SMC VX230KA Solenoid Valve

SMC VX230KA is a direct-operated, 2-port pneumatic solenoid valve with a Ø10 mm port size and a 24 VDC coil, configured as normally closed so the flow path remains sealed at rest and opens when the coil is energized. Designed for compact installations in automation and compressed-air systems, it provides reliable, fast actuation without the need for external pilot pressure, making it suitable for tight spaces and straightforward control from standard automation electronics. Part of the VX2 family, the VX230KA is intended for air service and pairs with common piping and fittings used in industrial machinery, cylinders, and process lines where precise 2-way control is required. Typical applications include actuation of pneumatic cylinders and general air-flow control in automation equipment, packaging lines, and manufacturing automation, where a robust 24 VDC coil and durable construction support repeated cycling in demanding environments.
