Using VK300 Series for Vacuum
If it is proposed to use the VK300 in Vacuum applications ensure that
the VK33*V, and VK33*W types are specified.
CAUTION
The preveous mentioned Valves differ from that of Vacuum retention
types.
When using Vacuum pads mount an Air suction filter (ZF Series)
between the Vacuum pad and the Valve to prevent dust from entering
the Valve.
Use a silencer in the Exhaust port.
CAUTION
Prolonged Energisation
Specify VK33*E Type for the above application and ensure that the
Valve is switched every 30 days. For Emergency Dump operation
please consult SMC.

Mixed Mounting of VK300 Series and VK3000 Series (Fig 4)
It is possible to mount the VK300 onto the Manifold base of the
VK3000 Series.
(1) When specifying VV5K3-20 or VV5K3-40, ensure that the
appropriate Exhaust Port on the Manifold base is PLUGGED
using a rubber plug part No. VK3000-8-1, as this Exhaust port
becomes redundant when mounting 3 port Valves.
(2) The 3 port Valve can also be mounted on additional Manifolds i.e.
VV5K3-21, VV5K3-(S)41 and VV5K3-(S) 42 without additional
modifications.

CAUTION
When converting a 5 port Valve, from 3 ports back to 5 ports
ensure that the exhaust plug is removed.
When a 3 port Valve (VK300) is Mounted onto the Manifold base
of the VK3000 Series, the Valve function will be NORMALLY
CLOSED. If a NORMALLY OPEN function is required plug port No. 4
of a 5 port Valve.
When piping from the Manifold base, the port No. 2, of the 3 port
Valve becomes the port No. 4 of the 5 port Valve. To avoid the
possibility of incorrect piping to the port No. 2 ensure that the
port No. 2 is plugged.
