Solenoid Valves

SMC's solenoid valve product line covers single-solenoid and double-solenoid 5/2-way, 5/3-way, 3/2-way, and 2/2-way configurations in base-mounted and individual manifold arrangements. The SY series valve family is one of the most widely used in industrial automation globally, available in D-sub, EtherNet/IP, and PROFIBUS manifold configurations for direct PLC integration. Valve island systems allow multiple solenoid valves to be assembled on a single manifold body with centralized air supply and exhaust, reducing installation footprint and simplifying pneumatic circuit plumbing on machines with many actuators.

Applications

  • Directional control of pneumatic cylinder double-acting and single-acting functions.
  • Valve island systems for centralized air distribution on machines with many actuators.
  • EtherNet/IP and PROFIBUS valve manifolds for direct PLC I/O output control.
  • Proportional valve control of flow rate and pressure for force-controlled applications.
  • High-speed solenoid valves for fast-cycling packaging and assembly machine functions.

Key Features

  • SY series 5/2 and 5/3-way solenoid valves in 3.5 W and 2 W low-power coils.
  • Base-mount manifold systems with M8, D-sub, EtherNet/IP, and PROFIBUS interfaces.
  • Individual mount and subplate mount variants for space-constrained installations.
  • 4/5-port valve bodies in 1/8" to 1" port sizes for all cylinder size ranges.
  • Pilot-operated and direct-operated types for low-pressure and vacuum applications.
