Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V106A6F
The AirTAC Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V106A6F 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.

- Port size1/8 in
- Coil voltageAC220V
- Electrical entryDIN plug (DIN socket type)

About the Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V106A6F
Six stations make the 3V106A6F the densest 3V1 manifold block in this selection: six 3/2 direct-acting valves integrated in series on one base, in place of six separate bodies. Each 1/8in PT valve feeds or vents its own line - single-acting cylinders, clamps, blow duties or pilot signals - from a single AC220V control point.
The AC220V coils draw 4.5 VA each and meet IP65 (DIN 40050), and the supply air must pass a 40 um or finer filter - lubrication is not required. A manual override on every valve speeds loop checks during commissioning. The valves come in a single fixed initial state, so verify it on the datasheet.

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 3V106A6F Is Used
Carton diverter
Pulses the single-acting diverter blade that pushes cartons off a packaging conveyor into a rejects lane.
Analyser sequencing
Switches sample and purge air lines inside a compact gas-analyser cabinet where valve count and panel space are tight.
Welding jig clamps
Opens and closes single-acting swing clamps on a welding jig, with one valve per clamp position.
Is the Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V106A6F the Right Part?
The 6F is a panel-space play, so check it against flow: the 3V1 body has no published Cv and we should confirm anything flow-critical together. Stations needing more flow belong on 3V2 (1/8in or 1/4in, NC or NO selectable, Cv 0.18-0.19, vacuum rated) or 3V3 (1/4in, Cv 0.62); if density matters more than flow across the whole panel, 3V2M is built for exactly that. Double-acting actuators are a 4V-series job, not a 3-port one.
Confirm the five match points: port (M5 or 1/8in), thread (PT standard; G and NPT as order options), coil voltage, electrical entry (DIN plug on this code, flying lead on -I codes), and stations from 1F to 20F.
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 3V106A6F FAQ
Here: pressure 0-0.8 MPa (0-114 psi), temperature -20 to 70 C, coil power 4.5 VA at AC220V (also 4.5 VA AC110V, 5.0 VA AC24V, 3.0 W DC24V, 2.5 W DC12V), IP65 (DIN 40050) protection, and 40 um or finer air filtration with no lubrication needed. AirTAC publishes no Cv or effective-area figure for the 3V1 body.
Yes - the 3V1 family integrates 1 to 20 stations in series on a shared base, and this 6F version sits inside that range. 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. Each valve keeps its own 3/2 direct-acting function, so you can mix duties on one block.
