3 Installation
3.1 Installation Warning
•Do not install the product unless the safety instructions have been read
and understood.
3.2 Environment Warning
•Do not use in an environment where corrosive gases, chemicals, salt
water or steam are present.
•Do not use in an explosive atmosphere.
•Do not expose to direct sunlight. Use a suitable protective cover.
•Do not install in a location subject to vibration or impact in excess of
the product’s specifications.
•Do not mount in a location exposed to radiant heat that would result in
temperatures in excess of the product’s specifications.
3.3 Piping Caution
•Before connecting piping make sure to clean up chips, cutting oil, dust
etc.
•When installing piping or fittings, ensure sealant material does not
enter inside the port. When using seal tape, leave 1 thread exposed
on the end of the pipe/fitting.
•Tighten fittings to the specified tightening torque.

3.4 Lubrication Caution
•SMC products have been lubricated for life at manufacture, and do not
require lubrication in service.
•If a lubricant is used in the system, refer to catalogue for details.
3.5 Air supply Warning
•Use clean air. If the compressed air supply includes chemicals,
synthetic materials (including organic solvents), salinity, corrosive gas
etc., it can lead to damage or malfunction.
Caution
•Install an air filter upstream of the valve. Select an air filter with a
filtration size of 5 μm or smaller.
3.6 Manual override Warning
•Regardless of an electric signal for the valve, the manual override is
used for switching the main valve. Since connected equipment will
operate when the manual override is activated, confirm that conditions
are safe prior to activation.
•Locked manual overrides might prevent the valve responding to being
electrically de-energised or cause unexpected movement in the
equipment.
•Refer to the catalogue for details of manual override operation.
3.7 Mounting Caution
•Ensure gaskets are in good condition, not deformed and are dust and
debris free.
•When mounting valves ensure gaskets are present, aligned and
securely in place and tighten the mounting screws to a torque of 0.18
to 0.25 N∙m.
•When piping and mounting valves, clamp the body part in place to
avoid applying force to the coil. If you apply force over 120 N to coil,
connection pins deform, which may cause malfunction. (Latching: 50
N or more).

3.10 Residual voltage Caution
•If a varistor voltage suppressor is used, the suppressor arrests the
back EMF voltage from the coil to a level in proportion to the rated
voltage.
•Ensure the transient voltage is within the specification of the host
controller.
•Contact SMC for the varistor residual voltage.
•In the case of a diode, the residual voltage is approximately 1 V.
•Valve response time is dependent on surge suppression method
selected.

3.4 Lubrication Caution
•SMC products have been lubricated for life at manufacture, and do not
require lubrication in service.
•If a lubricant is used in the system, refer to catalogue for details.
3.5 Air supply Warning
•Use clean air. If the compressed air supply includes chemicals,
synthetic materials (including organic solvents), salinity, corrosive gas
etc., it can lead to damage or malfunction.
Caution
•Install an air filter upstream of the valve. Select an air filter with a
filtration size of 5 μm or smaller.
3.6 Manual override Warning
•Regardless of an electric signal for the valve, the manual override is
used for switching the main valve. Since connected equipment will
operate when the manual override is activated, confirm that conditions
are safe prior to activation.
•Locked manual overrides might prevent the valve responding to being
electrically de-energised or cause unexpected movement in the
equipment.
•Refer to the catalogue for details of manual override operation.
3.7 Mounting Caution
•Ensure gaskets are in good condition, not deformed and are dust and
debris free.
•When mounting valves ensure gaskets are present, aligned and
securely in place and tighten the mounting screws to a torque of 0.18
to 0.25 N∙m.
•When piping and mounting valves, clamp the body part in place to
avoid applying force to the coil. If you apply force over 120 N to coil,
connection pins deform, which may cause malfunction. (Latching: 50
N or more).

3.10 Residual voltage Caution
•If a varistor voltage suppressor is used, the suppressor arrests the
back EMF voltage from the coil to a level in proportion to the rated
voltage.
•Ensure the transient voltage is within the specification of the host
controller.
•Contact SMC for the varistor residual voltage.
•In the case of a diode, the residual voltage is approximately 1 V.
•Valve response time is dependent on surge suppression method
selected.

3.11 Countermeasure for surge voltage
Caution
•At times of sudden interruption of the power supply, the energy stored
in a large inductive device may cause non-polar type valves in a de-
energised state to switch.
•When installing a breaker circuit to isolate the power, consider a valve
with polarity (with polarity protection diode), or install a surge
absorption diode across the output of the breaker.
3.12 Extended period of continuous energization
Warning
•If a valve will be continuously energized for an extended period of time,
or is mounted in a control panel, the temperature of the valve will
increase due to the heat generated by the coil assembly. This will likely
adversely affect the performance of the valve and any nearby
peripheral equipment. Therefore, if the valve is to be energized for
periods of longer than 30 minutes at a time or if during the hours of
operation the energized period perday is longer than the de-energized
period, we advise using a direct operated continuous duty type valve
such as the VK series or the VT series, or consider use of the latching
type for which continuous energization is not required.
•Coil temperature may get high due to ambient temperature or
energizing duration. Do not touch the valve by hand directly. When
there is such a dangerous case to be touched by hands directly, install
a protective cover.
•The latching type should not be energized over 30 seconds. Ensure
the de-energised period is longer than the energised time (both A and
B should be turned off.) before the next operation.
3.13 Effect of back pressure when using a manifold
Warning
Use caution when valves are used on a manifold, because an actuator
may malfunction due to back-pressure.
3.14 Latching type Caution
•Use in a circuit that does not have simultaneous energization of A-ON
and B-ON signals.
•The minimum energization time required for self-holding is 50 ms.
•Although there is no problem for normal operations and environments.
please consult SMC when operating in an environment with vibration
(10G or more) or strong magnetic fields.
•When there is the magnetic body at the valve side, it may cause
malfunction. Allow a space over 10 mm between the valve and
magnetic body.
•Even though this valve is held on to B-ON position (passage: P →B),
it may switch to the set position during transportation or due to impact
when mounting valves, etc. Therefore, check the initial position by
means of power supply or manual override prior to use.
