SMC Corporation VQ4300-3 Pneumatic Solenoid Valve

The SMC VQ4300-3 is a 5-port pneumatic solenoid valve in SMC's VQ4000 family, designed to control compressed-air flow in automation and process equipment. It operates over a supply pressure range from 0.15 MPa to 1 MPa, enabling reliable actuation of cylinders and other pneumatic actuators across medium‑pressure systems found in manufacturing lines and automated tooling. The valve is solenoid‑driven, meaning an electric coil shifts the internal spool to route air between ports, delivering fast response and repeatable operation in compact control panels. Its 5-port configuration aligns with the VQ4000 line's standard footprint, supporting straightforward integration into valve banks and modular manifolds used in industrial automation. As part of the VQ4000 family, the VQ4300-3 shares common mounting interfaces and electrical connection practices with other members of the line, simplifying maintenance, replacement, and system expansion for facilities already using SMC components.
