The AirTAC Airtac 3V2M-F Base 3V2M9F is a genuine 3V2M manifold base for 9 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.
The 3V2M9F is a nine-station manifold base from the AirTAC 3V2M base-mounted body system. It is a machined block only: no coil, no solenoid, no initial state and no electrical rating sit in the base itself. Nine 3V2M valve bodies screw onto it to build one nine-valve assembly that shares a single air supply and one wiring run, which makes fault-finding faster than chasing nine separate valves.
This base uses centralised exhaust, so all nine stations vent through one common port instead of each needing its own outlet - tidier pipework on dense panels. Threads are PT (the standard for 3V2M; G and NPT are order options). Valve bodies in NC or NO, with the voltage and entry you need, are ordered separately.

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 dedicated fixture with nine spring-return clamps can take one 3V2M9F block: nine NC valve bodies, one shared supply, one wiring run, and each clamp fed or vented by its own 3/2 station.
On a bottle or tray line with nine air nozzles that must blow only while energised, the base holds nine NO or NC valves centrally, with all exhausts merged into one common vent.
A rotary indexing table needing nine pilot signals can group its solenoid pilots on the 3V2M9F, so a technician checks wiring and supply at one block instead of nine scattered valves.
Match five points when ordering valves for this base: initial state (NC or NO - once bought it cannot be converted, so order the state you need up front), coil voltage, electrical entry (DIN plug or flying lead), plus this base's own 9-station count and centralised exhaust. Remember the flow trade-off: a valve on the 3V2M base is capped at Cv 0.1 because air passes through the base passages. If any one station needs more flow, mount an individual 3V2 there instead (Cv 0.18 at 1/8 in, 0.19 at 1/4 in, and vacuum-rated) or step to 3V3 at Cv 0.62 for the highest flow in the 3V range; 3V1 at 3.0 W DC suits small low-power duties. If any actuator is double-acting, you need a 5-port AirTAC 4V valve, not a 3/2 valve on this base.
Confirm before you order
The 3V2M9F includes only the nine-station manifold base with PT threads and centralised exhaust - valve bodies and coils are ordered separately. The valve bodies that mount on it are 3/2 direct-acting spring-return units with Cv 0.1, 0-0.8 MPa pressure range, -20 to 70 C operation, AC 7 VA / DC 7.0 W coil power and IP65 protection. The base itself carries no electrical rating. Confirm current figures from the datasheet or via RFQ.
Centralised exhaust merges all nine stations into one shared vent port, which keeps piping short and the panel clean - ideal where blow-off noise and oil mist can be managed at a single point. Choose the 3V2M9FD independent-exhaust version only when individual stations must vent separately, for example to capture exhaust at each cylinder or prevent cross-exhaust between functions. Both bases carry the same valves ordered separately; the difference is purely how exhaust air is routed.
