AirTAC 3V106A-15 Solenoid Valve, 3V1 Series (3V106A15F)
The AirTAC AirTAC 3V106A-15 Solenoid Valve, 3V1 Series (3V106A15F) is a genuine 3-port 2-position (3/2) solenoid valve with 1/8 in ports. It either feeds its outlet or vents it to exhaust, which is what makes it the valve for single-acting cylinders, on/off air blow, clamping, vacuum switching and pilot duty.

About the AirTAC 3V106A-15 Solenoid Valve, 3V1 Series (3V106A15F)
The 3V106A15F is a fifteen-station AirTAC 3V1 assembly: fifteen 3/2 direct-acting valves ganged on one 1/8in PT manifold, each with its own AC220V DIN-plug coil rated 4.5 VA. Three ports per valve (supply, outlet, exhaust) and two positions mean every station independently feeds or vents the line it controls.
Spring return gives a defined state on de-energisation, and the built-in manual override lets you jog each station during commissioning without power. Keep the supply filtered to 40 um or finer - no lubricator is needed - and rely on the IP65 (DIN 40050) coil enclosure in dusty electrical cabinets.

What a 3/2 Valve Does
A 3/2 valve has three ports — supply, outlet and exhaust — and two states. It either feeds the outlet or vents it to exhaust, and that is the whole job.
That makes it the right valve for a single-acting (spring-return) cylinder, on/off air blow, a clamp, switching a vacuum generator or suction cup, and piloting a larger valve.
It cannot run a double-acting cylinder. A double-acting cylinder needs air alternately on two sides, which takes a 5-port valve — the AirTAC 4V series.
Where the AirTAC 3V106A-15 Solenoid Valve, 3V1 Series (3V106A15F) Is Used
PCB dust pulse at reflow exit
Delivers a timed blast of filtered air across circuit boards leaving a reflow oven, knocking loose flux dust before visual inspection.
Bottling-line label head
Feeds a spring-return lift cylinder that drops the labelling head onto each bottle, then exhausts the line so the head retracts for the next container.
Print-register micro-adjust
Pulses a small single-acting pusher that nudges web guides on a label press during register correction, venting to release once the mark is found.
Is the AirTAC 3V106A-15 Solenoid Valve, 3V1 Series (3V106A15F) the Right Part?
Flow data first: the 3V1 range has no published Cv, so treat it as a small-duty body and confirm any flow-sensitive job with us. With fifteen stations sharing one supply, this assembly suits light pilot and single-acting actuation; for heavier lines choose the 3V2 (1/8in and 1/4in, NC or NO selectable, Cv 0.18-0.19, vacuum-rated) or the 3V3 (1/4in, Cv 0.62), and pick the 3V2M when compact manifold density is the priority rather than flow. Double-acting cylinders are outside a 3/2 valve's reach - the AirTAC 4V series covers them.
Match on five things before ordering: port size (M5 or 1/8in), thread family (PT standard, G or NPT to order), coil voltage, DIN plug versus flying lead, and the manifold station count - fifteen here, with 1F to 20F available in the family.
Confirm before you order
- ✓ Port size and thread (PT from stock; G / NPT to order)
- ✓ Coil voltage matches your controller output
- ✓ Electrical entry — DIN plug or flying lead
- ✓ Single valve, bare base, or complete assembly
- ✓ Single-acting duty, not double-acting
Installation & Wiring Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Stay within 0-0.8 MPa (0-114 psi) operating pressure.
- check Match the coil voltage to your controller output.
- check Use the manual override to test before powering up.
- check Leave the exhaust port clear, or fit a silencer.
- check Blank any unused station on the base before pressurising.
- check Wiring by qualified personnel, per AirTAC documentation.
AirTAC 3V106A-15 Solenoid Valve, 3V1 Series (3V106A15F) FAQ
Pressure 0-0.8 MPa (0-114 psi); temperature -20 to 70 C; each AC220V coil draws 4.5 VA; enclosure protection IP65 (DIN 40050); fifteen 3/2 stations on 1/8in PT ports. Note that no flow coefficient (Cv) is published for the 3V1 series - confirm flow-critical sizing with us.
The 3V1 family comes as individual valves or series-mounted manifolds from 1F to 20F - this SKU is the 15F build. Stations share one air supply on the manifold base while each keeps its own coil and override, so they can be controlled independently. The valve is supplied in a single fixed initial state - confirm it on the datasheet.
