The AirTAC Airtac 3V200 Solenoid Valve 3V220-08-A 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 is the simplest way to run a single-acting actuator: one port from the air supply, one to the cylinder, one to exhaust, and two positions that either pressurise or vent the outlet. With its 1/4in port, this 3V220-08-A is the version to reach for when the actuator or the air line is bigger than a small clamp can justify. Its AC220V coil suits panels wired for mains control voltage.
This is a genuine AirTAC component, and the family around it is broad - normally closed and normally open states, five coil voltages from DC12V to AC220V, DIN plug or flying-lead electrical entry, and manifold bases that turn a bank of valves into one plumbed, one-wired assembly. Ask us for the datasheet figures and we will confirm them rather than leave you estimating.

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.
Energise to swing a single-acting clamp onto a welded assembly; de-energise and the 3/2 valve vents the clamp so the spring lifts it clear for loading.
Raise a pneumatic stop to hold cartons at an accumulation point on a conveyor, then vent the small single-acting cylinder to let the blade drop.
Switch supply air to a paint gun on a booth line so coating starts only when the controller calls for it, with a 1/4in port feeding the gun and hose.
Of the two common port sizes on this body, this is the 1/4in one - the step up from 1/8in that suits a larger single-acting cylinder or a longer blow line. The AC220V coil must match your panel voltage; it cannot be changed by rewiring, so order a different voltage suffix if your cabinet runs 24V DC, 110V AC, 24V AC or 12V DC. NC or NO is your fail-safe decision: NC leaves the outlet vented on power loss, NO leaves it fed. This family's threads come as PT by default, with G and NPT as catalogue choices. Several of these valves can sit on one 3V manifold base so a multi-station machine shares one air feed and one wiring loom. Since this page carries no flow or pressure data, send an RFQ and we will confirm sizing and datasheet figures - or look at the documented 3V2 06 and 3V3 bodies, where those figures are published.
Confirm before you order
By asking us. Quote the cylinder bore and working pressure in an RFQ and we will confirm pressure range, flow and coil power from the AirTAC datasheet for 3V220-08-A. For a valve whose published figures you can read right now, the documented 3V2 06/08 and 3V3 bodies are the alternative.
Yes - order a 3V manifold base instead of individual valves, and a bank of 3/2 valves sits on one machined block with a single shared air feed and one wiring run. The base has no coil, state or power draw of its own, and the valves are ordered separately.
