The AirTAC Airtac 3V2M Solenoid Valve 3V2MNOAI-15F 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-15F answers a simple question: where should the air be when power fails? Normally open stations stay pressurised at the outlet until their AC220V coil is energised to vent them - the opposite logic to NC - and 15 of these valves share one base, one supply and one wiring run.
Internally each valve is a direct-acting coaxial poppet with spring return, mounted on the 3V2M base so stations can combine, expand or mix types freely. Fifteen coils at 7 VA give about 105 VA worst case on the transformer. The flow coefficient per station is Cv 0.1, and protection is IP65 (DIN 40050).

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. |
| 15F | 15 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.
A furniture press with 15 pneumatic hold-downs keeps boards secured whenever the line sits idle, since NO stations stay fed until each coil vents its clamp.
Spring-return deflector gates on a parcel sorter snap back when vented; the NO bank holds them positioned and releases a gate only when the control system calls a divert.
Fifteen nozzles over an aluminium extrusion line run a continuous cooling curtain, with each solenoid able to shut off its slice of airflow on command.
Before ordering, fix the five-point spec: normally open state, AC220V voltage, flying-lead entry, 15 stations, centralised exhaust, PT1/8 threads (G and NPT are catalogue options to order). Remember that NO and NC are set in manufacture - the dedicated base gasket cannot be flipped to change it, and the valve cannot be reconfigured afterwards.
For higher flow at a single station use a standalone 3V2 instead: Cv 0.18 at 1/8 in or Cv 0.19 at 1/4 in, both vacuum rated; the 3V3 reaches Cv 0.62 at 1/4 in. If the duty is minor, the 3V1 runs on 3.0 W DC. Double-acting cylinder control belongs to the AirTAC 4V family, not to any 3/2 valve.
Confirm before you order
Each AC220V coil draws 7 VA, so a fully energised 3V2MNOAI-15F presents about 105 VA to the transformer - check your supply rating. Other per-station figures: Cv 0.1 flow coefficient, 0-0.8 MPa operating pressure, -20 to 70 C temperature range, IP65 (DIN 40050) housing, 40 um filtration and no lubrication required.
NO feeds the outlet until energised; NC does the reverse. On 3V2M the state is decided at order time: the base gasket that sets it must not be flipped, and flipping it will not convert the valve anyway. Confirm how your machine should behave on power loss, then order that state.
