1. Product Specific Precautions 1
Common Specific Precautions 1
Precautions on Design
Warning
●All models
1. The body material is SCS13, the bellows is SUS316L, and other metal seal material is
SUS304. Standard seal material in the vacuum section is FKM that can be changed to the
other materials (please refer “How to Order”). Use fluids those are compatible with using
materials after confirming.
Grease for vacuum is applied to the sliding part of the vacuum (Fluorine grease: Y-VAC2).
2. Select materials for the actuation pressure piping, and heat resistance for fittings that are
suitable for the applicable operating temperatures.
●Models with auto switch
1. The switch section should be kept at the temperature no greater than 60 oC
Selection
Caution
●All models
1.
When controlling valve responsiveness, take note of the size and length of piping, as well
as the flow rate characteristics of the actuating solenoid valve.
2.
Actuating pressure should be kept within the specified range.
0.4 MPa to 0.5 MPa is recommended.
3.
Use within the limits of the operating pressure range.
●High temperature type
1.
In the case of gases which cause a large amount of deposits, heat the valve body to prevent
deposits in the valve.
Be sure to read before handling.
Mounting
Caution
● All models
1.
In high humidity environments, keep the valve packed until the time of installation.
2.
In case with switches, secure the lead wires so that they have sufficient slack, without any
unreasonable force applied to them.
3.
Perform piping so that excessive force is not applied to the flange sections. In case there
is vibration of heavy objects or attachments, secure them so that torque is not applied
directly to the flanges.
4.
Vibration resistance allows for normal operation of up to 30 m/s2 (45 to 250Hz), but
continuous vibration may cause a decline in durability.
Arrange piping to avoid excessive vibration or impacts.
●High temperature type (temperature specification / H0)
1.
When a valve is to be heated, only the body section should be heated, excluding the bonnet
section.
Piping
Caution
1.
Before mounting, clean the surface of the flange seal and the O-ring with ethanol, etc.
2.
There is an indentation of 0.1 to 0.2mm in order to protect the flange seal surface, and it
should be handled so that the seal surface is not damaged in any way.

Maintenance
Warning
If the fluid or reaction product (deposit) may cause the valve to become unsafe, the valve
should be disassembled, cleaned and re-assembled by an operator who has sufficient
knowledge and experience (e.g. a specialist).
Caution
1. When removing deposits from the a valve, take care not to damage any part of its parts.
2. Replace the bonnet assembly and the O-ring when the end of its service life is approached.
*For details regarding endurance cycles, please reference Section 7 of this Operation manual
titled Period and scope of warranty . (pages 11)
3. If damage is suspected prior to the end of the service life, perform early maintenance.
4. SMC specified parts should be used for service. Refer to the Construction / Maintenance
parts table.
5. When removing the valve seal and external seal, take care not to damage the sealing
surfaces. When installing the valve seal and external seal, be sure that the O-ring is not
twisted. (Refer to Section 8 Parts Replacement Procedure (pages 12 to 15) for details.)

5. Operation
5-1. Adjusting the opening of the valve for initial pumping
Adjust the initial pumping amount with no air pressure to the pilot port S before using. Initial flow
is reduced by turning the adjustment nut clockwise. It is increased by turning it counterclockwise.
The location where the nut gently stops during rotation clockwise and counterclockwise indicates
the initial flow zero and the maximum flow. If the nut is rotated too much, it may damage the nut.
The adjustment nut shall be operated by hand. Do not use any tool. If the rotation of the
adjustment nut feels heavy, please refer to the following items.
The adjustment nut is fully closed when the completed product is shipped. The nut is fully open
when the bonnet assembly (maintenance part) is shipped. Use caution.
5-2. Fixing adjustment nuts
The adjustment nut does not rotate during the operation of the valve. It can be fixed to prevent
incorrect operation, if required. If the adjustment nut is fixed after adjusting the initial flow, tighten
the adjustment nut set screw to the tightening torque shown in the table below. When loosening
the set screw, loosen until it stops gently. Do not remove the adjustment nut set screw.
The adjustment nut is not fixed when the product is shipped. If the rotation of the adjustment nut
feels heavy, loosen the adjustment nut set screw.

5-3. Opening the valve (s valve) for initial pumping
When the air pressure is applied to the pilot port S, the S valve will release from the S valve seal
assembly and open to the adjusted opening.
5-4. Opening the valve (valve M) for main pumping
When the air pressure is applied to the pilot port M, the valve will release from the body seat
and fully open. It operates even when air pressure is not applied to the pilot port S.
5-5. Closing the valve for initial pumping and main pumping
When the air pressure is released from the pilot port S and M, S and M valve will return and
start sealing.

7. Guaranteed term and guaranteed range
The guaranteed period covers the period which finishes the earliest among 2 million operating
cycles [with our durability test conditions], 18 months after shipping from us, and 12 months after
starting the use of the product at your place or your customer’s place.
If the specification is not kept, or any non-conformance derived from mounting or replace of a
device, an assembly, or an O-ring at your place occurs, the guarantee cannot be applied.
Note: The product durability is varied depending on the operating conditions (such as a use with
large flow rate).
If any failure occurs due to our fault during the guaranteed period, we will guarantee the
non-conformance by delivering a substitute in the worst case. However, responsibility of any
damage which is led by the product failure is not taken by us.
Result of durability test (with the circuit
shown on the right)
Internal/ external leakage and operation were
checked by opening and closing a valve in
internally evacuated condition at ordinary
temperature (room temperature).
It was confirmed that this product satisfied the
specification up to 2 million cycles.
The test was performed with FKM, the standard
sealing material.
Endurance test conditions
<Reference>
The pumping direction is not limited, but if the pumping creates a flow stream, the durability of the
product could be impaired.
Therefore, the pumping direction shown on the right figure (bellows side pumping) is recommended.
Also, the operating conditions should be checked beforehand because it affects the life.
