What is this air valve called/used for

Putting a 95 LT1 engine in a streetrod and stripping it down to bare essentials (have benchtop cables to program the ecm).

EVAP purge solenoid. When it opens, engine vacuum from the passenger side of the throttle body pulls the hydrocarbon vapor out of the carbon canister in the driver rear fender:
