VV3QZ12-06C: Compact, Efficient, and Precise Flow Control! Pilot-Operated 3-Way Solenoid Valve Empowers Universal Automation

In automated equipment, there is a common need for fast and reliable directional control of single-acting cylinders, pneumatic grippers, and similar components. The VV3QZ12-06C is a general-purpose pilot-operated 3-way solenoid valve. With its compact structure, efficient pilot control, and stable performance, it is an ideal choice for driving single-acting actuators.Core Product AdvantagesEfficient Pilot-Operated ControlUtilizes a pilot-operated design, employing a small electromagnetic force to control the main air path. This results in low power consumption, fast response, and makes it suitable for frequent start-stop applications.Single Solenoid with Spring ReturnFeatures single-coil control (“QZ12” likely indicates single solenoid). The valve spool shifts when energized and returns to its initial position via a spring automatically upon de-energization, ensuring high safety.Compact and Lightweight DesignThe valve body is structurally compact and lightweight, requiring minimal installation space, making it ideal for space-constrained applications.Manual Override FunctionIncludes a manual override button (push-pull type) for convenient debugging, maintenance during power loss, or emergency intervention.Broad Voltage CompatibilityThe coil supports various standard voltage specifications, such as DC24V/AC220V (“06C” may indicate a voltage code), allowing compatibility with different electrical control environments.Typical Application Scenarios

• Automated Equipment:​ Controlling the extension and spring-return of single-acting cylinders.
• Gripper Systems:​ Driving the clamping and releasing of pneumatic grippers.
• General Industrial Machinery:​ Widely used in various mechanical equipment requiring pneumatic directional control.
