Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V106A6F-AM
The AirTAC Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V106A6F-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 3V106A6F-AM
The AirTAC 3V106A6F-AM is a six-station manifold assembly of 3/2 direct-acting solenoid valves on a single 1/8in PT base. Each valve feeds or vents one line, so the bank drives single-acting spring-return cylinders, clamps, air-blow nozzles or pilots a larger valve. The -AM suffix denotes a catalogue option; confirm its exact content on the datasheet before ordering.
The AC220V coil draws 4.5 VA and is IP65 rated to DIN 40050, and each station carries a manual override for commissioning. Valves can be integrated in series from one to twenty stations, so this six-way format saves panel drilling and fittings. Air must be filtered through a 40 um or finer element; lubrication is not required. AirTAC 3V1 is supplied in a single fixed initial state - confirm 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-AM Is Used
Tray-loader clamping fingers
Cycles the spring-return clamping fingers that index trays on a small pharmaceutical loader, one station per actuator, exhausting instantly on release.
Bench-top leak test rig
Switches the fill-and-vent line of a laboratory leak-test fixture, venting the part under test the moment the cycle ends.
Welding jig clamps
Drives the six single-acting clamp cylinders on a welding jig, dropping every clamp to the safe position whenever coil power is cut.
Is the Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V106A6F-AM the Right Part?
3V1 is the smallest, lowest-power body in the AirTAC 3V range, but no Cv or effective area is published for it, so flow-critical duties should be confirmed with us before you commit. If a circuit needs more flow, step up to 3V2 (1/8in and 1/4in, NC or NO selectable, Cv 0.18-0.19, and rated for vacuum) or to 3V3 (1/4in, Cv 0.62). When a dense manifold matters more than flow, 3V2M is the alternative to compare. A double-acting cylinder needs a 5-port valve - send that requirement to the AirTAC 4V series.
Match five points to your build: port (M5 or 1/8in), thread (PT is the standard thread on this family; G and NPT are catalogue options to order), coil voltage, electrical entry (DIN plug or flying lead), and individual valve versus manifold station count. Accessories: 3V1-P30 base set, 3V1-P31 O-ring and long screws, 3V1-P32 bracket set.
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.
