Description
SMC EX120-SSH1 Serial Interface Unit VQ1100-5 VVQ1000-10A-1 Solenoid Manifold
The SMC EX120-SSH1 is a serial interface unit (Model SD) that mounts at the end of an SMC VQ1000-series solenoid valve manifold, allowing the entire valve bank to be controlled over a single serial fieldbus connection rather than discrete wiring to each valve. This listing includes the complete assembly: the EX120-SSH1 serial unit plus a populated manifold carrying 15 solenoid valves across three valve models. Address is set via front-panel rotary switches (×10 and ×1 positions), and the unit provides POWER, RUN, ERR, R.SET, and HOLD LED status indicators for quick diagnostics.

Applications
The SMC EX120 series serial interface units are used in automated manufacturing and assembly systems where a large number of pneumatic solenoid valves need to be controlled from a PLC or other fieldbus controller over a single communication cable, eliminating the large discrete wiring harnesses that traditional solenoid valve banks require. The VQ1000-series manifold valves are 5-port directional control valves commonly used to actuate pneumatic cylinders, rotary actuators, and grippers in pick-and-place, packaging, semiconductor handling, and general factory automation. The EX120-SSH1 SD model supports CC-Link and similar SMC serial protocols, making this assembly a direct drop-in replacement or spare for any SMC EX120-compatible valve island installation. This type of valve manifold assembly was widely deployed in Japanese and international automotive, electronics, and food-processing plants from the mid-1990s onward and remains in active service in facilities running SMC-based pneumatic systems.
This SMC EX120-SSH1 Serial Interface Unit and solenoid valve manifold assembly has been inspected and is in good used condition. It was pulled from a working environment where it was in active use. The valve bodies and manifold base are intact; the housing on the serial unit end shows some surface soiling and discoloration, as visible in the photos. All valve labels (VQ1100-5, VVQ1000-10A-1, VQ1200-5) are legible, push-in port fittings are present, and the terminal block connections appear undamaged. Please view our photo set and contact us if you have any questions.
