Airtac 3V2M Solenoid Valve 3V2MNCE-17F
The AirTAC Airtac 3V2M Solenoid Valve 3V2MNCE-17F 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.

About the Airtac 3V2M Solenoid Valve 3V2MNCE-17F
The 3V2MNCE-17F arrives as a working block: seventeen normally closed 3/2 valve bodies seated on a single 3V2M manifold base, sharing one PT1/8 supply and one centralised exhaust route. Each valve is direct-acting with a spring return and a coaxial shut-off poppet, so every station vents its own outlet to exhaust the instant its coil is de-energised - useful where a dropped clamp or a stuck blow-off nozzle must release the moment power fails.
The coils run on AC24V at 7 VA each. Seventeen stations energised together draw roughly 119 VA, so the control transformer behind this assembly should be sized for that full figure, not for a single valve. Wiring lands on standard DIN plug sockets, and because every body sits on the same base, tracing a faulty station means swapping one valve rather than re-piping a circuit. Manual overrides on each body make it straightforward to jog individual stations during commissioning.

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 Solenoid Valve 3V2MNCE-17F Is Used
Textile knitting machine jet banks
A circular knitting frame uses dozens of individually pulsed air jets to clear lint from needle tracks; seventeen NC stations on one base let the controller pulse each jet in turn while the shared manifold keeps the pneumatic plumbing to a single PT1/8 feed.
Carton erector clamp nest
A packaging line erects corrugated blanks on a nest of spring-return clamping fingers; each finger needs feed-or-vent behaviour from its own 3/2 valve, and the centralised exhaust header keeps warm, oily exhaust air away from the product zone through a single ducted point.
Leak-test fixture seal actuation
An automotive leak-test rig seats rubber seals on seventeen test ports at once; the normally closed state guarantees every seal relaxes and vents the moment the 24 V control circuit drops out, so a fault can never leave a port clamped under pressure.
Is the Airtac 3V2M Solenoid Valve 3V2MNCE-17F the Right Part?
Pick this SKU when you need seventeen identical normally closed stations under one supply and one exhaust header, and when Cv 0.1 per station is enough flow for your cylinders or nozzles. If any single station moves a larger single-acting actuator, mount an individually-ported 3V2 beside the manifold - it carries Cv 0.18 at 1/8 in and 0.19 at 1/4 in and is vacuum-rated - or step to 3V3 (Cv 0.62, 1/4 in, vacuum-rated) for the top of the 3V flow range. Where coil economy matters more than density, the 3V1 family draws only 3.0 W on DC. If your actuators are double-acting, this 3-port series cannot serve them; the 5-port AirTAC 4V series is the correct choice.
Ordering is a one-shot decision on five points: initial state (NC here, and it cannot be changed afterwards - reversing or flipping the base gasket does not convert NC to NO on 3V2M, so a normally open variant must be ordered as such), coil voltage (AC24V here), electrical entry (DIN plug; flying-lead bodies carry an I in the code), station count (17F) and exhaust routing (centralised on this base; D in the code would give independent exhaust). Thread is PT as standard; G and NPT are order options.
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 Match the coil voltage to your controller output.
- 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 Solenoid Valve 3V2MNCE-17F FAQ
Each of the seventeen 3/2 stations has a flow coefficient Cv 0.1, operates at 0-0.8 MPa (0-114 psi) and from -20 to 70 C. The AC24V coils draw 7 VA each (DC coils in the series are 7.0 W), protection is IP65 to DIN 40050, the medium is air filtered to 40 um or finer with no lubrication required, and every valve carries a manual override. Thread is PT1/8; G and NPT are order options.
No. The normally closed state is fixed at order time - flipping or reversing the dedicated base gasket does not change NC to NO on 3V2M, so a normally open variant must be purchased as a separate SKU. On exhaust: this 17F base without a D code vents all seventeen stations through one common port, so you plan a single collection duct; a D-coded base would give each station its own exhaust stack instead.
