Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V1M5F11F
The AirTAC Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V1M5F11F 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 3V1M5F11F
With eleven 3/2 stations on one manifold base, the 3V1M5F11F turns a crowded control panel into a single compact block. Each M5 valve is direct acting, single-solenoid and spring return, so it either supplies its outlet or exhausts it - the classic pattern for single-acting cylinders, clamping, blow-off and pilot duty. Coils are DC12V at 2.5 W with DIN plug entry, and the body is protected to IP65 (DIN 40050).
Manual overrides on all eleven stations simplify setup. Like every 3V1, this valve is supplied in one fixed initial state rather than an NC/NO option - confirm the state on the datasheet before wiring it into an interlock.

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 3V1M5F11F Is Used
Vial lane diverter
Eleven valves steer small vials between lanes on a bottling conveyor, each M5 outlet driving its own spring-return diverter cylinder.
Lab auto-sampler
In an analytical autosampler, the M5 valves switch purge air and lift a single-acting sample probe between vial positions.
AGV gripper array
A battery-driven automated guided vehicle fires the jaws of a multi-part picker from this 11-station block; the 2.5 W DC12V coils spare the on-board battery.
Is the Airtac 3V1 Solenoid Valve 3V1M5F11F the Right Part?
Start by confirming the five order points: port (M5 on this SKU; the 1/8" 06 version is the one that offers PT as standard with G or NPT to order), coil voltage, electrical entry, individual valve or manifold station count, and the fixed initial state. Then sanity-check the size: 3V1 is the smallest, lowest-power body in the 3V family and carries no published Cv, so anything flow-critical should be verified with us.
Where M5 ports run out of capacity, the 3V2 series steps up to 1/8" and 1/4" with Cv 0.18-0.19 plus NC/NO selectability and a vacuum rating, and 3V3 reaches Cv 0.62 at 1/4". If your priority is packing many valves into one block rather than raw flow, 3V2M is worth a look. Double-acting cylinders need the 5-port AirTAC 4V range, not this 3-port valve.
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 3V1M5F11F FAQ
Pressure range 0-0.8 MPa (0-114 psi), temperature -20 to 70 C, IP65 (DIN 40050) sealing, and coil power for your voltage: AC220V or AC110V 4.5 VA, AC24V 5.0 VA, DC24V 3.0 W, DC12V 2.5 W. This eleven-station assembly uses the 2.5 W DC12V coil. Filtration of 40 um or finer is required. One gap to know: AirTAC publishes no Cv for 3V1.
No. A 3/2 valve has three ports and two states - it either feeds the outlet or vents it - so it matches single-acting (spring-return) cylinders, clamps, air blow nozzles and pilot stages only. A double-acting cylinder needs two switched lines, which is the job of a 5-port valve such as the AirTAC 4V series.
