Precautions for 5 Port Solenoid Valve 1

Be sure to read before handling.

Design / Selection

Warning

1. Confirm the specifications

Products represented in this instruction manual are designed only for use in compressed air systems

( including vacuum).

Do not operate at pressures or temperatures, etc., beyond the range of specifications, as this can cause damage or malfunction. (Refer to the specifications.) Please contact SMC when using a fluid other than compressed air (including vacuum). We do not guarantee against any damage if the product is used outside of the specification range.

2. Actuator drive

When an actuator, such as a cylinder, is to be driven using a valve, take appropriate measures (cover installation or approach prohibition) to prevent potential danger caused by actuator operation.

3. Intermediate stops

For 3-position closed center or double check valve type, it is difficult to make a piston stop at the required position accurately due to the compressibility of air.

Furthermore, since valves and cylinders are not guaranteed for zero air leakage, it may not be possible to hold a stopped position for an extended period of time. Please contact SMC if it is necessary to hold a stopped position for an extended period of time.

4. Effect of back pressure when using a manifold.

Use caution when valves are used on a manifold, because an actuator may malfunction due to back-pressure. For 3-position exhaust center valve or single acting cylinder, take appropriate measures to prevent malfunction by using it with an individual

EXH spacer assembly or a back pressure check valve.

5. Holding pressure (including vacuum).

Since the valve are subject to air leakage, they cannot be used for applications such as holding pressure (including vacuum) in a pressure vessel.

6. Not suitable for use as an emergency shut-off valve, etc.

The valves listed in this instruction manual are not designed for safety applications such as an emergency shutoff valve. If the valves are used for the mentioned applications, additional safety measures should be adopted.

7. Release of residual pressure

For maintenance purposes install a system for releasing residual pressure. Especially in the case of 3-position closed center valve or double check valve type, ensure that the residual pressure between the valve and the cylinder is released.

8.

Operation in a vacuum condition

When a valve is used for switching a vacuum, take measures to install a suction filter or similar to prevent external dust or other foreign matter from entering inside the valve.

In addition, at the time of vacuum adsorption, be sure to supply a constant supply of vacuum. Failure to do so may result in foreign matter sticking to the adsorption pad or air leakage, causing the workpiece to drop.

9.

Regarding a vacuum switch valve

For maintenance purposes install a system for releasing residual pressure.

10.

Double solenoid type

When using the double solenoid type for the first time, actuators may travel in an unexpected direction depending on the switching position of the valve. Implement measures to prevent any danger from occurring when operating the actuator.

11.

Ventilation

Provide ventilation when using a valve in a confined area, such as in a closed control panel. For example, install a ventilation opening, etc. in order to prevent pressure from increasing inside of the confined area and to release the heat generated by the valve.

12.

Extended periods of continuous energization.

 If a valve will be continuously energized for an extended period of time, the temperature of the valve will increase due to the heat generated by the coil. This will likely adversely affect the performance of the solenoid valve and any nearby peripheral equipment. Therefore, when it is continuously energized or the energized period per day is longer than the de-energized period use either: DC specification, power-saving type. Also, please contact SMC because depending on the application, there may be additional valves not mentioned above that may be used. In addition, it is possible to shorten the energized time by making a valve with an

N.O. (normally open) specification.

 For applications such as mounting a valve on a control panel, incorporate measure to limit the heat radiation so that it is within the operation temperature range.

13.

Do not disassemble the product of make any modifications, including additional machining.

It may cause human injury and/or an accident.

Precautions for 5 Port Solenoid Valve 2

Design / Selection

Caution

1. Momentary energization

If a double solenoid valve is operated with momentary energization, it should be energized for at least 0.1 second. However, depending on the piping conditions, cylinder may malfunction even when the double solenoid valve is energized for 0.1 second or longer. In this case, energize the double solenoid valve until the cylinder is exhausted completely.

2. Leakage voltage

Take note that the leakage voltage will increase when a resistor is used in parallel with switching element or a C-R circuit (surge voltage suppressor) is used for protecting a switching device because of the passing leakage voltage through the C-R circuit. The suppressor residual leakage voltage should be 3% or less of the rated voltage.

3. Surge voltage suppressor

1) A surge voltage suppressor built into the valve is intended to protect the output contacts so that the surge generated inside valve does not adversely affect the output contacts.

Therefore, if an overvoltage or overcurrent is received from an external peripheral device, the surge voltage protection element inside the valve is overloaded, causing the element to break. In the worst case, the electric circuit enters the short-circuit status by the breakage.

