The AirTAC Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V1M5A2F is a genuine 3-port 2-position (3/2) solenoid valve with M5 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.
3V1M5A2F puts two 3/2 direct-acting valves on one shared base: M5 ports, a single solenoid with spring return on each position, and AC220V coils at 4.5 VA apiece. Each position still feeds or vents its own line independently.
One base means one mounting, one common air supply and fewer joints to seal, which is exactly what small control panels need when an M5 fitting is the only one that fits. Sealing is IP65 (DIN 40050), the air must be filtered to 40 um or finer, and every position carries a manual override.

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.
Runs two independent single-acting clamp and eject cylinders on one modular station, sharing a single M5 series base.
Feeds and vents the small latch cylinders that secure a utility-vehicle tailgate, working from -20 to 70 C in all seasons.
Uses one position to fill a test part and the second to vent it, cycling a bench leak-test rig quickly between parts.
With two positions on one base, size for the pair: two AC220V coils at 4.5 VA each, so check your transformer headroom if you plan to stack further stations, since the system runs from 1 to 20. Flow still needs care because the 3V1 has no published Cv - confirm critical duties with us. More flow means the 3V2 (1/8 and 1/4 ports, NC or NO selectable, Cv 0.18-0.19, vacuum rated) or the 3V3 (1/4, Cv 0.62); tighter manifold packing, the 3V2M. A double-acting cylinder needs a 5-port valve from the AirTAC 4V series.
Confirm five things: port (M5 or 1/8), thread (PT standard; G and NPT are catalogue options), coil voltage, DIN plug versus flying lead, and whether this 2F assembly or a different station count matches your machine.
Confirm before you order
Pressure 0-0.8 MPa, media temperature -20 to 70 C, IP65 (DIN 40050) protection, and two AC220V coils at 4.5 VA each (family options: AC110V 4.5 VA, AC24V 5.0 VA, DC24V 3.0 W, DC12V 2.5 W). The 3V1 body has no published Cv, so flow-critical sizing should be confirmed with us.
The 3V1 manifold system is offered from 1 to 20 stations in series, so a 2F assembly can grow alongside your machine. Order further 3V1 positions plus the matching accessories - the 3V1-P30 connecting-screw base set, 3V1-P31 O-ring and long screws, or the 3V1-P32 mounting bracket set.
