Basic circuit
This series can supplement the ca-
pacity of conventional air-hydro valve
units. They are suited to operate large
bore cylinders as well as to simultane-
ously operate multiple cylinders and
suspend their operation. Thus they can
be used in the same way as the con-
ventional air-hydro units.
When speed controller is
mounted
Connect a speed controller
(Series AS etc.) to A port of
VNA11 (in order to protect
the speed control valve from
surges when cylinder opera-
tion is suspended, thus im-
proving stopping accuracy).
Refer to Air-hydro Unit pages in “Best Pneumatics
No. 2” for further information on air-hydro.

Construction

C.O. type does not have a return spring u.
Working Principle
VNA01, 11 (N.C.)
When the pilot solenoid valve i is not energized (or when air is ex-
hausted from the port 12(P1) of the air operated style), the valve ele-
ment r linked to the piston t is closed by the return spring u.
When valve element opens
When the pilot solenoid valve is energized (or when pressurized air
enters through the port 12(P1) of the air operated style), the pilot
air that has entered under the piston moves upward to open the
valve element.
When valve element closes
When the power to the pilot solenoid valve is turned off (or when
fluid is exhausted from the port 12(P1) of the air operated style),
the pilot air under the piston is exhausted, and the return spring
closes the valve element.
VNA02, 12(N.C.)
In contrast with the N.C., when the power to the pilot solenoid valve is
turned off (or when air is exhausted from the port 10(P2) of the air op-
erated style), the valve is held open by the return spring. When the pi-
lot solenoid valve is energized (or when pressurized air enters
through the port 10(P2) of the air operated style), the valve element
closes.
VNA03 (C.O.)
The valve element of the C.O. type, which has no return spring, is in
an arbitrary position when air is exhausted through the ports 12(P1)
and 10(P2). When pressurized air enters the port 12(P1) (exhaust
from the port 10(P2)), the valve element opens, and it closes when
pressurized air enters the port 10(P2) (exhaust from the port 12(P1)).

Caution
1. Piping
Surge pressure is generated between
the cylinder and the VNA during inter-
mediate stoppage.
To directly thread in the cylinder, use
durable fittings (Stainless steel square
nipples etc,) instead of ductile iron fit-
tings (JIS B 2301) or steel pipe fittings
(JIS B 2302).
When VNA is installed away from the
cylinder, use a high-pressure rubber
hose (JIS B 6349) instead of steel pipe,
when possible.
1. Air bleeding
Series VNA valves have no air bleeding
port. Bleed air comes from the middle
piping. Bleeding by a vacuum pump is
more effective.
2. Hydraulic fluid
Turbine oil, Grade 1 ISO VG32, with
petroleum hydraulic fluid is recommen-
ded.
3. Speed control valve
The combination shown in the following
table is recommended for best perfor-
mance of the Series VNA. (Piping: JIS K
6349 high pressure hose)
1. Pilot port piping
12(P1) and 10(P2) piping should be as
follows according to the model
Installing a silencer to the exhaust port
and the bleed port is recommended for
noise reduction and for dust entry preven-
tion.
When high temperature fluids are used,
use fittings and tubing with heat resistant
features.
(Self-align fittings, Teflon
®
tubing, Copper
tubing, etc.)

Caution
Caution
Mounting Direction of Pilot
Solenoid Valve
With external pilot solenoids, the pilot solenoid
valves are not splash proof specifications, and
so care must be taken not to get fluid on one-
self such as when performing maintenance.
Warning
Direction of mounting
When replacing a valve, if an external pi-
lot solenoid valve is mounted in the wrong
direction, it may malfunction or leak air.

Power voltage and
electrical entry
(External pilot solenoid)
Construction
Select the air operated or external pilot
solenoid styles. Valves come in N.C. (nor-
mally closed), N.O. (normally open), C.O.
(double acting), and N.C. 1 MPa (normal-
ly closed) types. Select the
proper one
according to the operating conditions.
Flow characteristics
(Air, Water)
Applicable fluids
Refer to “Table (1)” to check that the de-
sired fluid is applicable.
Select the body and sealing materials,
depending on the fluid.
To find the flow rate of air or water, refer
to the table of flow rate characteristics on
page 10 to 16. Use the flow rate calcula-
tion equation to find the exact answer. Al-
though the flow rate is the same, the op-
erating pressure differs according to the
valve size. Therefore, select the proper
valve size from applicable valves.
Refer to “Table (2)” to select the port size
of the threaded type (6A to 50A) and
flanges (32F to 50F).
Select the AC/DC power source and
choose the electrical entry according to
“Table (3)”.

