SMC VM1000 Series Mechanical Valve, 0.8Mpa Maximum Operating Pressure, 49.03NL/min Maximum Flow Rate - VM1000-4NU-00
This mechanical valve is a compact, manually operated 3/2 pneumatic component designed for low-pressure control in air systems. Intended for installations where space is limited, it provides three-port switching with female side porting and basic control options. The body is formed from polybutylene terephthalate for stability across typical shop temperatures and it accommodates selectable push-button colours for local actuation.
Features and Benefits:
• 3-port design delivers straightforward directional control for actuators
• Maximum flow 49.03NL/min supports modest pneumatic demands
• Rated operating pressure up to 0.8MPa for low-pressure systems
• Operating temperature range -5°C to +60°C enables indoor use
• Thread size 2.5mm allows connection to small-bore tubing
• Multiple button colours provide clear local status indication
• Maximum flow 49.03NL/min supports modest pneumatic demands
• Rated operating pressure up to 0.8MPa for low-pressure systems
• Operating temperature range -5°C to +60°C enables indoor use
• Thread size 2.5mm allows connection to small-bore tubing
• Multiple button colours provide clear local status indication
Applications
• Suitable for compact valve islands or subassemblies in OEM equipment
• Ideal for pilot control of cylinders in low-pressure tooling
• Used with miniature pneumatic indicators for visual status feedback
• Can be used for cycle-counted pneumatic actuations in test rigs
• Suitable for side-port installations in confined panels
• Ideal for pilot control of cylinders in low-pressure tooling

What material is used for the valve body and why is it chosen?
The body is made from polybutylene terephthalate which offers dimensional stability and suitable mechanical properties for pneumatic service at typical ambient temperatures.
Which actuator styles are compatible with this valves manual control?
It accepts basic manual actuators and push-button styles in red, green, black or yellow for direct mechanical operation.
How small is the valve footprint for tight installations?
The design presents a small footprint with an 11mm width and overall compact form suited to tight mounting spaces.
Is lubrication required for reliable operation?
Lubrication is not required for standard use
turbine oil No. 1 (ISO VG32) may be used if desired.
