Hi TF
washing machine solenoids will handle 10bar (~150psi), over here they have a 3/4" bsp threaded inlet for the hose connection and a barbed outlet that accepts a 1/2" bore tube.
Hi Fatman, i guess either way,economics will favour large scale but in most cases anyone looking at a commercial scale operation isn`t likely to use aeroponics.

yes, water is virtually uncompressible, hence the water pump only compresses air held in the accumulator tank I agree that the most expensive option is a high pressure pump (without a tank) to feed the nozzles directly. HP aero gained much of its reputation for killing pumps and being unreliable using that approach.It is a fact of Physics that it is much easier and therefore cheaper to compress air than it is to compress a fluid.
