Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V106BI11F
The AirTAC Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V106BI11F 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 3V106BI11F
3V106BI11F is an 11-station manifold assembly of AirTAC 3V1 direct-acting 3/2 solenoid valves. Each PT1/8-ported position feeds or vents a single line, so it drives single-acting cylinders, air-blow jets, clamps or pilots a larger valve, then springs back to its fixed initial state when power drops. Every station runs on a DC24V coil drawing only 3.0 W.
Instead of eleven separate bodies and eleven wiring runs, the valves share one common base, and each coil terminates in a pre-wired flying lead rather than a DIN socket, which keeps cabinet looms short. Coils meet IP65 (DIN 40050) and a manual override is fitted for commissioning. Supply air must be filtered to 40 um or finer; lubrication is not required.

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 3V106BI11F Is Used
Automotive fixture clamping
Cycles single-acting swing clamps on an engine-block machining fixture, one station per clamp, the spring return venting the line between cycles.
SMT pick-head blow-off
Fires short air pulses through a nozzle to clear paste residue from PCB placement heads, with direct-acting response and no pilot air needed.
Pilot for a large process valve
Sends an air pilot signal to a bigger diaphragm valve on a water-treatment skid, one manifold station reserved per pilot point.
Is the Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V106BI11F the Right Part?
3V1 is the smallest and lowest-power body in the AirTAC 3V range, and its flow coefficient is not published - so for flow-critical duties confirm the sizing with us before ordering. If you need more flow, step up to 3V2 (1/8 or 1/4 ports, NC or NO selectable, Cv 0.18-0.19, vacuum rated) or 3V3 (1/4 port, Cv 0.62). Where manifold density matters more than flow, 3V2M is the alternative; a double-acting cylinder, however, needs the 5-port AirTAC 4V series.
Before ordering, match five points: port (M5 or 1/8); thread (PT is standard on this family, with G and NPT as order options); coil voltage; electrical entry (DIN plug or flying lead); and the number of manifold stations, built from 1 to 20.
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 3V106BI11F FAQ
Operating pressure 0-0.8 MPa (0-114 psi), media temperature -20 to 70 C, DC24V coil power 3.0 W, protection IP65 (DIN 40050), 11 stations on a common base with PT1/8 ports. A flow coefficient (Cv) is not published for the 3V1 body, so confirm flow-critical sizing with us. Elsewhere in the family: AC220V 4.5 VA, AC110V 4.5 VA, AC24V 5.0 VA, DC12V 2.5 W.
Each station is a 3/2 valve with three ports (supply, outlet, exhaust) and two states: it either feeds the outlet or vents it. That suits single-acting spring-return cylinders, air blow, clamping and piloting a larger valve. It will not drive a double-acting cylinder, which requires a 5-port valve such as the AirTAC 4V series. The initial state is a single fixed condition - confirm it on the datasheet.
