AirTAC 3V120-06 Solenoid Valve, 3V100 Series (3V12006FI)
The AirTAC AirTAC 3V120-06 Solenoid Valve, 3V100 Series (3V12006FI) 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 (3V12006FI)
The I at the end of 3V12006FI is the wiring story: this 3/2 solenoid valve arrives with a flying lead rather than a DIN plug socket, so the coil wires straight to your terminals. Functionally it is normally closed with 1/8in PT ports and a DC12V coil - outlet dead and vented at rest, fed while the coil is held, vented again on power loss.
This is a genuine AirTAC 3V120. Should a DIN plug suit the panel better, the same valve exists without the lead; the family also spans the normally open state, AC220V, DC24V, AC110V and AC24V coils, and 3V-F manifold bases. Because we publish no performance data for this family, the datasheet figures travel with our quotation when you raise an RFQ.

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 (3V12006FI) Is Used
Cabinet retrofit wiring
Run the pre-wired flying lead straight to terminal rails in a control cabinet, avoiding a DIN connector that will not fit behind an existing wiring loom.
Conveyor stopper cylinder
Energise to raise a pop-up stopper on a parcel conveyor; power off vents the single-acting cylinder and the spring drops it again.
Laboratory test station
Switch a small cylinder or a vacuum generator on a lab bench fed from a 12V DC supply, where tidy lead-wired solenoids are the norm.
Is the AirTAC 3V120-06 Solenoid Valve, 3V100 Series (3V12006FI) the Right Part?
Wiring comes first on this SKU: the flying lead goes straight onto terminal rails, while the DIN-plug version suits panels that prefer a plug-in connector. Beyond that the same choices apply - NC (as coded) versus NO for power-loss behaviour, the 1/8in PT port for small single-acting cylinders and blow jets, a coil voltage that must equal the supply, and 3V-F bases once several valves share a machine.
Flow data for this family is not in our hands, so send the actuator details with your RFQ and we will confirm sizing from the datasheet. If published flow and coil power are a precondition of your order, the documented 3V2 and 3V3 bodies are the pages to read; a double-acting cylinder instead calls for the AirTAC 4V series.
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 (3V12006FI) FAQ
This page carries configuration only - state, port, voltage and entry. Pressure, flow, coil power and response time come from the datasheet, and we will send them with a quotation when you raise an RFQ. Buyers who need published flow figures straight away are directed to the 3V2 and 3V3 bodies, which are fully documented.
Besides individual valves like this one, the family includes 3V-F manifold bases that carry several valves on one shared air supply and one wiring loom, which simplifies both piping and fault-finding. The valves themselves are ordered separately and mounted onto the base.
