The AirTAC AirTAC 3V310-08 Solenoid Valve, 3V300 Series (3V31008NOF) is a genuine 3-port 2-position (3/2) solenoid valve with 1/4 in ports. A 3/2 valve either feeds its outlet or vents it to exhaust, so it suits single-acting cylinders, air blow, clamping, vacuum switching and pilot duty. We stock this code and confirm its published figures from the datasheet on request.
A 3/2 solenoid valve has one job: with three ports (supply, outlet, exhaust) it either pressurises the outlet or releases it to exhaust. The 3V310-08NOF is the normally open version, so air passes to the outlet until the DC12V coil is energised and the valve switches the outlet to exhaust. Its DC12V coil makes it a straightforward match for vehicle and battery-fed control circuits, and the 1/4in PT port takes common push-in or threaded fittings.
You are buying a genuine AirTAC part. Within the 3V1, 3V2 and 3V3 ranges you can also order normally closed versions, five coil voltages, flying-lead or DIN entry, and 3V-F manifold bases that carry several valves on one shared supply. Coil voltage is fixed at the factory, so pick the right one at order time; when you enquire we will pull the datasheet figures for you.

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 12V chassis-battery circuit driving a short blast of air that keeps the compactor position sensor clear, with the normally open valve feeding the nozzle whenever the truck system is live.
A single-acting marker ram on a drill or seeder, powered from the tractor's 12V accessory socket so no separate control voltage has to be wired into the cab.
A maintenance workshop's bench rig fed from a small 12V DC supply, using the valve to connect and vent a test piece's single-acting cylinder or blow circuit on demand.
Start with the coil: DC12V matches a vehicle battery or a 12V DC supply, and it cannot be changed by rewiring, so order the voltage your panel actually runs. The normally open state means air reaches the outlet until you energise the coil - right for blow functions and holds that must stay on by default; choose normally closed when the outlet must stay dead until a signal arrives. The DIN plug entry takes a standard connector; pick the FI flying-lead version if you would rather wire straight to terminals. One honest note: flow and pressure figures for this family are not in our published data, so ask us to check the valve against your actuator before ordering. Where published figures are needed immediately, the AirTAC 3V2 and 3V3 bodies carry documented flow and coil-power data, and a double-acting cylinder calls for the 5-port AirTAC 4V range.
Confirm before you order
A normally open valve returns to its rest position without power, so the outlet stays connected to the supply and flow continues. If your circuit needs the outlet shut and vented when power fails, order the normally closed version of the same body instead. Filter the air upstream of any solenoid valve - clean, dry air is the one universal requirement.
This page carries none because we do not hold the datasheet for these valve bodies in published form. Request a quote and we will confirm every figure you need from the manufacturer's documentation. Alternatively, the AirTAC 3V2 and 3V3 bodies already have published flow and coil-power data if that is a requirement today.
