SMC VP17 Series 3-port pressure relief valves

The SMC VP17 series of 3-port pressure relief valves allows for easy connection to filter regulator lubricator (FRL) units, where electrically operated valves are required. The modular valve series is suitable for pneumatic applications with air preparation equipment, where it’s necessary to exhaust air to carry out maintenance. The valve series is efficient with only 0.35 W required to operate the DC type, and space savings can be achieved without the need for piping adaptors.

The IP65-rated enclosure is dust tight and water-jet proof to withstand a range of environments and applications. Due to its modular design, the series can be easily connected to an FRL unit and it is also possible to select a flow direction of left to right or right to left.

The VP17 series completes SMC’s range of 3-port valves that can be connected to FRL units. Alongside the electronically operated valves, the range also includes manually operated valves (VHS), soft start-up function (AV) and safety standard compliant valves (VG/VP).
