The VEF/VEP Series from SMC represents advanced electro-pneumatic proportional valve systems, designed for precise control over flow and pressure in various industrial applications. These valves utilize a sophisticated internal spool assembly to adjust flow or pressure dynamically, providing infinite control possibilities to meet specific application demands.
Product Variants
VEP (Pressure Type): This variant focuses on controlling secondary pressure by modulating the current through its solenoid. It's ideal for applications where maintaining precise pressure levels is crucial, such as in pneumatic systems that demand stability across varying operational conditions.
VEF (Flow Rate Type): Tailored for flow rate control, the VEF regulates air flow by adjusting the solenoid's current. This is particularly beneficial in systems where consistent air flow is essential, such as in process automation and HVAC systems.
Product Highlights
- Infinite Spool Control: The VEF/VEP Series provides meticulous control of the spool assembly, allowing for fine adjustments in both flow and pressure.
- Solenoid-Based Modulation: Uses solenoid current variation for precise adjustment, ensuring responsive and adaptable system performance.
- Versatile Applications: Suitable for multiple industrial settings, including automation, machining, and material handling, where dynamic flow and pressure control are required.
