With power-saving circuit
Power consumption is decreased to approx. 1/3 (for SJ3
m
60T)
compared with the standard model by reducing the wattage re-
quired to hold the valve in an energized state. (Effective ener-
gizing time is over 67 ms at 24 VDC.)
Caution
Light/Surge Voltage Suppressor
If a valve is energized continuously for long periods of time, the
rise in temperature due to heat-up of the coil assembly may
cause a decline in solenoid valve performance, reduce the ser-
vice life, or have adverse effects on peripheral equipment. If the
valve is energized continuously for long periods of time, be sure
to use a valve with power-saving circuit (continuous duty type). In
particular, if three or more adjacent stations on the manifold are
energized simultaneously for extended periods of time or if the
valves on A side and B side are energized simultaneously for
long periods of time, take special care as the temperature rise will
be greater.
If the continuously energized time exceeds three hours, please
contact SMC.
Continuous Duty
When using a 4-port valve as a 3-port valve
The SJ1000/2000/3000 series can be used as normally closed
(N.C.) or normally open (N.O.) 3-port valves by closing one of
the cylinder ports 4(A) or 2(B) with a plug. However, they
should be used with the exhaust ports kept open. They are
convenient at times when a double solenoid type 3-port valve is
required.
