The AirTAC Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V1M5A3F 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.
The AirTAC 3V1M5A3F mounts three 3/2 solenoid valves side by side on one manifold base with M5 ports. Each station is direct-acting, single-solenoid and spring-return, with two states: it either feeds the outlet or vents it to exhaust. That makes it a natural driver for single-acting cylinders, small clamps, brief air blow or a pilot signal to a larger valve. The AC220V coils draw only 4.5 VA each, so three energised stations still sit lightly on your panel power budget.
M5 threads keep tubing runs short on compact machines, and no separate thread code applies at this port size. Every valve carries a manual override for trouble-free commissioning. This is genuine AirTAC product from the 3V1 line, supplied and documented by AirtacDistr.

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.
Switches single-acting gate cylinders on SMT feeder magazines, where three M5 valves on one base keep the electronics bay wiring short.
Energises spring-return clamp bolts on a small machining fixture, venting each line to exhaust at the end of its cycle.
Sends low-draw AC220V pilot signals to larger process valves on a water-treatment skid without loading the PLC output card.
3V1 is the smallest, lowest-power body in the AirTAC 3V range, and its flow coefficient is not published - if your duty is flow-critical, confirm sizing with us before ordering. When a single M5 port is too small, step up to 3V2 (1/8in and 1/4in ports, NC or NO selectable, Cv 0.18-0.19, vacuum rated) or 3V3 (1/4in, Cv 0.62); choose 3V2M when a dense manifold matters more than flow. This SKU is a 3-station M5 manifold with AC220V DIN-plug coils.
Before you order, confirm five points: port (M5 or 1/8in), thread on 1/8in versions (PT is the family standard; G and NPT are order options), coil voltage, electrical entry (DIN plug or flying lead) and the number of manifold stations. For a double-acting cylinder you need the 5-port AirTAC 4V series instead.

Operating pressure 0-0.8 MPa (0-114 psi), media temperature -20 to 70 C, AC220V coil power 4.5 VA (other 3V1 coils: AC110V 4.5 VA, AC24V 5.0 VA, DC24V 3.0 W, DC12V 2.5 W), protection IP65 (DIN 40050). No flow coefficient or effective area is published for the 3V1 body, so we cannot quote a Cv - confirm any flow-critical duty with us. Air must be filtered to 40 um or finer; lubrication is not required.
No. A 3/2 valve has three ports (supply, outlet, exhaust) and two states, so it feeds or vents a single line - it suits single-acting spring-return cylinders, air blow, clamping and piloting a larger valve. A double-acting cylinder needs two lines, which calls for the 5-port AirTAC 4V series. Each station also has a manual override to help during commissioning.
