SMC ZK2-ZSVBM-A Pressure Switch

SMC ZK2-ZSVBM-A Pressure Switch is the digital vacuum-pressure sensor integrated with SMC’s ZK2 vacuum-ejector system, designed for vacuum assembly work within ZM vacuum system configurations. It functions as a compact, inline pressure switch that monitors the vacuum level and provides electrical signals to downstream controllers or valve pilots, enabling automated control of gripping and lifting operations. The ZSV designation identifies a digital pressure switch variant that can be used with SMC’s energy-saving features commonly associated with the ZK2 family, supporting efficient intermittent energizing of vacuum components and helping reduce air consumption in automated cycles. Built to fit the ZK2 A-series vacuum units, the BM variant maintains the same compact form factor as other ZK2 pressure switch options while offering the digital sensing and output options required by modern PLCs and automation controllers. Typical applications include automated pick-and-place, robotic gripping, packaging, and assembly lines where stable vacuum levels are critical to part handling. When selecting this part, verify compatibility with your ZK2 vacuum unit and ZM vacuum-system configuration, and reference the official SMC operation manuals for electrical connection details and switching characteristics.
