The AirTAC Airtac 3V2M-F Base 3V2M13F is a genuine 3V2M manifold base for 13 stations on one shared air supply. A base is a machined block: it carries no coil and no solenoid, so the valves that sit on it are ordered separately.
Thirteen 3/2 valves, one air inlet, one exhaust line - that is what the 3V2M13F block delivers. As a manifold base it contains no coil, solenoid, voltage or initial state, and it carries no IP rating; those are properties of the 3V2M valve bodies ordered separately and seated onto it. Thirteen stations share a unified supply, and all exhaust air leaves through a single centralised port.
Single-point exhaust simplifies piping and silencing in compact cabinets, and the unified supply means stations can be added, mixed or swapped without replumbing the whole machine. Keep the density trade-off in mind: because every flow path passes through the block, each valve position is Cv 0.1 rather than the higher figure of a free-standing 3V2.

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.
Thirteen divert or stopper cylinders along a parcel-sorting conveyor each take a valve position on this base, sharing one exhaust run above the line.
A stamping die with thirteen spring-return ejector or knockout pins can fire each from its own 3V2M valve seated on this one block.
Thirteen micro-dosing or purge valves around a rotary filler are plumbed to a unified supply, so tuning and venting happen at one centralised port.
Choose the 3V2M13F when thirteen valve positions are wanted on one block and a common exhaust line is fine. Size each circuit first: Cv 0.1 per valve suits clamping, blow-off and pilot duty. A station that must breathe harder is better served by an individual 3V2 (Cv 0.18 at 1/8 inch, 0.19 at 1/4 inch, vacuum-rated) or a 3V3 (Cv 0.62, 1/4 inch, vacuum-rated), while light-duty points can drop to 3V1 at 3.0 W DC. Thirteen DC coils at 7.0 W give a 91 W worst case, about 3.8 A at 24 V - check your supply.
Valves are ordered separately, so lock in NC or NO before purchase; it cannot be converted afterwards, and flipping the dedicated base gasket achieves nothing. Then set voltage (A/B/C/E/F), entry (DIN plug or I flying lead) and thread (PT standard; G and NPT to order). A double-acting cylinder needs the 5-port 4V series instead.
Confirm before you order
Mounted 3V2M valves are 3/2, direct-acting, single solenoid with spring return: Cv 0.1, 0-0.8 MPa (0-114 psi), -20 to 70 C, AC 7 VA / DC 7.0 W per coil, IP65 (DIN 40050), PT1/8 ports, air filtered to 40 um or finer, manual override fitted. The base block itself has no electrical rating.
Yes - station positions mix freely, so NC and NO bodies, different voltages and either DIN plug or flying-lead entries can share one 3V2M13F. Just fix each valve's state when ordering: NC and NO cannot be converted after purchase, and the base gasket cannot be flipped to swap it.