If the energizing continues in this status, a large current flows. This may cause secondary damage to the output circuit, external peripheral device, or valve, and may also cause fire accident. So, take appropriate protective measures, such as installation of an overcurrent protection circuit in the power supply or drive circuit to maintain the sufficient safety.

2) If a surge protection circuit contains nonstandard diodes, such as Zener diodes or varistor, a residual voltage that is in proportion to the protective circuit and the rated voltage will remain. Therefore, take into consideration the surge voltage protection of the controller.In the case of diodes, the residual voltage is approximately 1 V.

Be sure to read before handling.

4. Operation in a low temperature condition

It is possible to operate a valve in extreme temperature, as low as -10 o

C. Take appropriate measures to avoid freezing of drainage, moisture etc. in low temperature.

5. Operation for air blowing

When using a solenoid valve for air blowing, use an external pilot type. Use caution because the pressure drop caused by the air blowing can have an affect on the internal pilot type valve when the internal pilot type valves and external pilot type valves are used on the same manifold. Additionally, when compressed air within the pressure range of the established specifications is supplied to the external pilot type valve’s port, and a double solenoid valve is used for air blowing, the solenoids should normally be energized when air is being blown.

6. Mounting orientation

Rubber seal: Mounting orientation is free.

Metal seal: Mounting orientation of a single solenoid is universal.

When installing a double solenoid or a 3-position configuration, mount the valve so that spool valve is horizontal.

Mounting

Warning

1. Operation manual

Install the products and operate them only after reading the operation manual carefully and understanding its contents. Also, keep the manual where it can be referred to as necessary.

2. Ensure sufficient space for maintenance activities.

When installing the products, allow access for maintenance.

3. Tighten threads with the proper tightening torque.

When installing the products, follow the listed torque specifications.

4. If air leakage increases or equipment does not operated properly, stop operation.

Check mounting conditions when air and power supplies are connected. Initial function and leakage tests should be performed after installation.

5. Painting and coating

Warnings or specifications printed or affixed to the product should not be erased, removed or covered up. Please consult with SMC before applying paint to resinous parts, as this may have an adverse effect due to the solvent in the paint.

Piping

Caution

1. Refer to the Fittings and Tubing precautions for handling one-touch fittings.

2. Preparation before piping

Before piping is connected, it should be thoroughly blown out with air (flushing) or washed to remove chips, cutting oil and other debris from inside the pipe.

3. Wrapping of pipe tape

When screwing piping or fittings into ports, ensure that chips from the pipe threads or sealing material do not enter the piping. Also, if pipe tape is used, leave 1 thread ridges exposed at the end of the threads.

4. Closed center and double check valve types

For the closed center or double check valve types, check the piping to prevent air leakage from the piping between the valve and the cylinder.

5. Connection of fittings

When screwing fittings into valves, tighten as follows.

(1) Follow the procedures below when installing an

SMC fitting, etc.

・ M5 types

After tightening the fitting by hand, use a wrench to tighten the fitting an additional approximately

1/6 to 1/4 turn. As a reference value, tightening torque is 1 to 1.5 N ･ m.

Note) If tightened excessively, the thread of the product may break or the gasket may deform. If tightened insufficiently, the thread of the product may become loose. In either case, air leakage can occur.

(with additives) ISO VG32.

Lubrication amount

If the lubrication amount is excessive, the oil may accumulate inside the pilot valve, causing malfunction or response delay. So, do not apply a large amount of oil. When a large amount of oil needs to be applied, use an external pilot type to put the supply air on the pilot valve side in the non-lube state. This prevents the accumulation of oil inside the pilot valve.

Air Supply

Warning

1. Type of fluids

Please consult with SMC when using the product in applications other than compressed air.

2. When there is a large amount of drainage.

Compressed air containing a large amount of drainage can cause malfunction of pneumatic equipment. An air dryer or water separator should be installed upstream from filters.

3. Drain flushing

If condensation in the drain bowl is not emptied on a regular basis, the bowl will overflow and allow the condensation to enter the compressed air lines. It causes malfunction of pneumatic equipment. If the drain bowl is difficult to check and remove, installation of a drain bowl with an auto drain option is recommended. For compressed air quality, refer to SMC’s Best Pneumatics catalog.

- 7 -

4. Use clean air

Do not use compressed air that contains chemicals, synthetic oils including organic solvents, salt or corrosive gasses, etc., as it can cause damage or malfunction.

