Configured as a 3-way, 2-position valve, it uses a push button mushroom-style actuator to manually shift airflow between ports. The valve carries a Cv rating of 0.870, which determines the flow capacity through the valve body. Both the inlet and outlet are sized at 1\/4 inch NPT, making it straightforward to integrate into standard compressed-air plumbing. The black valve body suits panel-mount and machine-frame installations across a wide range of pneumatic control applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis valve is suited for use in pneumatic control circuits on industrial machinery, automation equipment, and process systems where manual actuation is required to shift cylinder direction or control airflow. The mushroom-style push button actuator provides a large, positive contact surface, which is useful in applications where operators actuate the valve by hand or forearm. It is typically installed by industrial maintenance technicians, pneumatic system integrators, or automation engineers working on compressed-air circuits in manufacturing and assembly environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-way, 2-position directional control for flexible pneumatic circuit design\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMushroom-style push button actuator offers a large, ergonomic actuation surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCv rating of 0.870 supports adequate flow for small to medium bore cylinder circuits\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4 inch NPT inlet and outlet ports fit standard compressed-air plumbing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3 ports total for supply, outlet, and exhaust flow paths\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack valve body suitable for panel or machine-frame mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for pneumatic control circuits requiring a manually operated 3-way directional control valve with 1\/4 inch NPT porting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified pneumatic technician or industrial maintenance professional. Depressurize and lock out the compressed-air supply before servicing or installing the valve. Apply thread sealant compatible with pneumatic systems to NPT connections and avoid over-tightening to prevent port damage. Verify the Cv rating meets the flow demand of the connected actuator before commissioning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eValve Design\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3-Way, 2-Position\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eActuator Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Push Button (Mushroom)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Positions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Ports\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCv Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.870\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SMC PNEUMATICS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: VM230-N02-30BA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SMC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52016602939698,"sku":"VM230-N02-30BA","price":75.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/38cd316f8392f5dd801c7859a9dfb522.jpg?v=1790008801","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/smc-pneumatics-vm230-n02-30ba-3-way-valve-push-button","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
