Smc Pneumatics VM220-N02-01A 2-way Valve Roller Lever

Product Description

The SMC PNEUMATICS VM220-N02-01A is a mechanically operated pneumatic valve designed for 2-way, 2-position flow control in compressed air and fluid power systems. Actuated by a roller lever mechanism, this valve opens or closes a flow path when physical contact is made with the lever arm, making it well-suited for limit-sensing and position-detection applications. The valve features 1/4 inch NPT inlet and outlet ports and a Cv rating of 0.87, allowing sufficient flow capacity for a range of pneumatic circuit tasks. Installation and service are typically handled by industrial maintenance technicians and fluid power specialists.

This valve is commonly used in industrial automation, machine tool, and material handling applications where mechanical actuation is required to signal or control a pneumatic circuit. The roller lever actuator is well-matched to cam-driven or moving-part triggering scenarios, such as detecting the end of travel on a cylinder or actuator. It fits into panel-mounted or inline configurations on compressed air systems and is appropriate for both OEM machine builds and field service replacements.

Key Features

• 2-way, 2-position valve configuration for simple open/close flow control
• Roller lever actuator for reliable mechanical triggering from cams or moving components
• 1/4 inch NPT inlet and outlet ports for standard compressed air plumbing
• Cv rating of 0.87 for consistent pneumatic flow performance
• 2-port design simplifies circuit integration in limit-sensing applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit valve for industrial pneumatic circuits requiring a 2-way, 2-position mechanically operated valve with 1/4 inch NPT connections and roller lever actuation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified industrial maintenance technician or fluid power specialist. Depressurize the pneumatic circuit and lock out the compressed air supply before removing or installing the valve. Ensure NPT threads are sealed with an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape and that the roller lever is aligned properly with the actuating cam or surface before returning the system to service.
