SMC Corporation VQZ2255M01 Pneumatic Solenoid Valve

SMC VQZ2255M01 is a 3-port base-mounted solenoid valve from the VQZ family, designed to switch compressed air in compact automation circuits. As a 2-position valve, it routes supply air from input P to output A while venting the opposite port to exhaust R, enabling straightforward on/off control of pneumatic actuators. The base-mounted construction supports easy installation on small manifolds or directly on panels, helping to minimize footprint and simplify plumbing and wiring in tight equipment enclosures. Part of SMC’s broad line of electro-pneumatic control equipment, the VQZ series is built for reliable duty in standard industrial air systems and is compatible with common pneumatic components used in automation lines. Typical applications include actuating small cylinders and grippers in pick-and-place cells, clamping operations, and other compact automation tasks where fast response and space efficiency matter. The VQZ family pairs durable body design with sealed configurations suitable for industrial environments; exact seal materials and electrical connection options vary by variant, with VQZ2255M01 representing one base-mounted 3-port configuration in this line.
