The AirTAC Airtac 3V2M Solenoid Valve 3V2MNCAI-6F is a genuine 3-port 2-position (3/2) solenoid valve with 1/8 in ports. It either feeds its outlet or vents it to exhaust, which is what makes it the valve for single-acting cylinders, on/off air blow, clamping, vacuum switching and pilot duty.
With six normally closed 3/2 stations fed from one shared PT1/8 supply, 3V2MNCAI-6F cuts six sets of fittings, tubing and coil cables down to one air connection and one wiring run. Every AC220V coil is 7 VA, so six stations energised together draw 42 VA. Flying leads on each coil make point-to-point wiring to individual outputs straightforward.
Each valve is a direct-acting, spring-return poppet that either feeds its outlet or vents it, IP65 sealed to DIN 40050. Centralised exhaust vents all six stations through the shared base port, so a single muffler can serve the panel. Remember the state is fixed: a normally closed 3V2M cannot be turned normally open in the field.

Figures follow the official AirTAC 3V2M catalogue. Confirm coil voltage and thread (PT / NPT / G) against the product label before wiring.
| 3V2M | Body — sets the flow, the coil power and whether vacuum is rated. |
|---|---|
| 1/8 in | Port size. M5, 06 = 1/8 in, 08 = 1/4 in, 10 = 3/8 in. |
| NC | Normally closed: no air at the outlet until the coil is energised. |
| AC220V | Coil voltage. A = AC220V, B = DC24V, C = AC110V, E = AC24V, F = DC12V. |
| I | Electrical entry: I = flying lead, otherwise a DIN plug. |
| 6F | 6 stations in one assembly, centralised exhaust. |
| PT | Port thread. PT ships from stock; G and NPT are available to order. |
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.
Six fill-head vent valves on a bottling carousel, all controlled from one shared supply and wiring run.
Six gripper release points on a palletising head, each venting its single-acting cylinder through the shared port.
Six purge and blow-off jets along a paint line, fed from one filtered air header and switched station by station.
Run six stations at Cv 0.1 each, or split the work: keep high-flow functions on individual 3V2 valves (Cv 0.18 at 1/8, 0.19 at 1/4, vacuum rated) or 3V3 (Cv 0.62, 1/4), and put small low-power duties on 3V1 (3.0 W DC). Before ordering, confirm the initial state (NC here), the AC220V coil, the flying-lead entry, the six stations and the centralised exhaust, plus the thread - PT is standard, G and NPT are order options. NC cannot be converted after purchase, so order the state you actually need. Double-acting cylinder control belongs to the AirTAC 4V series.
Confirm before you order
Six 3/2 NC poppet stations, Cv 0.1 per station, 0-0.8 MPa (0-114 psi), -20 to 70 C, AC220V coils at 7 VA each (42 VA total when all energised), IP65 to DIN 40050, PT1/8 ports and 40 um filtered air.
One base gives one PT1/8 supply and one wiring run, so installation is quicker and a fault is found station by station instead of across six independent fittings and cables. The trade-off is Cv 0.1 through the base versus more flow from individual valves. Order the NC state deliberately - it cannot be changed in service.