Caution

1. When extremely dry air is used as the fluid, degradation of the lubrication properties in side the equipment may occur, resulting in reduced reliability (or reduced service life) of the equipment. Please consult with

SMC.

2. Install an air filter.

Specific Product Precautions 2

Be sure to read this before handling

Back Pressure Check Valve Light/Surge Voltage Suppressor

There are two types of back pressure check valves; the one which is built into a valve (with rubber seal type only) and the one which is built in on the manifold side with connector connection. Both of them have a check valve built-in to prevent back pressure. For this reason, use caution that the valves with external pilot specification cannot be pressurized from exhaust port [3/5(E)]. As compared with the types which do not integrate the back pressure check valve, C value of the flow rate characteristics goes down. Please contact SMC for details.

Exhaust Throttle

The SY series pilot valve and main valve share a common exhaust inside the valve. Therefore, do not block the exhaust port when arranging the piping.

Used as a 3-Port Valve

■

In case of using a 5-port valve as a 3-port valve

The SY3000/5000/7000 series can be used as normally closed (N.C.) or normally open (N.O.)

3-port port valves by closing one of the cylinder ports 4(A) or 2(B) with a plug. However, they should be used with the exhaust ports kept open. They are convenient at times when a double solenoid type

3-port valve is required.

Valve and Manifold Combination

The SY series plug-in valve has the common configuration of the valve mounting surface between base mounted type (SY3/5/7

□0□) and top ported type

(SY3/5/7

□3□), therefore, it can be mounted to all manifolds of the side ported type (type 50 and type 10), the bottom

0 ported type (type 51 and type 11) and the top ported type (type 52 and type 12).

For example, air output can be obtained from both sides of the A and B ports of the manifold and the valve by mounting a top ported valve to a side ported or bottom ported manifold , and a pressure switch can be connected to the output port on one side.

However, when selecting valves and manifolds, note that when a base mounted valve is mounted to a top ported manifold, there will be no output from the A and B port.

Light/Surge Voltage Suppressor Continuous Duty

If a valve is energized continuously for a long period of time, the rise in temperature due to heat-up of the coil assembly may cause a decline in solenoid valve performance, reduce service life, or have adverse effects on peripheral equipment. If the valve is energized continuously for a long period of time, be sure to use a valve with power saving circuit. In particular, if three or more adjacent stations on the manifold are energized simultaneously for extended periods of time or if the valves on A side and B side are energized simultaneously for a long period of time, take special care as the temperature rise will be greater.

Entry Direction

Connector direction for electrical entry of D-sub connector, flat ribbon cable and PC wiring can be changed. If the directional change is required, push the lever on both sides to remove the connector and change the connector direction for electrical entry as shown in the figure. Since lead wire assemblies are attached to the connector, excessive pulling or twisting can cause broken wires or other trouble.

Also, take precautions so that lead wires are not caught and pinched when installing the connector.

Type 1

□ (Connector Connecting Base)

Changing Connector Entry Direction

Connector direction for electrical entry of D-sub connector, flat ribbon cable and PC wiring can be changed. If the directional change is required, slide the lever on the side of the connector block to the FREE position, and then change the direction as shown in the figure. Also, before connecting the connector, be sure to return the lever to the LOCK position. (If the lever is difficult to slide, move the connector a little bit to make it easier to slide the lever.) If an excessive force is applied on the connector in the LOCK position, the connector block may be damaged.

Also, using in such a way that the connector floats in the FREE position, it may cause the lead wire, etc. to break. Thus,refrain from using in these ways.

Substrate Assemblies inside Manifolds Port Block Assembly and How to Change

Piping Types between Top and Side

Substrate assemblies inside of manifolds cannot be taken

For top ported type, the port size of A and B ports can be apart. Attempting to do so may damage parts.

Fixation of DIN Rail Mounting Type Manifold

1. When the manifold is fixed with bolts on a mounting surface, etc., it can be operated just by fixing on both ends of the DIN rail if the bottom surface of the DIN rail is entirely in contact with the mounting surface when mounted horizontally. However, if it is used with other mounting or with side or reverse mounting, fix the DIN rail with bolts at regular intervals. As a guide, insert bolts in 2 positions for 2-5 stations, 3 positions for 6-10 stations, 4 positions for 11-15 stations, 5 positions for 16-20 stations and 6 positions for 21-24 stations. Take the same measures for horizontal mounting if the mounting surface vibrates.

