Described herein is a solenoid valve (1) comprising three mouths (2,4,6) and three operating positions (P1,P2,P3), in which the three mouths (2,4,6) comprise: - a first mouth (2) for inlet of a working fluid, and - a second mouth (4) and a third mouth (6) for outlet of the working fluid, and wherein the three operating positions (P1,P2,P3) comprise: - a first operating position (P1) in which a passage of fluid from the first mouth (2) to the second mouth (4) and the third mouth (6) is enabled, - a second operating position (P2) in which a passage of fluid from the first mouth (2) to only one (6) of said second and third mouths (4,6) is enabled, and - a third operating position (P3) in which the passage of fluid from the first (2) to the second mouth (4) and the third mouth (6) is disabled. The solenoid valve (1) further comprises an electromagnet (8), which can be controlled for causing a switching of the operating position (P1,P2,P3) and a moving element comprising a first open/close element (12) and a second open/close element (14) designed to co-operate, respectively, with a first contrast seat (A1) and a second contrast seat (A2) for controlling the passage of fluid from the first mouth to the second and third mouths providing the aforesaid three operating positions (P1,P2,P3).
