The notation 5/2 means five ports and two positions: supply, two outlet ports, two exhaust ports, and two switching states. It is the standard choice for double-acting cylinders.
For single-acting cylinders or air-assisted functions, a 3/2 valve (three ports, two positions) with normally-closed or normally-open behavior is used.
Pay attention to coil voltage (DC24V, AC220V are common), power consumption and whether the valve is NPT, RC or G threaded to match your piping standard.
Our SY, VF and MVSC series cover the common port sizes from M5 to RC3/8 with bracket and manifold mounting options.
