Airtac 3V100 Solenoid Valve 3V120M5F
The AirTAC Airtac 3V100 Solenoid Valve 3V120M5F is a genuine 3-port 2-position (3/2) solenoid valve with M5 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 3V100 Solenoid Valve 3V120M5F
The F voltage code on 3V120M5F marks a DC12V coil, the choice for battery-fed panels and vehicle or mobile-plant electrics. As a 3/2 valve it has a supply port, an outlet and an exhaust, with two states: one feeds the outlet, the other vents it. That is the action a small single-acting cylinder or an on/off air jet asks for, and the M5 port keeps the whole circuit compact.
This is a genuine AirTAC part on the 3V120 body with M5 port and DIN plug entry, PT thread as the family standard and G or NPT as catalogue options. Elsewhere in the range you will find NC and NO states, AC220V, AC110V, AC24V and DC24V coils, flying-lead entry, and 3V-F manifold bases that carry several valves on one shared supply. No pressure, flow or coil-power figures appear on this page; tell us the job and we will confirm them from the datasheet.

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 3V100 Solenoid Valve 3V120M5F Is Used
Conveyor reject pusher
Drives a small single-acting pusher that nudges off-spec cartons off a conveyor.
Bench air tool supply
Turns a bench-mounted pneumatic tool or mini press on and off from a 12-volt control circuit.
Latch on mobile plant
Operates a small spring-return latch or gate cylinder fed from a vehicle 12-volt system.
Is the Airtac 3V100 Solenoid Valve 3V120M5F the Right Part?
Match the coil to the supply first: this is the DC12V version, meant for battery or vehicle-grade 12-volt panels, and no wiring change will convert it - a different voltage is a different order code. The M5 thread is the smallest port the family offers, below 1/8in, 1/4in and 3/8in, which suits it to miniature single-acting cylinders and short, light blow lines. Choose NC when the outlet must go dead and vent on power loss, NO when it must stay fed; the code shown does not say which, so name your choice on the order. We do not hold published flow figures for the 3V1 family, so let us confirm sizing against your actuator before you commit. Where a fully documented 3-port valve is wanted, the AirTAC 3V2 (1/8in and 1/4in) and 3V3 (1/4in) bodies have published flow and coil-power data; a double-acting cylinder needs the AirTAC 4V series instead.
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 3V100 Solenoid Valve 3V120M5F FAQ
We can - on request, not on this page. Send the RFQ with your actuator or line details and we will return the datasheet values for pressure, flow and coil power. If published figures must sit on the page you buy from, look at the AirTAC 3V2 and 3V3 bodies, whose flow and coil-power data are documented.
Yes - the 3V-F manifold bases are machined blocks that carry several 3/2 valves on one shared air supply and one wiring run, which cuts fittings and simplifies fault-finding. Valves are ordered separately from the base. This 3V120M5F is the individual-valve version.
