(It is a / port valve that has an electrical throttle valve function.) A model that is suitable for operating conditions, such as the number of ports or maximum effective area, can be selected. Electro-pneumatic proportional valve: Pressure type (VEP) Controls the pressure steplessly according to current. Also, because the effective fully opened area of the exhaust side is identical due to its construction, this valve provides a large exhaust capacity and can be used as a relief valve.

Make sure to remove the retaining screw, insert the tip of a flat head screwdriver into the groove below the terminal block and pry it up to separate the terminal cover from the terminal block.. Securely connect the wires to the specified terminals in accordance with the wiring procedure. Wiring Terminal block Connection is not used for terminal and. Coil has no polarity. Pin plug shape Applicable cable (Heavy-duty cable) 0.75 mm,.5 mm / core, core (O.D. ø6.8 to ø.5) based on JIS C and C Outlet changing procedure To change the wire outlet, first separate the terminal cover from the terminal block. Then, reinstall the terminal cover in the desired direction (in 90 increments). Be sure to read before handling. Refer to pages -- to -- for Safety Instructions and Common Precautions. Caution Precautions. Air supply Poor quality air could increase the spool s sliding resistance, while preventing it from attaining its specified characteristics. Use compressor oil with a minimal generation of oxidants and install a mist separator (SMC s AM series). Refer to page --.. Mounting Vibrations are transmitted to the valve by the proportional solenoid s dither. If it is necessary to prevent the transmission of vibrations, insert vibration isolating rubber material. Thoroughly flush the pipe to completely eliminate any dust or scales from the pipe inside. Install a silencer (AN series) on the exhaust port. Be careful with the molded coil because it generates heat while current is applied to it.. Lubrication This product can be used without lubrication. But if lubricated, use turbin oil Class, ISO VG (with no additive). It is impossible to use spindle oil, machine oil, or grease.. Manual operation To check the operation of the valve without applying a current, remove the lock nut and use a screwdriver or the like to press the tip of the core. After checking the operation, reinstall the rubber cap in its original position.
