Application; Specifications; How To Order - SMC Networks VM1000 Series Operation Manual

2. Application

VM1000 mechanical valve is applied to a pneumatics air pressure control circuit in a machine tool, a
small-size industrial machine, and others as a signal valve.
For actuator types, a roller lever for mechanical operation, and push button and flip toggle for manual
operation are available.
For piping, tubes with an inside diameter of ø2.5 to ø3 are appropriate in general.
- Features
1. VM1000 mechanical valve has a cuboid shape, which facilitates easy installation. The installation
dimensions are the same as micro switches for electrical circuits.
2. As the valve has a poppet valve structure, the motion made for opening the valve is small.
3. As the structure does not allow air to flow out from the supply port to the discharge port, at the time of
switching of the valve, air is not wasted.
