SJ
The SJ series was developed by SMC to offer a small, low profile, low maintenance, 4-port solenoid valve and manifold.  The series was designed in a cassette type format, uses a card-edge type connector, and is available in two compact sizes.  The SJ2000 measures 7.5mm wide, while the large SJ3000 model is only 10mm wide.  The SJ2000/3000 can be combined in the same manifold, which can provide up to 24 stations and 32 solenoids.  The valves feature a special lock switch mechanism assuring they are securely locked together, and are compatible with Serial Interface units for both CC-Link and DeviceNet protocols.
SV
The SV series employs a multi-connector instead of the conventional lead wires for internal manifold wiring. By connecting each block with a connector, changes to manifold stations are greatly simplified. Cassette base type manifolds offer the ultimate in flexibility. Manifold sections can be added using a simple release mechanism. Conventional tie-rod base type manifolds are also available. The use of 34 pin connectors allows up to 16 stations with double solenoids.
VQC
The VQC series has five standard wiring packages bringing a world of ease to wiring and maintenance work, while the protective enclosures of three of them conform to IP67 standards for protection from dust and moisture. The use of multi-pin connectors to replace wiring inside manifold blocks provides flexibility when adding stations or changing manifold configuration. The VQC series has outstanding response times and long life.
SY
Series SY offers major advances in valve performance for cost-effective solutions to your requirements. The series offers high flow with low power consumption in a compact design. The SY is available in body ported or base mounted styles and can be used individually or manifold mounted.
SY - NEW
SMC has improved product performance and reliability with the redesigned SY series valve.  The SY3000 and SY5000 have the same valve width as their predecessors, but the flow has been increased by up to 80%, allowing the valve size to be reduced. A built-in strainer in the pilot valve prevents trouble caused by foreign matter. By using H-NBR seal material for the main valve and seals, Ozone resistance has been improved.   Side, top and bottom port/pipe directions are available to allow flexible installation.  The SY is available in body ported or base mounted styles, and can be used individually or manifold mounted.
VQ
VQ valves are ideal for applications requiring high speed, frequent operation, stable response time and long service life. Innovative mounting methods allow valves to be changed without entirely disassembling the manifold. Built-in one-touch fittings save piping time and labor.
SYJ
The SYJ Valve is an innovative combination of space efficiency and performance superiority which provides real value to the design solution. Whether designed in a manifold or used as a single valve, this small profile increases design flexibility and minimizes space requirements. The SYJ valve utilizes a low power (0.5 watts standard) pilot solenoid design, which dramatically reduces thermal heat generation. This improves performance, decreases operating costs, and allows for direct control by PLC output relays. All electrical connections for SYJ Valves are available with lights and surge suppression. SYJ series valves can be configured on base mounted manifolds, or individually on subplates, creating a variety of solutions to meet your broadest engineering needs.

VFS
Series VFS consists of 5 port pilot solenoid valves with metal seals and base mounted or body ported type manifolds. Base mounted manifolds are available in plug-in and non plug-in styles. Body ported manifolds are available with bar or separate type manifold bases. Port sizes range from 1/8 to 3/4 with Rc(PT), NPTF & G(PF) thread types available. Various options also available.
VK
The VK3000 series is a 5 port solenoid, direct poppet, rubber seal valve. It meets copper free specifications as all parts in contact with fluids are made of non-copper materials. A compact valve (width 18 x length 68mm), the VK3000 is available in a body ported or base mounted style.
VQD
VQD1000 series 4 port, direct operated, poppet solenoid valve offers large flow capacity in a compact, lightweight body. Vacuum applications (up to -100kPa) are possible. Components of the VQD1000 valves that are in contact with fluid are all copper free. The VQD series offers a remarkably quick and stable response time.
VQ7-6/7-8
SMC's VQ7-6/7-8 series valve conforms to ISO standard 5591/I.  A choice of metal or rubber seal increases compatibility with various operating and environmental conditions.  Manifolds are available with a wide range of interface options to meet a variety of application requirements.  The VQ7-6/7-8 has a smaller, space-saving profile and is lighter in weight than the VS7/VP7 series. 
VSS/VSR
VSS/VSR  size 1, 2 & 3 are plug-in, base mounted interface valves conforming to ISO standards. The valve design offers maximum flexibility and is available in either a high flow rubber seal (model VSR), or matched ground spool and sleeve (model VSS). The lateral plug-in style manifold makes it easy to increase or decrease the manifold stations without wiring work.  In addition, SMC now offers a light weight, large capacity mini ISO valve (size 01).
SQ
The 5 port solenoid valves series SQ was designed for applications which demand high speed, high frequency, long life and a precise response time. The SQ series has an outstanding response time of 12ms or less for SQ1000, 20ms or less for SQ2000 and a life of 200 million cycles. A wide variety of options are available.
SX
The SX series unique design combines both solenoid assemblies (when using double solenoid 2/3 position) on the same side of the valve, opposite the ports, allowing for greater space savings and simplified wiring access. The SX series valves are available with numerous manifold options which allow for easier installation and improved operation.
SZ
Series SZ3000 is a 5 port solenoid valve, body ported type with a cassette style manifold. The SZ series offers high reliability and long life of 50 million cycles or more.
