Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V106A2F
The AirTAC Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V106A2F 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 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V106A2F
The AirTAC 3V106A2F puts two 3/2 solenoid valves on a single manifold base: 1/8in PT ports, AC220V coils, direct-acting spools held by a return spring. Each section has three ports - supply, outlet, exhaust - and two states, so it either pressurises the line downstream or dumps it to exhaust. That single-line action is exactly what a spring-return (single-acting) cylinder, an air blow nozzle, a clamp or a pilot stage needs.
Every coil draws just 4.5 VA at AC220V and is protected to IP65 (DIN 40050), and each valve carries a manual override for setup and fault-finding. Because the two bodies are integrated in series on one base, the assembly saves panel space over two separate valves - and the 3V1 family extends to 20 stations if you grow.

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 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V106A2F Is Used
CNC chip-blow nozzles
Two independent blow circuits - one to clear chips from the lathe tool, one to dry the finished part - controlled from a single manifold block.
Fixture clamping
Energise the AC220V coil to clamp a machined housing with a spring-return clamp cylinder; kill the signal and the spring-returned valve vents it.
Compact panel builds
Two-station control of pilot signals inside a small machine panel where every square centimetre of mounting space counts.
Is the Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V106A2F the Right Part?
3V1 is the smallest, lowest-power body in the AirTAC 3V range, and no flow coefficient is published for it. If your duty is flow-critical, step up to 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); if you need an even denser manifold and can accept less flow, 3V2M is the dedicated manifold body. To order this 3V106A2F correctly, confirm five points: port (1/8in here), thread (PT is the family standard; G and NPT are catalogue options), coil voltage (AC220V here), electrical entry (DIN plug here; the I code gives a flying lead) and the manifold station count (2F here, with 1F to 20F possible).
Note that a 3/2 valve feeds or vents a single line - it cannot reverse a double-acting cylinder. For that you need a 5-port AirTAC 4V valve.
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 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V106A2F FAQ
Operating pressure 0-0.8 MPa (0-114 psi); temperature -20 to 70 C; AC220V coil 4.5 VA (AC110V 4.5 VA, AC24V 5.0 VA, DC24V 3.0 W, DC12V 2.5 W); protection IP65 to DIN 40050; air filtered to 40 um or finer, no lubrication needed. No Cv or effective area is published for the 3V1 body, so treat any flow figure from elsewhere as unreliable.
The series accepts 1 to 20 stations, so this 2F assembly can be specified as a longer bank - such as 3F, 4F or up to 20F codes - while keeping the same 1/8in valve sections. Accessories include the 3V1-P30 connecting-screw base set, the 3V1-P31 O-ring and long screw set and the 3V1-P32 mounting-bracket set.
