Airtac 3V2M-F Base 3V2M6FD
The AirTAC Airtac 3V2M-F Base 3V2M6FD is a genuine 3V2M manifold base for 6 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.
- Valve type3/2-way (3-port, 2-position)
- Port size1/8 in
- Stations6
- Flow (Cv)0.1
- Series3V2M
About the Airtac 3V2M-F Base 3V2M6FD
The 3V2M6FD gives a six-circuit machine the best of both plumbing styles: a single shared PT1/8 supply inlet, but six separate exhaust outlets so every station can be vented, silenced or ducted on its own terms. It is the natural choice where dust, oil mist or noise from one circuit must not be pushed back through a common vent.
The manifold block is purely mechanical - no coil, no voltage and no IP class belong to it. The six 3/2 solenoid valves that fill the stations are ordered separately, each with its own chosen state, coil and entry, and all of them share the one wiring run that a base-mounted layout provides.

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 3V2M-F Base 3V2M6FD Is Used
Tailgate and door locks on delivery vehicles
Pneumatic locks and chocks on a truck body can each take a valve on this base, venting at their own ports so road dirt at one vent does not affect the rest.
Vise and stop clamps on a weld cell bench
Six spring-return clamps positioning parts for welding are fed from one inlet here, with each clamp circuit exhausting locally for quick, quiet release.
Pilot switching on a calibration test bench
Bench setups that switch air to gauges or reference devices station by station benefit from segregated exhausts, keeping one test's vented air away from the next.
Is the Airtac 3V2M-F Base 3V2M6FD the Right Part?
Before ordering, settle the per-valve choices: NC or NO initial state (unchangeable once purchased), coil voltage, DIN plug versus flying-lead lead-out, plus the thread. PT1/8 is this family's standard; G and NPT versions exist as catalogue options to order - availability is confirmed via RFQ, not held as stock.
With six stations, worst-case coil load matters: six DC24V coils at 7.0 W total roughly 42 W, near 1.75 A at 24 V, so size the supply for all-on. Flow per valve is Cv 0.1 through the base; for a high-flow circuit use a standalone 3V2 (Cv 0.18, 1/8 in, vacuum-rated) or 3V3 (Cv 0.62, 1/4 in), and the 3.0 W DC 3V1 where power is tight. For double-acting cylinders, move to the AirTAC 4V series.
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 Stay within 0-0.8 MPa (0-114 psi) operating pressure.
- check Use the manual override to test before powering up.
- check Leave the exhaust port clear, or fit a silencer.
- check Blank any unused station on the base before pressurising.
- check Wiring by qualified personnel, per AirTAC documentation.
Airtac 3V2M-F Base 3V2M6FD FAQ
Six stations, one shared PT1/8 supply, one independent exhaust outlet per station. Fitted valves are 3/2 direct-acting with spring return, rated 0-0.8 MPa over -20 to 70 C, Cv 0.1 each, coils of 7 VA (AC) or 7.0 W (DC), and IP65 sealing - all of these belong to the valves, not to the bare manifold.
Independent exhausts let you fit individual mufflers, duct air away from products or operators, and stop a blocked or noisy station from affecting its neighbours. If none of that matters, the centralised-exhaust 3V2M6F is simpler to plumb. In both cases, valves are ordered separately and their NC or NO state is fixed at order time - it cannot be converted later.
