SMC electro-pneumatic Valve
Get Price Quote
SMC electro-pneumatic valve (often called an SMC solenoid valve) is a device that uses an electrical signal to control compressed air flow in pneumatic systems.
🔧 What it is
An electro-pneumatic valve from SMC Corporation combines:
Electrical control (solenoid coil)
Pneumatic actuation (air pressure)
When voltage (like 24V DC) is applied, the solenoid moves an internal spool or poppet, allowing or blocking airflow.
👉 These are widely used in:
Industrial automation machines
PLC-controlled systems
Robotics and packaging lines
⚙️ Common Types of SMC Electro-Pneumatic Valves
SMC offers many configurations depending on application �:
SMC +1
2/2 way valve – simple ON/OFF air control
3/2 way valve – used for single-acting cylinders
5/2 way valve – for double-acting cylinders (very common)
5/3 way valve – for intermediate stop positions
They can also be:
Direct operated (small flow, fast response)
Pilot operated (larger flow, more power-efficient)
