The AirTAC Airtac 4V Solenoid Valves 4V11006FT is a genuine 5/2-way single solenoid (spring return) solenoid valve with 11006FT ports and an effective area of 10.2 mm² (Cv 0.6). It is an internally piloted spool valve that directs compressed air to double-acting cylinders and actuators.
The AirTAC 4V110-06FT is a single-solenoid 5/2 directional valve that switches compressed air between the two sides of a double-acting cylinder. Energise the coil and the spool shifts; cut power and the built-in spring returns the valve to its rest position, so the cylinder always travels back to a defined end. The T suffix gives 1/8in NPT tapered ports for North American piping, and the DC12V coil draws only 2.5 W, so it can share a low-voltage battery or vehicle supply instead of a mains panel. Flow sits in the small-body class: 10.2 mm2 effective area (Cv 0.6), a response of 0.05 s or less, and up to 5 cycles per second. At just 120 g the valve suits cylinders of roughly Dia16-32 mm bore and can sit on a base as part of an integrated manifold group. IP65 (DIN40050) sealing and B-class insulation protect the terminal-box wiring in dusty workshop air, and no lubrication of the supply air is needed.

Size the valve so effective area / Cv is not the bottleneck for your cylinder bore and speed. Undersized valves slow the actuator. Note 5/3 (center) versions have a smaller effective area than the 5/2 of the same body size.

On a 12 V mobile maintenance cart, the 2.5 W DC12V coil actuates a Dia20 mm double-acting gripper cylinder for opening doors or drawers with no inverter in the circuit.
A benchtop feeder that pushes small electronic connector housings off a track with a Dia16 mm double-acting cylinder gets Cv 0.6 flow, enough for short fast strokes at up to 5 cycles per second.
A Dia25 mm clamp cylinder on a jig holds a part while the coil stays energised; when power drops, the spring returns the valve and the clamp retracts, so no latched signal is left in the panel.
Step down to the same-body 4V110 with an M5 port when you want the most compact piping possible; the flow class stays Cv 0.6 either way. Step up to the 4V200 body (Cv 1.0) if the bore grows past about Dia32 mm or the cycle needs more speed. Stay with function 10 where the cylinder must always spring back on power loss; pick the 4V120 double solenoid if it should hold its last pulsed position instead. Run one inline valve or group several on a manifold base. When replacing an old unit, match five points: 4V100 body, function 10, 1/8in port with NPT thread, DC12V coil, terminal-box entry.
Quick checklist
Effective area 10.2 mm2 (Cv 0.6), response time 0.05 s or less, up to 5 cycles per second, operating pressure 0.15-0.8 MPa with 1.2 MPa proof pressure, air filtered by a 40 um element, DC12V coil at 2.5 W, IP65 terminal box, B-class insulation and a valve weight of 120 g.
The T suffix specifies 1/8in NPT tapered threads, the standard for North American pipe fittings, while the F coil runs on 12 V DC at only 2.5 W so it can be wired to a battery or vehicle supply. If your panel is 24 V DC or 110/220 V AC, order the same valve with the matching voltage letter; the mechanics and flow stay identical.
