When the brand on your machine is out of stock, too costly or too slow to arrive, V.S. Enterprises can offer an equivalent from another brand we stock. We check the fit first and tell you exactly what differs.
Pick the product type and the brand on your machine. You will see brand products linked to that product type in our catalogue. Catalogue matches are candidates only; compatibility and stock must be confirmed against your part number.
No brands match the selected product type and brand.
Two “single solenoid valves” can still differ in port size, voltage or mounting. These are the points we compare before we call a part equivalent.
With every alternative we offer, we note what is identical and what differs, for example “same mounting, body 6 mm longer”, so your team can approve it with full information.
A shared dimensional standard is one check. Confirm the full specifications and application requirements before replacing a part.
| Standard | What it fixes | Where it helps |
|---|---|---|
| ISO 15552 | Mounting dimensions of standard cylinders | Swapping DNC-type / ISO cylinders across brands |
| ISO 6432 | Dimensions of mini round cylinders | Small-bore round cylinders |
| ISO 21287 | Dimensions of compact cylinders | Short-stroke compact cylinders |
| Metric tube OD | Outside diameter of push-in tube | Mixing push-in fittings and PU tube of the same size |
Check warranty, validation and safety requirements before considering a replacement.
When the builder’s warranty requires original parts.
Pharma and food lines where any part change needs formal change control.
Press, lifting and guarding circuits where the original part is part of a safety design.
Steam, high pressure and gas duties where the alternative’s rating cannot be confirmed.
Matched sets where one different valve will not mount or communicate.
If you ask for one brand only, we quote only that brand.
Links show active catalogue entries explicitly mapped to each product type. They do not confirm current stock or technical compatibility.
