Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V106A3F-AM
The AirTAC Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V106A3F-AM 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 3V106A3F-AM
This listing is the AirTAC 3V106A3F-AM: the three-station 3V1 manifold code with its -AM ordering suffix, 1/8in PT ports and AC220V coils. Confirm the exact scope of the -AM suffix on the datasheet or with our team before you order - the base function of every section is unchanged: a 3/2, direct-acting, single-solenoid, spring-return valve that feeds or vents one line, driving single-acting cylinders, blow jets, clamps or a pilot stage.
Each AC220V coil is rated 4.5 VA with IP65 (DIN 40050) protection, and a manual override on every section makes first-time setup straightforward. If the suffix or the assembled configuration does not match your BOM, send the RFQ and we will confirm the correct code.

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 3V106A3F-AM Is Used
Mould ejector assist
Drive a single-acting ejector or knockout cylinder on a small injection tool, with the spring position venting the line between shots.
Sorting diverters
Kick a light parcel off a conveyor with a spring-return diverter cylinder; the valve vents the cylinder the moment the coil drops out.
Pick-and-place air jets
Fire a short air jet to part small stamped components from the pick head after placement, timed by the PLC through the solenoid coil.
Is the Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V106A3F-AM the Right Part?
Because AirTAC publishes no Cv for the 3V1 body, this is a valve to choose for control and packaging density, not for flow. When air demand is the deciding factor, move up to the 3V2 (1/8in or 1/4in, NC or NO selectable, Cv 0.18-0.19, vacuum rated) or the 3V3 (1/4in, Cv 0.62); when manifold density outranks flow, the 3V2M is built for exactly that. Lock down five parameters with your RFQ: the port (1/8in on this code), the thread (PT standard, G or NPT to order), the voltage (AC220V, 4.5 VA), the entry (DIN plug here, flying lead with the I code) and the station count (three here; 1F to 20F exists). For the meaning of the -AM suffix, confirm from the datasheet or ask us.
If the actuator is double-acting, stop here: a 3/2 valve cannot reverse it. Point the RFQ at the AirTAC 4V series instead.
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 3V106A3F-AM FAQ
Yes: 0-0.8 MPa (0-114 psi) operating pressure, -20 to 70 C, 4.5 VA AC220V coil (AC110V 4.5 VA, AC24V 5.0 VA, DC24V 3.0 W, DC12V 2.5 W), IP65 (DIN 40050) coils, 40 um filtration, lubrication-free operation. One caveat: there is no published Cv or effective area for 3V1, so request confirmation from us for flow-sensitive duties.
Voltage codes on this body are A (AC220V, 4.5 VA), C (AC110V, 4.5 VA), E (AC24V, 5.0 VA), B (DC24V, 3.0 W) and F (DC12V, 2.5 W); this SKU is the A version. Entry is either a DIN plug (no letter in the code) or a flying lead (the I code, e.g. 3V106AI). Choose the lead-out type when you want a wired connection instead of a plug-in socket.
