SMC VFS2310 Valve

SMC VFS2310 is a 5‑port pilot‑operated solenoid valve in the VFS series, designed for compact, reliable pneumatic control in automation lines. It uses a 3‑position, closed‑center configuration that directs supply to two working ports while providing exhaust paths, making it suitable for controlling double‑acting cylinders and pilot devices in tight spaces. The valve body supports Rc 1/8 port sizing and accommodates operating pressures up to 101 psi (0.7 MPa), aligning with light‑ to medium‑duty industrial applications. Coil configurations include 24 VDC variants such as the VFS2310‑5DZ‑02, a dual‑coil model used to operate the pilot and main valve functions. Some versions are designed for direct piping with metal‑seal construction and non plug‑in bases (for example VFS2310‑1G‑02), offering direct connection options in confined layouts. Typical applications encompass automated packaging lines, manufacturing cells, and general machinery where a compact 5‑port, 3‑position closed‑center valve from SMC is needed to precisely modulate pneumatic actuation, with multiple mounting and piping options to fit manifold or direct‑piping configurations.