VNB0 , 1 (N.C.)
When the pilot solenoid valve u is not energized (or when air is ex-
hausted from the port P1 of the air operated type), the valve element
r linked to the piston t is closed by the return spring y.
When valve opens
When the pilot solenoid valve is energized (or when pressurized air
enters through the port P1 of the air operated style), the pilot air that
has entered under the piston moves upward to open the valve ele-
ment.
When valve closes:
When the power to the pilot solenoid valve is turned off (or when
fluid is exhausted from the port P1 of the air operated style), the pi-
lot air under the piston is exhausted, and the return spring closes
the valve element.
VNB
02, 12 (N.O.)
In contrast with the N.C., when the power to the pilot solenoid valve is
turned off (or when air is exhausted from the port P2 of the air opera-
ted style), the valve is held open by the return spring. When the pilot
solenoid valve is energized (or when pressurized air enters through
the port P2 of the air operated style), the valve element closes.
VNB
03 (C.O.)
The valve element for the C.O. type, which has no return spring, is in
an arbitrary position when air is exhausted through the ports P1 and

Specific Product Precautions
Be sure to read before handling. Refer to front matters 42 and 43 for Safety Instruc-
tions, and pages 17 to 19 for 2 Port Solenoid Valves for Fluid Control Precautions.
External Pilot
Pilot port P1 and P2 piping
Please arrange P1 and P2 piping as follows according to the
model.
Caution
Mounting Direction of Pilot Solenoid Valve
With external pilot solenoids, the pilot solenoid valves are not
splash proof specifications, and so care must be taken not to get
fluid on oneself such as when performing maintenance.
Warning
Direction of mounting
When replacing a valve, if an external pilot solenoid valve is
mounted in the wrong direction, it may malfunction or leak air.
Caution
Piping
When high temperature fluids are used, use fittings and tube with
heat resistant features.
(Self-align fittings, Teflon
®
tubing, Copper piping, etc.)
Caution
Vacuum Pilot
When using the VNB 1V N.C. vacuum pilot, maintain the
specified pilot pressure by providing a tank with an appropriate
capacity or by acquiring the pilot pressure from an area near the
vacuum pump.
Caution

N.C. (Return spring normally closed)
When the pilot solenoid valve o is not energized (or when air is ex-
hausted from the port 12(P1) for air operated style), the valve body
r connected to the piston y is closed by the return spring u.
When valve body opens
When the pilot solenoid valve is energized (or when pressurized
air enters through the port 12(P1) of the air operated style), the pi-
lot air that has entered under the piston moves upward to open
the valve element.
When valve body closes
When the power to the pilot solenoid valve is turned off (or when
fluid is exhausted from the port 12(P1) of the air operated style),
the pilot air under the piston is exhausted, and the return spring
closes the valve element.
N.O.
N.O. (Return spring normally open)
In contrast with the N.C., when the pilot solenoid valve is not
energized (or when air is exhausted from the port 10(P2) of the air
operated style), the valve body is opened by the return spring.
When the pilot solenoid valve is energized (or when pressurized
air enters through the port 10(P2) of the air operated style), the
valve body closes.

External Pilot
Pilot port 12(P1) and 10(P2) piping
P1 and P2 piping should be as follows
according to the model.
Installing a silencer to the exhaust port and the
bleed port is recommended for noise reduction
and for dust entry prevention.
Caution
Piping
When high temperature fluids are used,
use fittings and tube with heat resistant
features. (Self-align fittings, Teflon
®
tubing,
Copper piping, etc.)
Caution
Caution
Pilot Solenoid Valve
With external pilot solenoids, the pilot sole-
noid valves are not splash proof specifica-
tions, and so care must be taken not to get
fluid on oneself such as when performing
maintenance.
Warning
Direction of mounting
When replacing a valve, if an external pi-
lot solenoid valve is mounted in the wrong
direction, it may malfunction or leak air.

Back Pressure of 3 Port Valve (VNH13)
1. Ensure that back pressure of 3 port from VNH13 is less than 5 MPa.
Caution
Quality of Operating Fluid
Please note that using fluids that contain foreign mterial (especially hard objects like glass
chips), may cause damage to the valve, will reduce sealing performance, and may cause
early failure.
Caution
Piping
When high temperature fluids are used, use fittings and tubing with heat resistant fea-
tures. (Self-align fittings, Teflon
®
tubing, Copper tubing, etc.)
Caution
Pilot Solenoid Valve
With external pilot solenoids, the pilot solenoid valves are not splash proof specifications, and
so care must be taken not to get fluid on oneself such as when performing maintenance.
Warning
Direction of mounting
When replacing a valve, if an external pilot solenoid valve is mounted in the wrong direction, it
may malfunction or leak air.
Caution
Series VNH
Specific Product Precautions
Be sure to read before handling.
Refer to front matters 42 and 43 for Safety Instructions, and pages 17 to 19 for 2 Port
Solenoid Valves for Fluid Control Precautions.
