SMC has launched a new compact and lightweight wireless communication system, the EXW1 series, which has an increased communication distance of 100 meters, uses 2.4 GHz ISM frequency bandwidth and frequency hopping technology for high interference immunity, and also adds an external antenna (IP67) to enable communication through an external antenna even if the basic module/remote module is installed in a metal shielded space such as a control cabinet or control box. It can also be mixed with the existing EX600-W series. With faster communication speeds, response times, and stronger data transmission capabilities, it is widely used in factory automation environments.
Application examples
01Suitable for quick mold changes in casting applications.
02Carbon fiber fiber laying machine suitable for aerospace industry.
03Filling machine for beer and beverage industry.
Compact and lightweight
△Approx. 86% reduction in volume* and 87% reduction in weight*
* In the case of e-CON type (Comparison with the remote module of the modular EX600-W: M8 connector / digital 8-point input specification.)
The communication distance is up to 100m, the speed is up to 1Mbps, and the response time is as fast as 2ms.
No communication cables are required
△Reduce wiring man-hours· space · costs, and reduce the risk of disconnection.
Compatible with external antennas
△ Corresponding to IP67 protection level.
△Even if the basic module/remote module is installed in a metal-shielded space such as a control cabinet or control box, communication can be carried out via an external antenna.
It can be mixed with the modular EX600-W
△The compact EXW1 and the modular EX600-W can be mixed* to shorten the communication connection time (start-up time).

SMC FAQ - Why does the 5-port solenoid valve operate poorly at low pressure (0.1MPa)?
The internal pilot operated solenoid valve uses the pilot pressure to switch the spool and change (control) the flow path. If the pilot pressure does not reach the minimum operating pressure of the switching spool (0.1-0.2MPa: varies depending on the model), the switching will be defective. If you want to use a 5-way solenoid valve at low pressure, you can use ...
