The AirTAC Airtac 3V2M Solenoid Valve 3V2MNOAI 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.
The 3V2MNOAI is the normally open, AC220V valve body of the 3V2M manifold family with flying lead entry: instead of a DIN socket you get a pre-wired lead-out, handy where the coil sits in a cramped cabinet or where a wiring loom is prefabricated. Left unpowered, supply and outlet stay connected; energising the single solenoid vents the outlet through the third port. A spring returns the coaxial shut-off poppet, the valve is direct-acting, and it flows at Cv 0.1 with IP65 protection.
This body seats onto a dedicated 3V2M base (ordered separately), where several valves share one air feed and one wiring harness - a layout that makes a fault easy to isolate station by station. A manual override helps during installation. Remember the initial state is built in and cannot be converted later; flipping the base gasket does not turn this NO valve into NC.

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. |
| NO | Normally open: air passes 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. |
| 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.
Feeding a spring-return diverter cylinder beside a parcel belt, this NO body keeps the gate in its default lane whenever control power drops, and wired leads suit a cabinet already full of plugged I/O.
On a bolt-feeding station, the normally open valve holds the air shutoff to the vibratory gate open until the PLC energises the coil, so parts keep flowing through a control fault.
Used as the pilot for a lab or paint-booth air damper actuator, the flying lead reaches coils tucked behind ductwork where a DIN plug will not fit.
Choose this body when you want normally open behaviour, 220 V AC switching and hard-wired leads. Match five points before ordering: state (NO, fixed for life - no field conversion exists), voltage (AC220V, 7 VA coil), entry (flying lead; the same code without I gives a DIN plug), base station count and exhaust (centralised, or D for independent) plus thread (PT standard, G or NPT to order). On flow, 3V2M is the density pick at Cv 0.1; step up to a single 3V2 (Cv 0.18 at 1/8 in, 0.19 at 1/4 in, vacuum-rated) or a 3V3 (Cv 0.62, 1/4 in, vacuum-rated) if one circuit needs more air, or down to the 3V1 at 3.0 W DC for light duty. A double-acting cylinder belongs on the AirTAC 4V series.
Confirm before you order
Cv 0.1 flow coefficient, operating pressure 0-0.8 MPa (0-114 psi), temperature range -20 to 70 C, AC coil power 7 VA, protection class IP65 (DIN 40050). The medium is air filtered to 40 um or finer and needs no lubrication. Port is PT1/8, with G and NPT available as order options.
A pre-wired lead-out avoids fitting and removing a plug on coils buried behind other hardware, so it suits sealed cabinets and loom-built machines. As a 3/2 valve it feeds or vents one outlet - right for single-acting spring-return cylinders, blow-off nozzles, clamps and pilot stages. It will not run a double-acting cylinder (that takes a 5-port AirTAC 4V valve) and the NO state cannot be changed after purchase.
