SMC VQ1101-5 Valve

SMC VQ1101-5 is a compact, five-port, two-position solenoid valve designed for direct mounting on SMC VQ1000-series manifolds. This 5/2 valve uses a +24 VDC coil to switch compressed air between two circuit paths, with one pressure inlet, two outlet/work ports, and two exhaust ports, enabling actuation of a pneumatic cylinder or actuator. It is rated for up to 0.5 MPa (72.5 psi) system pressure and features a 6 mm tube bore for standard pneumatic tubing, commonly paired with CJ2 fittings and VQ1000 manifold assemblies. The VQ1101-5 is offered in plug-in configurations within the VQ1000 family and is compatible with other VQ components for consistent footprints across manifolds. Designed for reliability in pneumatic control, this valve provides two-position actuation to route air to a cylinder or other actuator, and is suitable for applications requiring a compact valve on automation lines, packaging equipment, or OEM automation assemblies.
