The AirTAC Airtac 3V2 Solenoid Valve 3V206NCC is a genuine 3-port 2-position (3/2) solenoid valve with 1/8 in 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.
The 3V206NCC is a normally closed 3/2 valve on AirTAC's coaxial poppet body with a 1/8 inch PT port. De-energised, the spring holds supply shut off from the outlet and vents it; energise the AC110V coil and the line is fed. It runs on AC power at 7 VA, so control panels built around 110V mains can switch it directly.
The poppet seat gives clean shut-off at Cv 0.18 (3.2 mm2 effective area per port), and unlike the 3V1 or 3V2M, this body is rated for negative-pressure service from -102.2 kPa to 0.1 MPa. Manual override is fitted for commissioning. Genuine AirTAC product, quoted on request.

Figures follow the official AirTAC 3V2 catalogue. Confirm coil voltage and thread (PT / NPT / G) against the product label before wiring.
| 3V2 | Body — sets the flow, the coil power and whether vacuum is rated. |
|---|---|
| 1/8 in | Port size. M5, 06 = 1/8 in, 08 = 1/4 in, 10 = 3/8 in. |
| NC | Normally closed: no air at the outlet until the coil is energised. |
| AC110V | Coil voltage. A = AC220V, B = DC24V, C = AC110V, E = AC24V, F = DC12V. |

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.
Older packaging and assembly machines wired for 110V solenoids take this valve without an interposing relay; the 7 VA AC coil drops straight onto an existing fused output.
A compact suction cup on a benchtop testing rig switches vacuum lines within the -102.2 kPa to 0.1 MPa rating, something the 3V1 and 3V2M bodies cannot do.
Normally closed feed to a spring-return swing clamp on a fixture: no power means the clamp exhausts and cannot hold air at the tool.
Match five things before ordering: 1/8 inch port with PT thread (G and NPT are catalogue options to order), normally closed initial state, AC110V coil, DIN plug entry, and whether any duty sits on the vacuum side. If your panel is 220V or 24V instead, pick the matching voltage code in the same 3V2 family.
Size down to 3V1 when the job is small and DC24V coil draw of 3.0 W matters more than this unit's 7 VA; step up to 3V3 (1/4 inch, Cv 0.62, also vacuum-rated) when you need far more flow. For a double-acting cylinder you need a 5-port AirTAC 4V valve, not this 3/2.
Confirm before you order
Per-port flow: 3V206 (1/8in) is 3.2 mm2 effective area, Cv 0.18; 3V208 (1/4in) is 3.4 mm2, Cv 0.19. Operating pressure is 0-0.8 MPa (0-114 psi), with vacuum service rated -102.2 kPa to 0.1 MPa. Temperature range is -20 to 70 C. Coil power is 7 VA on AC and 7.0 W on DC. Coil protection is IP65 (DIN 40050).
No. A 3/2 valve has three ports and either feeds the outlet or vents it, which suits single-acting spring-return cylinders, blow-off, clamps, vacuum circuits and pilot duty. A double-acting cylinder needs pressurisation and exhaust at both ends, so specify the AirTAC 4V 5-port series instead.
