Overview
The SMC VX220HG is a direct operated 2-port solenoid valve from the VX2 series, designed for precise fluid and gas control in industrial automation systems. Suitable for use with air, water, oil and medium vacuum environments, this normally closed (NC) valve delivers reliable performance in demanding applications. The valve features a compact resin and aluminum body construction, making it ideal for space-constrained installations.
Key Features
- Direct Operation: Solenoid-actuated 2-port design for responsive fluid/gas control
- Compact & Lightweight: 10% smaller and 30% lighter compared to the older VX21 model
- Enhanced Flow Performance: 20% larger flow rate than the older VX21 valve
- Low Power Consumption: Reduced apparent power with rubber bumper to reduce valve noise during operation
- Quick Installation: One touch fitting for speed of installation
- Durable Construction: Resin and aluminum body with improved sealing for extended service life
