The AirTAC AirTAC 4V130C-06E Solenoid Valve, 5/3-way, closed center, PT1/8, AC24V, terminal entry (4V130C06E) is a genuine 5/3-way 5/3 double solenoid — closed center solenoid valve with 130C06E ports and an effective area of 8.6 mm² (Cv 0.51). It is an internally piloted spool valve that directs compressed air to double-acting cylinders and actuators.
The 4V130C-06E directs compressed air to double-acting cylinders and actuators in a 5/3 closed-center configuration. When both solenoids are de-energized, all ports are blocked, locking the cylinder in place to hold a mid-stroke position—ideal for applications requiring a pause without drift.
This model operates on an AC24V coil drawing 4.0 VA and uses a 1/8 PT terminal-box connection. With an effective area of 8.6 mm² (Cv 0.51) and a response time of 0.05 s or less, it suits small-bore cylinders in the ~Ø16-32 mm range. The IP65-rated aluminum body weighs 200 g and can be mounted on an integrated manifold.

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.

A small fixture stops a cylinder at center to clamp a delicate component for inspection, then advances after the check is complete.
Pauses a dispensing head at a safe center height between dispense cycles, preventing drips on the workpiece during indexing.
Holds a vacuum gripper at a mid-height standby position, reducing cycle time by eliminating a full retract between picks.
Choose the 4V130C-06E when your automation sequence needs a defined stop-and-hold at center, such as a clamping station that pauses before advancing. If your cylinder is larger than Ø32 mm or you need a faster cycle rate, step up to the 4V200 series for its higher Cv of 1.0.
For a drop-in replacement, match five points: the 4V100 body size, the 5/3 closed-center function, the 1/8 port with PT thread, an AC24V coil, and the standard terminal-box entry. If you are building a multi-valve station, this body mounts directly onto a 4V100 manifold base to simplify plumbing.
Quick checklist
With an effective area of 8.6 mm² (Cv 0.51) and a max frequency of 3 cycles per second, it pairs well with double-acting cylinders in the ~Ø16-32 mm range for moderate-speed applications.
As a 5/3 closed-center valve, when both solenoids are off, all ports are blocked. The cylinder is held in its last position, but for critical suspended loads you must add a pilot-operated check valve or mechanical brake—the valve alone is not a safety holding device.
