Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V1M5B4F
The AirTAC Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V1M5B4F 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 3V1M5B4F
Order 3V1M5B4F and you receive a four-station 3V1 manifold assembly: four 3/2-way, direct-acting, spring-return solenoid valves sharing one series base, each valve on M5 ports. Four independent feed-or-vent functions fit into a footprint far smaller than four loose bodies would need.
Each DC24V coil draws 3.0 W, and the block carries an IP65 (DIN 40050) rating with a manual override per valve for setup and fault-finding. The medium is air filtered through a 40 um or finer element, and no lubrication is needed.

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 3V1M5B4F Is Used
Welding-jig clamp bank
A spot-welding jig closes four toggle clamps around a bracket; the 4-station base mounts behind the jig, and the manual override on each valve lets the setter actuate clamps by hand during setup.
Sample-carousel position stops
A laboratory autosampler raises three position stops and one dumping gate around its sample carousel, all driven by compact single-acting cylinders from one M5 manifold block.
Tail-lift control block
A parcel van's tail-lift cabinet groups four small 3/2 functions - door-lock pin, platform latch, a tilt-alarm whistle and a purge jet - on one base instead of four scattered valves.
Is the Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V1M5B4F the Right Part?
Choose this four-station code only after matching five points: M5 or 1/8in port, thread type (PT is the standard on 3V1; G and NPT are available to order), DC24V or another coil voltage, DIN plug or flying-lead wiring, and how many stations the machine needs - the 3V1 family builds 1 to 20 on one base.
There is no published Cv for 3V1, so check flow-critical duties with us first. When one station needs more flow, substitute a 3V2 (1/8in and 1/4in, NC or NO selectable, Cv 0.18-0.19, vacuum rated) or a 3V3 (1/4in, Cv 0.62); 3V2M is the pick when packing density outranks flow; and double-acting cylinders call for the AirTAC 4V series.
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 3V1M5B4F FAQ
Each of the four valves works from 0-0.8 MPa (0-114 psi) across -20 to 70 C on air filtered to 40 um or better, protected to IP65 (DIN 40050). Coil powers in the 3V1 family run 4.5 VA (AC220V), 4.5 VA (AC110V), 5.0 VA (AC24V), 3.0 W (DC24V) and 2.5 W (DC12V); this assembly uses 3.0 W DC24V coils. AirTAC publishes no Cv or effective area for 3V1.
Each valve is an independent 3/2 unit with supply, outlet and exhaust ports. It can drive a single-acting spring-return cylinder, switch an air-blow jet, actuate a clamp, or pilot a larger valve. It cannot drive a double-acting cylinder - that needs a 5-port valve such as the AirTAC 4V - and no vacuum rating is published for the 3V1 body.
