Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V106C2F
The AirTAC Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V106C2F 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 3V106C2F
3V106C2F is a two-station 3V1 manifold: two direct-acting 3/2 solenoid valves share one base, and each has three ports (supply, outlet, exhaust) with two states, so it feeds or vents one line at a time. That makes it the right switch for single-acting cylinders, air blow, clamps and pilot lines, and the spring returns every valve when power drops.
The AC110V coils draw just 4.5 VA each on DIN plug connections, the housing meets IP65 (DIN 40050), and a manual override on each station helps during installation and commissioning. Every valve we supply is a genuine AirTAC part.

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 3V106C2F Is Used
Autosampler probe lift
A spring-return probe cylinder on a compact lab autosampler needs exactly one feed-or-vent valve; the two-station base covers probe and rinse positions.
PCB blow-off nozzle
Feed the nozzle while the board is in place and vent it when it moves on - a 3/2 spring-return valve is the classic blow-off switch on electronics benches.
Bottling-line pilot signal
Use one station to pilot a larger process valve on a bottling carousel, keeping the whole pilot circuit on a single compact base.
Is the Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V106C2F the Right Part?
3V1 is the smallest, lowest-power body in AirTAC's 3V range, and no flow coefficient is published for it, so confirm any flow-critical duty with us before ordering. If a circuit needs more air, step 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). Where manifold density matters more than flow, 3V2M is the alternative.
Before ordering, match five points: port (M5 or 1/8in), thread (PT is the standard 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. For a double-acting cylinder you need the 5-port AirTAC 4V series instead.
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 3V106C2F FAQ
Operating pressure 0-0.8 MPa (0-114 psi), medium temperature -20 to 70 C, air filtered through a 40 um or finer element, protection IP65 (DIN 40050). Each AC110V coil draws 4.5 VA; DC24V would be 3.0 W and DC12V 2.5 W. No Cv or effective area is published for the 3V1 body, so confirm flow-critical duties with us.
Each valve is an independent 3/2 unit with its own AC110V DIN plug connection, spring return and manual override, while the shared base joins the supply. Accessories 3V1-P30, 3V1-P31 and 3V1-P32 cover connecting-screw bases, seals and bracket mounting. The valve drives single-acting cylinders, air blow or pilot duty, but never a double-acting cylinder - that needs a 5-port 4V valve.
