Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V1M5B15F
The AirTAC Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V1M5B15F 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.

About the Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V1M5B15F
The AirTAC 3V1M5B15F packs fifteen 3/2 solenoid valves onto a single M5 base. Each valve either feeds its outlet or vents it to exhaust, which is exactly what a spring-return cylinder, a blow nozzle or a pilot stage needs. The valve is direct-acting with a single solenoid and spring return, so it shifts regardless of differential pressure.
Every coil draws 3.0 W on DC24V, so the complete 15-station block pulls about 45 W - light enough for a compact control cabinet power supply. The housing is sealed to IP65 (DIN 40050), and each valve carries a manual override for installation and commissioning.

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 3V1M5B15F Is Used
Multi-lane vial drying line
Fifteen valves, one per lane, each firing a short pulse of shop air to strip rinse droplets from pharmaceutical vials before inspection.
Clamp pins on a PCB test fixture
Spring-return single-acting clamp cylinders hold circuit boards down during electrical test; the block sits directly beside the fixture.
Autosampler rinse switching
Directs a pressurized rinse line between the sampling needle and waste on a laboratory autosampler, one valve per sample channel.
Is the Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V1M5B15F the Right Part?
3V1 is the smallest, lowest-power body in AirTAC's 3V range, and it has no published Cv, so confirm flow-critical duties with us before ordering. If a circuit needs more flow, step up to 3V2 (1/8 and 1/4 ports, NC or NO selectable, Cv 0.18-0.19, vacuum rated) or to 3V3 (1/4 port, Cv 0.62); where manifold density beats raw flow, 3V2M is the alternative body to compare. To drive a double-acting cylinder you need the 5-port AirTAC 4V series instead.
Match five points before you buy: the M5 port (no thread suffix applies at this size), the DC24V coil, DIN plug electrical entry, the 15-station count of this assembly, and an operating pressure window of 0-0.8 MPa against your circuit.
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 3V1M5B15F FAQ
Operating pressure 0-0.8 MPa (0-114 psi), media temperature -20 to 70 C, protection IP65 to DIN 40050. Coil power across the range: 4.5 VA on AC220V or AC110V, 5.0 VA on AC24V, 3.0 W on DC24V, 2.5 W on DC12V - this model carries the DC24V coil. AirTAC publishes no Cv or effective area for the 3V1, so confirm any flow-critical duty with us first.
No. A 3/2 valve has one outlet that is either fed or exhausted, so it suits single-acting spring-return cylinders, air blow, clamping and pilot duty. Double-acting cylinders need two working lines - specify the AirTAC 4V series for those. Each of the fifteen valves has a manual override for setup without power.
