SMC VSS8-6-FG-D-3EZ-V1-Q Pneumatic Valve Stack

SMC VSS8-6-FG-D-3EZ-V1-Q is a compact valve stack in SMC's VSS/VSR family that bundles multiple 5/2 solenoid valves into a single manifold for compact, modular pneumatic control. The model designates an 8‑channel stack featuring FG‑D (double solenoid, metal body) with an ISO plug‑in coil interface (ISO1) and 24 V DC coils. Each valve operates in a 5/2 configuration, enabling independent or synchronized control of pneumatic actuators in automation lines. The stack is intended for panel or subplate mounting and provides uniform electrical and pneumatic connections across channels, reducing wiring complexity and facilitating expansion by adding additional stacks as needed. Typical applications include multi‑valve actuation in automated manufacturing, packaging equipment, picking and placing systems, and other pneumatics‑driven processes where space is constrained and reliable valve automation is essential. The VSS8‑6‑FG‑D‑3EZ‑V1‑Q integrates with standard SMC controller ecosystems and supports straightforward service and replacement within existing VSS/VSR installations.
