Collection:SMC Air Operated Base Mounted Valves VFA

SMC Air Operated Base Mounted Valves VFA offer versatile solutions for pneumatic control systems. These 5-port valves come in body ported or base mounted styles, providing flexibility in installation and application. Compatible with VF Series manifolds, the VFA valves ensure seamless integration into existing systems.

Operating within a pressure range of 0.15 to 1.0 MPa, these valves cater to a wide array of industrial applications. The VFA series is available in three sizes, each designed for specific cylinder diameters: VFA1000 for ø40 cylinders, VFA3000 for ø80 cylinders, and VFA5000 for ø125 cylinders. This range allows users to select the most appropriate valve for their particular pneumatic system requirements.

Flow characteristics vary across the series, offering options to suit different flow rate needs. The VFA1000 provides a Cv value of 0.13, ideal for applications requiring precise control with smaller cylinders. The VFA3000 steps up to a Cv of 0.75, suitable for medium-sized systems. For high-flow applications, the VFA5000 delivers a substantial Cv of 2.9, ensuring efficient operation of larger cylinders.

When selecting an SMC Air Operated Base Mounted Valve VFA, consider the required operating pressure, cylinder size, and flow characteristics to ensure optimal performance in your pneumatic system. The compatibility with VF Series manifolds also makes these valves an excellent choice for system upgrades or expansions.
