The AirTAC Airtac 3V2M Solenoid Valve 3V2MNCF-9F 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.
Nine stations make the 3V2MNCF-9F a serious little control bank: nine NC 3/2 bodies on one dedicated base, DC12V coils, DIN plug entry, PT1/8 ports. Each valve is a direct-acting, single-solenoid, spring-return unit with a coaxial shut-off poppet for positive sealing between supply, outlet and exhaust.
Stations on the 3V2M family combine and expand freely and different valve types can be mixed on the same base, so a nine-station build can grow or be reconfigured without scrapping the platform. All nine stations share one air supply and one wiring run, and the centralised exhaust carries every station's vent out through a single port. Worst-case power is nine coils x 7.0 W = 63 W, about 5.3 A at 12 V with everything energised. IP65 (DIN 40050) protection and a manual override on each body round out the spec. With NC valves the outlet is exhausted until its coil is energised, so spring-return actuators park safely on power loss.

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 food-industry tray washer fires nine blow-off nozzles in sequence, and all nine nozzles return their exhaust through one vent, keeping the wet zone piped to a single silencer.
Spring-return hatch locks and vent gates around a paint booth carousel park safely on power loss thanks to NC vent logic, with nine stations handled on one compact base.
Five decisions define this assembly: NC or NO (this code is NC), DC12V, DIN plug, nine stations, centralised exhaust, all on PT1/8 threads - PT is the family default and G or NPT can be ordered. The initial state is chosen at purchase and cannot be converted afterwards, so check each actuator's fail position before committing. Sizing both ways: 3V2M wins on manifold density at Cv 0.1 per station; when a station demands higher flow, step to a standalone 3V2 (Cv 0.18 at 1/8 or 0.19 at 1/4, vacuum-rated) or the 3V3 at Cv 0.62 (1/4, vacuum-rated); low-power duties suit the 3V1 at 3.0 W DC. Double-acting cylinders require a 5-port valve - the AirTAC 4V series covers that.
Confirm before you order
Nine NC 3/2 stations, DC12V coils at 7.0 W each (AC builds of the family draw 7 VA), Cv 0.1 flow coefficient per station, operating pressure 0-0.8 MPa (0-114 psi), media temperature -20 to 70 C, IP65 to DIN 40050, PT1/8 ports, and clean filtered air (40 um or finer) without lubrication.
This code uses a centralised exhaust: all nine stations vent through one shared port, which simplifies piping and lets a single silencer serve the whole manifold. Choose the D-suffix (independent exhaust) instead when each station must vent separately - for example, to keep a fast-dumping station from disturbing its neighbours. Station count and valve mix can also be expanded on the 3V2M platform.
