- Guida alla selezione del modello
By Port Size
Asian market: C06 (ø6 mm) raccomandato
Mercato nordamericano: C07 (ø1/4″) raccomandato
By Installation
Per installazione fissa: select models with suffix B (including bracket)
For temporary installation or limited space: standard models without B
Note sulla sicurezza
Output is enabled only when both buttons are pressed simultaneously within 0.5 secondi.
Operating pressure must be 0.25–1 MPa; sotto 0.25 MPa, safety performance is not guaranteed.
Used on hazardous machines such as presses, shears, and benders to prevent hand injuries.
SMC two-hand control valves (mainly VR51 series) require simultaneous operation of both hands to start equipment, preventing crushing, pinching, or shearing injuries caused by operators reaching into danger zones with one hand. They are mainly used on machinery with crushing, punching, shearing, or mold-closing hazards.

Scenari applicativi
Single hazardous motion control: Single stroke, shearing, or mold closing only when both buttons are pressed together.
Safety interlock protection: Prevents hands from entering dies, lame, or press zones during machine operation.
Manual loading/unloading stations: Machine starts only after the operator removes hands from hazardous areas.
Semi-automatic stations: Without full safety guard doors, relying on operator discipline.
