Frequently asked questions
Common questions about SMC Valves from 3G Electric.
How do I choose between SMC SY and VQC series directional control valves?
SY series valves are compact, high-flow directional control valves ideal for general automation and manifold mounting. VQC series offer higher flow rates and are suited for larger actuators or faster cycle times. Consider your required Cv, port size, and voltage when selecting.
Are SMC speed control valves compatible with other brands' cylinders?
Yes, SMC speed control valves use standard port threads (e.g., Rc, NPT, G) and are compatible with most pneumatic cylinders and fittings. Match the valve's port size and thread type to your cylinder's ports, and verify the operating pressure range.
