the present invention relates to an electromagnet valve including a valve housing in which a valve closure member is movably guided , a magnet armature fitted to the valve closure member and executing a stroke movement in the direction of a magnet core arranged in the valve housing in dependence on the electromagnetic excitation of a valve coil fitted on the valve housing , and a spring which , in the electromagnetically non - excited valve position , positions the magnet armature at a defined axial distance from the magnet core so that the magnet armature is separated from the magnet core by an interspace . in addition to spring , a spring element is interposed between the end surface of the magnet armature and the end surface of the magnet core .
