Product Overview
The SMC VX212BG is a direct operated, 2-port solenoid valve engineered by SMC Corporation for precise on/off control of compatible process and pneumatic media. As a direct acting valve, the integrated solenoid coil actuates the internal plunger and seal assembly without requiring a minimum pilot pressure differential, enabling reliable operation from zero pressure up to the rated working pressure. Its 2-port (normally closed) configuration makes it a compact, responsive shut-off and isolation solution for air, inert gas, water, and select low-viscosity fluid circuits in industrial automation and process control systems.
