SMC NVFS3101-3FZ Solenoid Pneumatic Control Valve

NVFS3101-3FZ is a 5-port, base-mounted, body-ported solenoid valve from SMC’s NVFS3100 family, engineered to switch compressed air to a pneumatic actuator in automated equipment. The valve is a two-position, single-solenoid design, offering straightforward on/off control and compatibility with common pneumatic manifolds. Port sizes range from 1/8 to 3/4 in NPTF, with options for Rc and G thread standards to fit different piping systems. Flow is rated with Cv around 1.3–1.4, depending on configuration, and the operating pressure range is 0.1 to 1 MPa (approximately 1 to 10 bar). Coil voltage and accessory options vary by exact unit and configuration, so the precise electrical spec should be verified on the specific NVFS3101-3FZ you plan to order. Typical applications include actuation of cylinders, grippers, and other pneumatic devices in manufacturing, packaging, and automation lines, where compact, reliable valve control is required. In common manifold or sub-base installations the NVFS3101-3FZ can simplify plumbing while delivering consistent performance across cycles.
