Smc Pneumatics NVM430-N01-01 Roller Lever Valve 1/8 Npt

Product Description

The SMC PNEUMATICS NVM430-N01-01 is a mechanically operated directional control valve designed for pneumatic systems requiring reliable, cam- or lever-actuated switching. It uses a roller lever actuator to shift between three positions across three ports, making it well suited for sequencing and motion control applications in automated machinery. The valve features a 1/8 inch NPT inlet and carries a Cv rating of 0.380, indicating the flow capacity available through the valve body. Licensed pneumatic technicians and industrial maintenance professionals typically specify and install this type of valve in compressed-air circuit assemblies.

This valve is intended for use in industrial pneumatic circuits where mechanical actuation from a moving machine member, such as a cam, rod, or actuator arm, is required to trigger a directional change in airflow. It is commonly installed in automated assembly equipment, material handling systems, and machine tool applications that require a mechanically triggered pneumatic signal. The three-position, three-port configuration allows for specific circuit logic that a two-position valve cannot provide, giving system designers additional control flexibility.

Key Features

• Roller lever actuator provides consistent, repeatable mechanical actuation from cams or moving machine components
• Three-port, three-position valve design supports advanced pneumatic circuit logic
• 1/8 inch NPT inlet fits standard small-bore pneumatic circuit piping and fittings
• Cv rating of 0.380 suitable for low-to-moderate flow pneumatic control circuits
• Compact valve body suits panel-mount and machine-frame installation in tight spaces

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit component for industrial pneumatic control circuits requiring a mechanically operated, roller lever actuated, 3-port 3-position valve with a 1/8 inch NPT connection.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified pneumatic systems technician. Depressurize and exhaust the pneumatic circuit completely before removing or installing any valve. Verify that NPT threads are sealed with appropriate thread tape or compound rated for compressed air service, and confirm the roller lever alignment with the actuating cam or rod before pressurizing the system. Follow applicable compressed air safety standards and equipment manufacturer guidelines during installation and commissioning.
