Direct operated 5/2-way solenoid valve VK3000
5/2-, 5/3-, 2x3/2-way Solenoid Valves
The VK3000 series comprises direct-operated 5/2-way solenoid valves from SMC. With direct actuation the solenoid switches the valve without pilot control, allowing short switching times and operation even without minimum pressure.
The roughly 20 items include single valves as well as manifold bases for building up valve manifolds. They allow single or several VK3000 valves to be combined.
Direct-operated 5/2-way valves switch the air flow directly via the solenoid actuator without an upstream pilot stage. As a result they operate across the whole pressure range down to very low pressures.
VK3000 valves control double-acting pneumatic cylinders where direct switching without minimum pilot pressure is required. Using manifold bases they can be combined into valve manifolds.
