Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides comprehensive technical specifications and operational guidelines for the VF1000, VF3000, and VF5000 series of pilot-operated 5-port solenoid valves. These valves are designed for various industrial applications, offering different configurations and pressure specifications, and are RoHS compliant.
Key Features:
  • Noise Reduction: Utilizes a full-wave rectifier to convert AC to DC, significantly reducing noise.
  • Power Efficiency: Apparent power is reduced from 5.6 VA to 1.55 VA, with a power-saving circuit decreasing power consumption by approximately one-third.
  • Built-in Strainer: A strainer in the pilot valve prevents issues from foreign matter, with a recommendation to mount an air filter on the inlet side.
  • Material Specifications: Uses HNBR rubber and ozone-resistant FKM for the pilot valve poppet.
Electrical Specifications:
  • Voltage Options: Available in multiple voltages including 12 VDC, 24 VDC, 24 VAC, 100 VAC, 200 VAC, 110 VAC, 220 VAC, and 240 VAC.
  • Power Consumption: Standard power consumption is 1.55 W, reduced to 0.55 W with the power-saving circuit.
  • Surge Voltage Suppressor: Options include with or without light/surge voltage suppressor, available in both polar and non-polar types.
Mechanical Specifications:
  • Port Sizes: Available in M5 x 0.8, 1/8, 1/4, 3/8, and 1/2.
  • Actuation Types: Includes 2-position single, 2-position double, 3-position closed center, exhaust center, and pressure center.
  • Manual Override: Options include non-locking push type, push-turn locking slotted type, and push-turn locking lever type.
Model Selection: Guidelines are provided for selecting models based on operating conditions, including single unit and manifold configurations, with details on electrical entry types and manual override options.
Performance Charts: Cylinder speed charts are provided for different series and configurations, indicating average speeds under specified conditions.
Ordering Information: Detailed instructions on how to order valves, specifying series, pressure specifications, coil specifications, thread types, and other options.
Additional Notes: Includes cautionary notes on voltage fluctuations, impact and vibration resistance, and IP65 compatibility for certain configurations.
Specifications:
  • Pressure Range: Standard models operate between 0.15 to 0.7 MPa, while high-pressure models range from 0.1 to 1.0 MPa.
  • Temperature: Suitable for ambient and fluid temperatures from -10°C to 50°C, ensuring no freezing occurs.
  • Response Time: Varies by model and configuration, with times ranging from 12 ms to 78 ms depending on the presence of light/surge voltage suppressors.
  • Enclosure: Dustproof (IP65) for certain models, ensuring protection against environmental factors.
Operational Features:
  • Actuation Types: Available in 2-position single, 2-position double, and 3-position configurations.
  • Manual Override: Options include non-locking push type, push-turn locking slotted type, and push-turn locking lever type.
  • Electrical Entry: Various options including grommet, plug connectors, and DIN terminals, with specific configurations for DC and AC modes.
Flow-rate Characteristics:
  • Flow rates are calculated according to ISO6358 standards, with specific values provided for different port sizes and configurations.
  • Weight and flow characteristics are detailed for each valve model, indicating suitability for specific industrial applications.
Construction and Materials:
  • Components include aluminum die-casted bodies, resin adapter plates, and stainless steel springs, ensuring durability and reliability.
  • Replacement parts and assembly instructions are provided for maintenance and customization.
Recommendations:
  • Ensure selection of the appropriate power-saving circuit type for continuous energization to prevent voltage fluctuations.
  • Refer to specific pages for detailed ordering information and custom configurations.
Specifications and Dimensions: The document outlines the dimensions for the L-type plug connector and Series VF5000, specifying that unless otherwise indicated, dimensions are consistent with Grommet (G). It provides a detailed table of dimensions for different station numbers, highlighting the length variations.
Safety Instructions: Emphasizes the importance of preventing hazardous situations and equipment damage, categorizing potential hazards into 'Caution,' 'Warning,' and 'Danger.' It stresses the responsibility of the equipment designer to ensure product compatibility and the necessity for trained personnel to operate machinery.
Limited Warranty and Disclaimer: The warranty period is specified as 1 year in service or 1.5 years after delivery, with certain exclusions like vacuum pads. The warranty covers only the product itself and not any consequential damages.
Compliance Requirements: When exporting the product, compliance with laws from the Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry is mandatory.
Connector Handling Instructions: Provides detailed instructions on attaching and detaching connectors, crimping lead wires, and using manual overrides, specifying correct procedures to avoid damage and ensure safety.

5 Port Solenoid Valve duced Re Built-in full-wave rectifier (AC) Noise Power consumption is reduced by power saving circuit. Power consumption is decreased by approx. 1/3 by reducing the wattage required to hold the valve in an energized state. (Effective energizing time is over 40 ms at 24 VDC.) Refer to electrical power waveform as shown below. Noise is considerably reduced by changing it to DC mode with a full-wave rectifier. apparent power Conventional: 5.6 VA → 1.55 VA Built-in strainer in the pilot valve Unexpected troubles due to foreign matter can be prevented. Note) Be sure to mount an air filter on the inlet side.
