Default What makes it a 3 port Solinoid?

Is it the 3 pipes or the 3 wires?
My Solinoid has three pipes. One top, one bottom and one in the middle. But only has two wires coming from it.
Is mine a 3 port??

yes, it sounds like a 3 port. If it has connectors for 3 pipes then it is a 3 port, if it has connectors for 2 pipes then it is a 2 port. They all have 2 wires, one is power and one is ground.
