Collection:SMC 5/2-Way In-Line Air Operated Valves VFA

SMC 5/2-Way In-Line Air Operated Valves VFA offer versatile solutions for pneumatic control systems. These valves are available in body ported or base mounted styles, providing flexibility in installation and integration. The VFA series is compatible with VF Series manifolds, allowing for easy system expansion or modification.

VFA valves come in three main sizes, each tailored to specific cylinder sizes and flow requirements. The VFA1000 is suitable for cylinders up to ø40, with a flow characteristic (Cv) of 0.13. For medium-sized applications, the VFA3000 accommodates cylinders up to ø80 and offers a Cv of 0.75. Larger systems benefit from the VFA5000, which is designed for cylinders up to ø125 and boasts a Cv of 2.9, ensuring efficient air flow in high-demand scenarios.

All VFA valves operate within a pressure range of 0.15 to 1.0 MPa, making them suitable for a wide array of industrial applications. When selecting a VFA valve, consider the required cylinder size, flow characteristics, and installation method to ensure optimal performance in your pneumatic system. The compatibility with VF Series manifolds also allows for future system expansion, providing long-term flexibility for evolving operational needs.
