Specialty Actuators – Valve Mounted
CVQ
SMC series CVQ offers a compact cylinder and valve integrated for compactness. This series offers space, energy, and labor savings. Reducing the piping between the cylinder and valve offers approximately 50% reduction in air consumption. Choose from side and axial piping. The CVQ series is designed so that the D-M9* series auto switch can be mounted flush with the cylinder profile.

MPC
SMC's low cost positioning cylinder, series MPC offers a cylinder, solenoid valve, linear positioner, and controller in one package. With its integral position control, the MPC needs only 4-20mA input signal. The target position is kept by opening and closing solenoid valves controlling pressure on the cylinder. The MPC has an output signal to give position feedback to a customer's controller. Standard ball bushings protect against side load.
CVJ3
Series CVJ3 is a valve mounted cylinder with single acting, spring return or spring extend actuation. The CVJ3 is available in a 10mm or 16mm bore with 3 mounting options. A cylinder with the auto switch installed can also be manufactured.
CVJ5
Series CVJ5 is a valve mounted, double acting cylinder. The operating style can be changed to normally retracted or normally extended. CVJ5 is available in 10mm or 16mm bores sizes with three mounting options. Series CVJ5 is auto switch capable.
CVM3
Series CVM3 is a valve mounted cylinder with single acting, spring return or spring extend actuation. CVM3 has eight mounting options available and bore sizes range from 20mm to 40mm. A cylinder with the auto switch installed can also be manufactured.
CVM5
Series CVM5 is a double acting, single rod, valve mounted cylinder. Operation style can be changed to normally retracted or normally extended. CVM5 has eight mounting options available and bore sizes range from 20mm to 40mm. Built-in One-touch fittings are also available. A cylinder with the auto switch installed can be manufactured.
CV3
Series CV3 is a valve mounted, double acting cylinder. The operation style can be changed to normally retracted or normally extended. Built-in throttle valves are provided to enable speed adjustments in each direction. CV3 has six mounting options available and bore sizes range from 40mm to 100mm. The CV3 series is auto switch capable.
MVGQ
Series MVGQ incorporates a valve, speed controller, and cylinder into one compact unit. A built-in magnet makes the MVGQ auto switch capable. Switch easily between rod extended when energized and rod retracted when energized by changing the orientation of the switching plate for SYJ3000, VZ3000, VZ5000 valves, and by changing the mounting orientation of the valves for series VF3000. The MVGQ can be mounted on the side or bottom. Two kinds of guide bearings, slide or ball bushing, are offered to suit individual use. MVGQ's built-in speed controllers make selection of meter-out or meter-in possible.
CVS1
Series CVS1 is a double acting, single rod, valve mounted cylinder with built-in speed controller. Operation style can be changed to normally retracted or normally extended. Single, double, and 3 position solenoid valves can be installed. There are seven mounting options available for the CVS1 series and bore sizes range from 40mm to 100mm. An auto switch cylinder with the switch installed can also be manufactured.
