The AirTAC AirTAC 3V210-08 Solenoid Valve, 3V200 Series (3V21008NCA-W) is a genuine 3-port 2-position (3/2) solenoid valve with 1/4 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.
A 3/2 valve makes a single decision about one outlet: feed it, or dump it to exhaust. This 3V21008NCA-W is set up normally closed, so air stays shut off at the outlet until the AC220V coil is powered, and vents the moment power is removed. The 1/4in PT port is the middle of the family's port ladder and suits a larger single-acting actuator than the 1/8in step.
AirTAC manufactures this valve, and it is one configuration among many: the family offers NC and NO states, five coil voltages, DIN plug or flying-lead entry, and 3V-F manifold bases where several valves share one supply. We hold no flow, pressure or coil-power figures for this kit, so ask us to confirm them from the manufacturer datasheet with your RFQ.

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.
A small press with an internal return spring needs one air line: this valve feeds it on demand and exhausts it so the ram retracts under spring force.
Shift a sorting gate with a single-acting cylinder - one 3/2 valve decides gate position and dumps the air when the gate is spring-returned.
Cycle a test fixture's spring-return ram from a mains-switched 220V circuit, with the 1/4in port matching the rig's pneumatic tubing.
This 1/4in port is the sensible pick when your single-acting cylinder or blow line has outgrown 1/8in: each port step up the ladder (M5, 1/8in, 1/4in, 3/8in) matches a larger actuator. The NC state vents the outlet whenever power is removed - the behaviour you want for fail-safe stopping. The coil is fixed at AC220V at order time, so check the panel supply before you buy, and note the DIN plug entry; flying leads are the alternative in this family. Sizing is the one gap: we cannot quote a flow figure for this kit, so send the actuator details with your RFQ and we will confirm fit from the datasheet - or step to the fully specified AirTAC 3V2 and 3V3 bodies, whose published flow and coil-power figures cover 1/8in and 1/4in ports. Driving a double-acting cylinder? That is a 4V five-port job, not this.
Confirm before you order
Not on this page. Ask us with your RFQ and we will read the figures straight from the AirTAC datasheet for you. Where a fully documented alternative is wanted, the 3V2 (1/8in and 1/4in) and 3V3 (1/4in) bodies publish flow and coil power.
Normally closed (this valve) stops air at the outlet when de-energised, which suits clamps and blow lines that must shut off on power loss. Normally open keeps the outlet fed until energised - pick it where flow must persist through a power failure. Both states exist across this family.
