Re: Solenoid questions

I believe the valves provided by SMC and Festo in the FRC Kit of Parts can be classified as 4/5 port valves. They have 1 input, 2 outputs (A and B), and then a relief for each output (EA and EB). The block had two positions, one which would feed the input to A and put B to relief EB, and vice versa. SYJ5000 and SYJ3000 look very similar to the valves we've had in the past. Searching SY3140-6H-S (the part number of an '08 valve) on their website came up with the SY3000 series.

Hope that helps.