2. When using the manifold with DIN rail in an environment where any vibration or impact is applied to it, the DIN rail itself may be broken. In particular, if the installation surface vibrates when mounting the manifold on the wall or if a load is directly applied to the manifold, the DIN rail may be broken, causing the manifold to drop. When any vibration, impact, or load is applied to the manifold, be sure to use the direct mounting manifold.

- 13 changed by switching the port block assemblies which are mounted on the body. The piping method can also be changed by switching the top ported type port block assembly with the side ported type cover assembly. Also, it may cause air leakage if the mounting screws are not tightened securely enough when they are switched. Take care to tighten to the correct tightening torque.

When switching them while valves are mounted on a manifold, remove the clip with a flat head screwdriver before switching the plug Ass’y and the One-touch fittings.

It may cause air leakage if the mounting screws are not tightened or the clip is not inserted securely enough when they are switched. Take care to tighten to the correct tightening torque.

4(A), 2(B), 1(P), 3/5(E) ports.

When replacing the One-touch fittings, remove the clip or the plate and the plate mounting screws with a screwdriver before pulling the One-touch fittings off.

Mount the One-touch fittings by following the removal procedure in reverse. It may cause air leakage if the mounting screws are not tightened or the clip and the clip plate are not inserted securely enough when they are switched. Take care to tighten to the correct tightening torque.

Other Tube Brands

1. When using other than SMC brand tube, confirm

■ Tube attachment/detachment for

One-touch fittings

1) Tube attachment

- 14 that the following specifications are satisfied with respect to the tube outside diameter tolerance.

Do not use tube which do not meet these outside diameter tolerances. It may not be possible to connect them, or they may cause other trouble, such as air leakage or the tube pulling out after connection.

One-touch Fittings

1. Take a tube having no flaws on its periphery and cut it off at a right angle. When cutting the tube, use tube cutters TK-1, 2 or 3. Do not use pinchers, nippers or scissors, etc. If cutting is done with tools other than tube cutters, the tube may be cut diagonally or become flattened, etc., making a secure installation impossible. Allow some extra length in the tube.

2. Grasp the tube and push it in slowly, inserting it securely all the way into the fitting.

3. After inserting the tube, pull on it lightly to confirm that it will not come out. If it is not installed securely all the way into the fitting, this can cause problems such as air leakage or the tube pulling out.

2) Tube detachment

1. Push in the release button sufficiently, pushing its collar equally around the circumference.

2. Pull out the tube while holding down the release button so that it does not come out. If the release button is not pressed down sufficiently, there will be increased bite on the tube and it will become more difficult to pull it out.

3. When the removed tube is to be used again, cut off the portion which has been chewed before reusing it. If the chewed portion of the tube is used as is, this can cause trouble such as air leakage or difficulty in removing the tube.

Remedy

No.

Remedy

① Regulate voltage, so that the voltage at the time of the operation becomes specifications range.

②

③

Re-wire correctly.

Replace part.

④

⑤

⑥

Replace part or re-wire positively.

Replace valve.

Regulate pressure so that pilot pressure will fall within operating pressure range furing operation.

･ If wrong oil is used, completely air blow to remove oil, and replace valve. After valve is replaced, use turbine oil class 1 (ISO VG32).

⑦

･ When a large quantity of drain is given and cannot carry out drain omission surely, install either an auto-drain or a dryer.The valve should be replaced.

⑧ Check voltage. Replace valve (pilot valve).

⑨ Protect the valve so that water does not splash the coil. Replace valve (pilot valve).

⑩

In case of intrusion of foreign matter, to remove foreign matter by air blow of piping and then replace valve.

⑪ Repair or replace actuators.

⑫

⑬

After stopping air and re-tighten the bolts.

Reduce the amount of lubricant to the degree that no oil splashes out of the air exhaust (E) port.

If no improvement is achieved in spite of the above countermeasure, inside of the valve may have some abnomality. In this case, stop using the valve immediately.

If any of followings are carried out, inside of the valve may have some failure. In this case, stop using the valve immediately.

① Voltage out of rated voltage has been used.

② Oil other than the specified one has been lubricated.

③ Lubrication has been stopped intermediately, or lubrication was suspended temporary.

④ Water splashed directely.

⑤ Strong impact was given.

⑥ Alien substance such as drain and particle got into. Drain or garbage invaded a valve.

⑦ Prohibited way of using the valve which is written at "Precautions" section in this operation manual

was carried out excluding above-mentioned.

In addition, in the case of trouble, please send it back to the supplier for repair or replacement.
