022a/engThis manual should be read in conjunction with the current valve catalogueSafety InstructionsThese safety instructions are intended to prevent a hazardous situationand/or equipment damage. These instructions indicate the levelof potential hazard by label of “Caution”, “Warning” or “Danger”.To ensure safety, be sure to observe ISO4414 (Note1) , JIS B 8370 (Note2)and other safety practices.Note 1: ISO 4414: Pneumatic fluid power – Recommendations for theapplication of equipment to transmission and control systems.Note 2: JIS B 8370: Pneumatic system axiom.CAUTION : Operator error could result in injury orequipment damage.WARNING: Operator error could result in seriousinjury or loss of life.DANGER : In extreme conditions, there is apossible result of serious injury or loss of life.WARNING1. The compatibility of pneumatic equipment is the responsibilityof the person who designs the pneumatic systemor decides its specifications.Since the products specified here are used in various operatingconditions, their compatibility for the specific pneumatic systemmust be based on specifications or after analysis and/or tests tomeet your specific requirements.Standard specifications (Fig 1)Installation and Maintenance ManualSeries VT307/317/325 Body Ported Solenoid ValveFor future reference, please keep this manual in a safe place2. Only trained personnel should operate pneumaticallyoperated machinery and equipment.Compressed air can be dangerous if an operator is unfamiliarwith it. Assembly, handling or repair of pneumatic systems shouldbe performed by trained and experienced operators.3. Do not service machinery/equipment or attempt toremove component until safety is confirmed.1) Inspection and maintenance of machinery/equipment shouldonly be performed after confirmation of safe locked-outcontrol positions.2) When equipment is to be removed, confirm the safety processas mentioned above. Switch off air and electrical supplies andexhaust all residual compressed air in the system.3) Before machinery/equipment is re-started, ensure all safetymeasures to prevent sudden movement of cylinders etc.(Bleed air into the system gradually to create back-pressure,i.e. incorporate a soft-start valve).4. Contact SMC if the product is to be used in any of thefollowing conditions:1) Conditions and environments beyond the given specifications,or if product is used outdoors.2) Installations in conjunction with atomic energy, railway, airnavigation, vehicles, medical equipment, food and beverage,recreation equipment, emergency stop circuits, pressapplications, or safety equipment.3) An application which has the possibility of having negativeeffects on people, property, or animals, requiring specialsafety analysis.CAUTIONEnsure that the air supply system is filtered to 5 micron.FluidsAirOperating pressure range*No freezing 0~0.9 MPaAmbient and fluid temperature0~50°CResponse timeNote 1)Max. 20ms (at 0.5 MPa)Max. operating frequency10HzLubricationNot requiredManual overrideNon-locking type, Push-turn-locking typeMounting positionFreeImpact/vibration resistanceNote 2)150/50 m/s 2 )EnclosureIP65*V, W type: -101.2kPa~0.1Solenoid specificationsElectrical entryDIN terminalVoltagesAC ( 50 / 60 Hz) 100, 200, 24, 48, 110, 220, 240DC 24, 6, 12, 48Voltage allowance-15%~+10% of rated voltageInsulationClass BApparent powerACInrush*12.7VA (50Hz) 10.7VA (60Hz)Holding*7.6VA (50Hz) 5.4VA (60Hz)Power consumption DC **4.8WLamp/surge AC ZNR (varister) neon lampProtection circuit DC Diode, LED* E type: Inrush: 7.9 (50), 6.2 (60), Holding: 5.8 (50), 3.5 (60)** E, Y, W type: 2, with lamp 2.2Standard specifications (Fig 2)FluidAir, inert gasOperating pressure range* No freezing 0~0.9 MPaAmbient and fluid temperature0~50°CResponse timeNote 1)Max. 30ms (at 0.5MPa)Max. operating frequency10HzLubricationNot requiredManual overrideNon-locking typeMounting positionFreeImpact/vibration resistanceNote 2)150/50 m/s 2 )EnclosureIP65*V, W type: -101.2kPa~0.1Solenoid specificationsElectrical entryDIN terminalVoltagesA/C ( 50 / 60 Hz) 100, 200, 24, 48, 110, 220, 240DC 24, 6, 12, 48Voltage allowance-15%~+10% of rated voltageInsulationClass BApparent powerACInrush19VA (50Hz) 16VA (60Hz)Holding11VA (50Hz) 7VA (60Hz)Power consumption DC 6W with lampLamp/surge voltage AC ZNR (varister) neon lampprotection circuit DC ZNR (varister), LEDSpecification (cont)* Note 1) : According to dynamic performance test JIS B8375-1981 (Coil temperature 20°C, at rated voltage, without surge voltage suppressor.)* * Note 2) : Shock resistance: No malfunction from test using drop impact tester, to axis and right angle direction of main valve and armature,each one time when energised and de-energised.Vibration resistance: No malfunction from test with 8.3 to 2000Hz 1 sweep, to axis and right angle direction of main valve andarmature, each one time when energised and de-energised.

If a lubricant is used, continuous lubrication must becarried out as the original lubricant will be washed away.WARNINGManual override operationExercise extreme CAUTION when operating a solenoid manual overrideas connected equipment will commence operation. Ensure allsafety measures are in place.Non-Locking push type (all valves)1. Push down on the manual override button (moulded black rubber)until it stops.2. Hold this position for the duration of the check. (ON position).3. Release the button and the override will re-set to the OFFposition.Push-Locking slotted type (VT325)To lock1. Insert a small bladed screwdriver into the slot and push downuntil it stops.2. Turn the override 90° left or right depending upon which optionis required (normally open or normally closed) until it stops.3. Remove the screwdriver.WARNINGIn this position the manual override is in the locked 'ON' position.To unlock1. Insert a small bladed screwdriver into the slot of the manual override.2. Turn the screwdriver 90° in the reverse direction.3. Remove the screwdriver and the manual override will re-set to theOFF position.CAUTIONThe design of the VT series (V type) valves are such that they may beused for vacuum applications.However, VT307 (V) and VT317 (V) VT325 (V) must not be used as avacuum holding valve.If any valve is used in a dusty environment a filter should be insertedin the exhaust port and if a suction pad is used the filter should beinstalled between the pad and the valve.CAUTIONLeakage voltage (Fig 6)Please note, if a C-R element is used for contact protection, pleaseallow for an increase of leakage voltage which may pass through theC-R element.Contact points*Fig 6C-R elementValveLeakage voltageLeakage currentPowersupply* Please take note that non-contact relays sometimes have built-incurrent protection.The percentage of leakage voltage that remains on the coil after deenergizationshould be kept under 15% (VT307) or 20% (VT317) or15% (VT325) in the case of an AC coil, and under 3% (VT307) or 2%(VT 317) or 2% (VT325) in the case of a DC coil, of the rated voltage.Surge voltage suppressionLamp/Surge voltage protection circuitAC48VDC or lessFig 7ACDCFig 8ACDCFig 9Terminal No. 1 (+)Fittings tightening torqueTerminal No. 2 (-)Terminal No. 1 (+)In case ofassemblyTerminal No. 2 (-)ZNR With surge voltage protection circuitZNRLEDIn case of assemblyIn case of lamp assemblyLEDZNRThread Tightening torque N-m (kgf/cm)1/8 7-9 (70-90)1/4 12-14 (120-140)3/8 22-24 (220-240)Using DIN connector with the series VT307 (Fig 10)Disassembly1) Loosen screw and pull housing directly upward to removeconnector from the device (such as solenoid).2) Remove screw from housing and retain.3) Notch indicated by an arrow is at the bottom of terminal block.
