SMC VQC4200-5 Pneumatic Valve

The SMC VQC4200-5 is a five-port, two-position base-mounted solenoid valve in the VQC4000 family, designed to switch compressed air to a pneumatic actuator in a compact 5/2 configuration. It is a plug-in, base-mounted unit powered by a 24 V DC coil, offering easy field service and replacement in automation lines. The valve operates over a pressure range of 0.15 to 1 MPa, with flow characteristics listed as Cv around 1.5 for the primary path (A/B to EA/EB) and about 1.7 for the alternate path, depending on porting and mounting details. As part of SMC's densely packaged pneumatic offerings, the VQC4200-5 is well-suited for space-constrained circuits in packaging equipment, conveyors, and general factory automation where reliable, repeatable direction control is required.
