SMC SY7220-5GZ-C8 Solenoid Valve

SMC SY7220-5GZ-C8 is a five-port, two-position solenoid valve from the SY7000 Series, designed for precise pneumatic control in automated systems. This body-ported, single-unit valve uses P, A, B, EA, and EB ports to shuttle compressed air between circuits, enabling reliable actuation of downstream cylinders and actuators. Constructed with an aluminum body, it offers a robust, lightweight solution for industrial environments. The valve operates with supply pressure up to 101 psi (7 bar) and a temperature range of -10 to 50 °C (14–122 °F), making it suitable for a wide range of factory settings. The SY7220 family provides flow characteristics with a Cv around 0.81–0.93, depending on port configuration, delivering adequate throughput for standard automation tasks without excessive pressure drop. An integrated pilot solenoid valve actuator drives the main valve, allowing precise, rapid shifting between positions. Typical applications include sequencing and control of pneumatic cylinders, rotary actuators, and other line-side air-powered devices in manufacturing, packaging, and assembly operations. The SY7220 series is part of SMC’s broad range of five-port, air-operated directional control valves, compatible with SY7000 accessories and mounting options for compact, modular automation solutions.
