Product Overview
SMC model VQD1121-5L-M5 is a compact 4-port, 2-position direct operated poppet valve designed for precise compressed air and inert gas control. Built with an internal spring return mechanism, it operates across a pressure range from 0 to 0.7 MPa and supports vacuum lines down to -100 kPa. The body-ported construction incorporates M5 x 0.8 female metric ports and an L-type electrical plug interface for clean integration into automated equipment or custom pneumatic builds.

- Maker and hobbyist builds requiring fast-acting 24V pneumatic switching for custom robotics, animatronics, or automated sorting mechanisms.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can this valve be used for vacuum service?
Yes. The valve operates from 0 to 0.7 MPa and supports vacuum down to -100 kPa.
What port thread size is used on the valve body?
All pneumatic ports on this body-ported unit are threaded for standard M5 x 0.8 fittings.
What power supply and wiring connection does this unit require?
The solenoid operates on 24 V DC power and connects directly via the included two-wire L-plug harness.
Compact poppet valves like this keep automation crisp and predictable. Wire the harness, thread your M5 fittings, and let the cycle run.
