Collection:SMC 3/2-Way Finger Operated Pneumatic Valves VHK

SMC 3/2-Way Finger Operated Pneumatic Valves VHK offer versatile control options for pneumatic systems. These valves feature a large effective area ranging from 2.0 to 17.5mm², providing efficient air flow control. Available in both 2-port and 3-port configurations, they accommodate various pneumatic circuit designs and applications.

The VHK series is designed for ease of use, with a clear valve direction indicator that shows whether the valve is open or closed. Users can quickly identify the valve's status, as the shut-to-open operation is counter-clockwise. To further enhance usability, the valves employ a color-coded system: gray knobs for 2-port valves and blue knobs for 3-port valves, allowing for quick identification in complex systems.

These finger-operated valves are engineered to handle a maximum operating pressure of 1.0MPa, making them suitable for a wide range of industrial pneumatic applications. The series starts with a minimum tube outer diameter of ø4, ensuring compatibility with various pneumatic system setups. For environments requiring enhanced safety measures, an optional flame-resistant model is available, featuring distinctive red knobs for both 2-port and 3-port configurations.

When selecting SMC 3/2-Way Finger Operated Pneumatic Valves VHK, consider the required port configuration, effective area needs, and whether flame resistance is necessary for the intended application. These factors will help in choosing the most appropriate valve for specific pneumatic control requirements.
