VM131-01-01A mechanical pneumatic valve 
Core Specifications

• Type: 2/3-Port Mechanical Valve
• Series: SMC VM100
• Actuator: Roller Lever (often used to detect a workpiece or object moving along a track)
• Port Size: \(R \frac{1}{8}\)
• Maximum Pressure: 1.0 MPa

How It Works

• A mechanical valve works just like a light switch, but for air.
• When a moving part on your machine (like a sliding door or conveyor) hits the roller lever, it pushes a small pin inside the valve body.
• This action opens or closes a channel, letting pressurized air pass through to trigger another pneumatic tool or relay.
