SMC VQ1100-5E1 Three Way Pneumatic Solenoid Valve

SMC VQ1100-5E1 is a 5-port plug-in solenoid valve in the VQ1000 family, designed for compact pneumatic control in base-mounted, plug-in configurations. It is a two-position valve with five ports: P (pressure supply), A and B (actuator ports), and R1 and R2 (exhaust ports), enabling direct control of a single actuator or two circuits with independent venting. The unit typically operates on 24 V DC coils with low power consumption (about 0.4 W), and supports a supply pressure range of 0.1–0.7 MPa (1–7 bar), making it compatible with standard shop air systems. Typical applications include automation lines, pneumatic actuators and cylinders, and other compact machinery where space efficiency and fast, reliable switching are required. As part of the VQ1000 series, the VQ1100-5E1 integrates with common SMC manifolds and plug-in interfaces for straightforward installation and maintenance in industrial control schemes.
