SMC brings a new meaning to compact valve manifolds

Machine builders looking for a small, extremely compact, valve manifold unit for use with air operated 3 Port solenoid valves now have the solution with the launch of SMC´s new Series VV061. Developed initially following Life Science Industry requests and particularly suitable for pilot valve and small actuator and pin cylinder applications, SMC´s R&D engineers have created a fully integrated manifold which incorporates the valves, printed circuit board and fittings in one, single, compact unit.

Designed for use with SMC´s 6mm wide V060 valves, in either four or eight valve configurations, the complete unit only measures 38.6mm wide, 31.5mm deep and either 26mm or 38mm high respectively. Weighing only 75grams or 47grams dependant on the selected model the, CE, UL and CSA compliant, VV061 can be ordered with either 2mm one-touch or 4mm barb type fittings. Suitable for either panel or bracket mounting depending on your needs, ease of maintenance is also ensured as the manifold can simply be detached from the piping plate and electrical connector cable. V060 valve options include both standard 0.5W and low consumption power saving 0.23W models which are particularly useful for lengthy continuous applications
