Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V106B2F-AM
The AirTAC Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V106B2F-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 3V106B2F-AM
The AirTAC 3V106B2F-AM is the two-station 3V1 assembly with a factory option suffix: a pair of direct-acting 3/2 valves on one series base, each single-solenoid and spring-return, each able to feed or vent its own line for single-acting actuators, clamps or pilot duty.
Standard 3V1 figures cover the hardware: DC24V coils at 3.0 W, IP65 (DIN 40050) protection and 1/8in PT ports. What the -AM tail adds is not defined in the public ordering code, so treat it as a question for our engineers rather than a guess.

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 3V106B2F-AM Is Used
Harness cutting jaw
Closes a single-acting cutting jaw on a wire-harness machine, then vents the line so the spring opens the jaw ready for the next cut.
Packing bench hold-down
Clamps each carton against a packing template on an e-commerce bench, one valve running the clamp and the second kept for a later expansion station.
Guard-door lock vent
Exhausts a small pneumatic lock cylinder when a machine guard opens, using the spring-return state so the line dumps even without coil power.
Is the Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V106B2F-AM the Right Part?
Treat this SKU as a standard 3V106B2F plus an open question. The base checklist stays the same: M5 or 1/8in port, thread (PT standard, G or NPT to order), DC24V coil, DIN plug entry, and the two-station count. Add one step - send us the full -AM code so we confirm the option against the AirTAC datasheet before you order. Flow needs checking too, since no Cv is published for 3V1.
If any circuit outgrows this body, the ladder goes up to 3V2 (1/8in and 1/4in, NC or NO selectable, Cv 0.18-0.19, vacuum rated) or 3V3 (1/4in, Cv 0.62), with 3V2M for dense manifolding; double-acting cylinders belong on the 5-port AirTAC 4V series.
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 3V106B2F-AM FAQ
Expect 0-0.8 MPa (0-114 psi), -20 to 70 C and air filtered to 40 um or finer. The two DC24V coils draw 3.0 W each under IP65 (DIN 40050) covers. Function: direct-acting 3/2, single solenoid, spring return. One gap: no Cv or effective area is published for 3V1, and the -AM option itself needs datasheet confirmation.
The -AM tail is not part of the standard 3V1 ordering code, so confirm its exact meaning with us against the AirTAC datasheet before ordering. The base code is clear though: DC24V coils seated in DIN plug sockets on a 2-station 1/8in PT base. A flying-lead version would carry an I after the voltage letter instead.
