnect power immediately and re-check your circuit and power supply specifications.
