Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V106A9F-AM
The AirTAC Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V106A9F-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 3V106A9F-AM
The -AM suffix on the 3V106A9F-AM marks a manufacturer variant of the standard nine-station 3V1 assembly - confirm exactly what it adds from the datasheet or with our team before ordering. The core valve is unchanged: a direct-acting, single-solenoid 3/2 with spring return that feeds or vents one line, covering single-acting cylinder duty, clamps, air blow and pilot work.
Because all nine valves sit on one manifold base, a single 1/8in PT supply can serve the whole bank. The AC220V coils draw 4.5 VA each, and IP65 (DIN 40050) protection plus a built-in manual override make commissioning straightforward on live machinery.

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 3V106A9F-AM Is Used
Cooling air on printing drums
Switch small blast nozzles that keep ink drums or cutters clear of dust; the spring return kills the jet the moment the coil de-energises.
Serviceable valve rows on packaging machines
Mount nine 3/2 valves in one row above a packaging machine so a single station can be attended to without disturbing the plumbing of its neighbours.
Pilot stage on larger process valves
Use individual stations as pilot signals for bigger pneumatic valves; the 4.5 VA AC220V coils keep the pilot circuit light on the control transformer.
Is the Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V106A9F-AM the Right Part?
Compare bodies before you buy: the 3V1 is AirTAC's smallest and lowest-power 3V valve and carries no published Cv, so treat flow as unconfirmed until we check it for you. Where more flow is required, 3V2 (1/8in and 1/4in, NC or NO selectable, Cv 0.18-0.19, vacuum-rated) or 3V3 (1/4in, Cv 0.62) are the next steps, and 3V2M wins when manifold density outranks flow. Double-acting cylinders belong to the AirTAC 4V series. For this SKU, verify the 1/8in port and PT thread (G and NPT only to order), the AC220V coil, the DIN plug entry, the nine-station count, and what the -AM variant changes versus the standard 3V106A9F.
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 3V106A9F-AM FAQ
Pressure 0-0.8 MPa (0-114 psi), temperature -20 to 70 C, air filtered to 40 um or finer, IP65 (DIN 40050) protection and AC220V coils at 4.5 VA each. AirTAC states no Cv or effective area for the 3V1 body - ask us to verify flow for your circuit.
The suffix denotes a manufacturer variant of the nine-station assembly; the underlying valve remains a direct-acting spring-return 3/2 supplied in a single fixed initial state - confirm it on the datasheet. State the variant you need in your RFQ and we will quote the exact code.
