AirTAC 3V120-06 Solenoid Valve, 3V100 Series (3V12006C)
The AirTAC AirTAC 3V120-06 Solenoid Valve, 3V100 Series (3V12006C) is a genuine 3-port 2-position (3/2) solenoid valve with 1/8 in ports. A 3/2 valve either feeds its outlet or vents it to exhaust, so it suits single-acting cylinders, air blow, clamping, vacuum switching and pilot duty. We stock this code and confirm its published figures from the datasheet on request.

About the AirTAC 3V120-06 Solenoid Valve, 3V100 Series (3V12006C)
A 3/2 valve is the simplest powered switch in pneumatics: two positions and three ports (supply, outlet, exhaust), so the outlet is either connected to supply or vented. Use it to drive a single-acting spring-return cylinder, to gate an air blow or clamp, or to pilot a larger valve. The 3V12006C variant carries an AC110V coil with a DIN plug connection on a 1/8in PT port - a configuration often met on imported machines wired to a 110V AC control circuit.
The valve is a genuine AirTAC component. Elsewhere in the family you will find the two initial states (normally closed and normally open), the other four coil voltages (AC220V, DC24V, AC24V, DC12V), flying-lead entry, and 3V-F manifold bases carrying one to twenty stations on a shared supply. This page carries no performance figures; ask by RFQ and we will supply the datasheet values for this exact part.

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 3V120-06 Solenoid Valve, 3V100 Series (3V12006C) Is Used
Machining centre pallet clamp
A single-acting cylinder clamps the pallet and its spring unclamps it; the 110V AC control circuit switches the clamp line through this valve.
Stamping press air feed
A small feed cylinder advances parts into a stamping die on one stroke and returns on its spring, with this 3/2 valve gating the air.
Workshop blow-off station
A dedicated air jet at a maintenance bench for cleaning parts and dies - a plain on/off 3/2 duty on a 110V AC control supply.
Is the AirTAC 3V120-06 Solenoid Valve, 3V100 Series (3V12006C) the Right Part?
Check two things before ordering this code. First, the coil: it is AC110V, and a solenoid cannot be rewired to a different supply, so an AC110V control transformer is what this SKU expects - for 24V DC panels order the B code instead. Second, the entry: this is the DIN plug type, where the coil takes a socketed connector rather than fixed wires.
The 06 port is 1/8in PT, the standard thread on this family (G and NPT are catalogue options). The code sets no initial position, so choose NC - outlet vented until energised - or NO - outlet fed until energised - and tell us which. We do not hold published flow figures for this family, so have us check the valve against your actuator before ordering. If your project needs a 3-port valve with flow and coil power already documented, look at the AirTAC 3V2 (1/8in and 1/4in) and 3V3 (1/4in) bodies; if the actuator is double-acting, the 5-port AirTAC 4V series is what you need.
Confirm before you order
- ✓ Port size and thread (PT from stock; G / NPT to order)
- ✓ Initial state — NC or NO, ordered up front
- ✓ 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 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 Wiring by qualified personnel, per AirTAC documentation.
AirTAC 3V120-06 Solenoid Valve, 3V100 Series (3V12006C) FAQ
None are published on this page, and we will not guess them. Send the RFQ and we will confirm the operating pressure range, flow and coil power of the 3V12006C from the datasheet. If you need a 3-port valve with those figures already published, the AirTAC 3V2 and 3V3 bodies are documented alternatives.
No - the coil in this SKU is AC110V, and a solenoid coil must match the supply it is given; rewiring cannot change its voltage. The same valve family is catalogued with AC220V, DC24V, AC110V, AC24V and DC12V coils, so order the code whose voltage letter matches your panel.
