Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V1M5B6F
The AirTAC Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V1M5B6F 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 3V1M5B6F
The 3V1M5B6F bundles six AirTAC 3V1 valve positions onto a single manifold, so one M5 supply line replaces six individually plumbed valves. Each 3/2 position is direct-acting with spring return and carries a 3.0 W DC24V coil under a DIN plug.
The working range is 0-0.8 MPa with a -20 to 70 C fluid and ambient window, and the coil housings are rated IP65 (DIN 40050). Every station feeds its own line or vents it to exhaust, which is exactly what small single-acting actuators and pilot circuits need.

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 3V1M5B6F Is Used
Screw-presenter gate
A station gates a small single-acting cylinder that indexes screws into the feed track of an assembly cell, dropping each fastener only when the cycle calls for it.
Sample vial stopper press
In a lab automation line, individual stations drive spring-return rams that press stoppers onto sample vials, one lane per station, all fed from one M5 supply.
Cooling puff at a vision station
A timed burst of shop air clears dust from a camera lens before each inspection shot, vented safely to exhaust through the spring-return 3/2 position.
Is the Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V1M5B6F the Right Part?
Because AirTAC publishes no Cv for 3V1, treat this as a small-port, low-power valve and confirm any flow-sensitive duty with us. When M5 flow is not enough, move up to 3V2, which adds 1/8in and 1/4in ports, an NC/NO choice, Cv 0.18-0.19 and a vacuum rating, or to the 1/4in 3V3 at Cv 0.62. For the tightest manifold packing, 3V2M trades flow for density. A double-acting cylinder calls for a 5-port AirTAC 4V valve instead.
Your five checks: port size (M5 here, with no thread variant at this size), coil voltage (DC24V on this SKU), electrical entry (DIN plug), station count (six on this assembly), and the mounting arrangement. Base sets 3V1-P30, the 3V1-P31 O-ring and screw kit and the 3V1-P32 bracket set are the matching accessories.
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 3V1M5B6F FAQ
Pressure range 0-0.8 MPa (0-114 psi), temperature -20 to 70 C, IP65 (DIN 40050) coils. Coil ratings across the family: AC220V 4.5 VA, AC110V 4.5 VA, AC24V 5.0 VA, DC24V 3.0 W, DC12V 2.5 W; this assembly runs the 3.0 W DC24V coil. AirTAC publishes no Cv or effective area for 3V1, so confirm flow-critical duties with us.
One shared M5 base replaces six individual bodies, cutting fittings, tubing and panel drilling, and AirTAC builds the 3V1 family as 1 to 20 stations in series. Each position still keeps its own 3.0 W DC24V DIN-plug coil and manual override, and spring return vents the line whenever the coil drops out.
