About the AirTAC 4V130C-06 Solenoid Valve, 4V100 Series (4V130C06E-W)
The AirTAC 4V130C06E-W is a 5/3-way double-solenoid valve in the compact 4V100 body, built with the -W external-pilot option: pilot air is fed to a separate external pilot port rather than being tapped from the main supply, so the spool keeps switching dependably even when the main line runs at low pressure or on a vacuum / low-pressure circuit. At center position all five ports are blocked, so a connected double-acting cylinder parks and holds wherever it was when both coils dropped. The port size is PT 1/8 (Rc tapered), with 8.6 mm2 effective area (Cv 0.51) and a maximum cycling rate of 3 cycles per second.
This exact SKU carries an AC24V coil drawing 4.0 VA with a terminal-box electrical entry, and the aluminum body weighs 200 g. Switching response is 0.05 s or better, operating pressure spans 0.15-0.8 MPa (proof 1.2 MPa), the spool runs on air filtered by a 40 um element, lubrication is not required, and protection is IP65 (DIN40050) with class B insulation. It suits roughly O16-32 mm bore double-acting cylinders and can be stacked on a base into an integrated manifold group.

Flow & Coil Options
| Effective area | 8.6 mm² |
|---|---|
| Flow coefficient | Cv 0.51 |
| Response time | ≤ 0.05 s |
| Coil power | AC 3.5 VA · DC24V 2.8 W · DC12V 2.5 W |

Where the AirTAC 4V130C-06 Solenoid Valve, 4V100 Series (4V130C06E-W) Is Used
Low-pressure clamping fixtures
The -W external pilot keeps the spool shifting on light-duty clamping circuits where the main supply sits near the bottom of the range, while the closed center locks the clamp cylinder in place at mid-cycle.
Vacuum and test-rig positioning
On lab and test benches that run vacuum or low-pressure media, an internally piloted 5/3 valve would stall; this external-pilot version switches from a separate pilot feed so stroke position can be held on demand.
Indexing slide stop-and-hold
A double-acting slide on a small indexing unit parks mid-stroke when both AC24V coils are off - the blocked center holds the slide, and the pilot cylinder stroke resume without drift before the next step.
Is the AirTAC 4V130C-06 Solenoid Valve, 4V100 Series (4V130C06E-W) the Right Valve?
Choose this model when you need closed-center holding (the cylinder stays put at center), a low-voltage AC24V supply for safety around operators, and a terminal box for fixed conduit wiring rather than flying leads. Because the -W version takes its pilot from an external port, plan a small pilot supply line from a source that stays pressurised - the right choice on low-pressure mains or vacuum circuits where an internally piloted valve would fail to shift. The 8.6 mm2 / Cv 0.51 flow class covers ~O16-32 mm bores; move up to the 4V200 (Cv 1.0) for larger cylinders or faster cycles. Sizing a replacement: match all five points - 4V100 body, 30C closed-center function, 1/8 port plus PT thread, AC24V coil, terminal entry - and now also the -W external pilot, since a standard internally piloted 4V130C-06E will not behave the same on a low-pressure line.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required flow (Cv) for cylinder & speed
- ✓ Function: single / double / 5-3 center
- ✓ Coil voltage (DC24 / AC220 …)
- ✓ Port thread (M5 / 1/8 / 1/4 / 3/8 / 1/2)
- ✓ Single valve or manifold base?
Installation & Wiring Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 0.8 MPa operating pressure.
- check Match coil voltage to your controller output.
- check Use the manual override to test before powering.
- check Fit silencers or fittings to the exhaust ports.
- check Wiring by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
AirTAC 4V130C-06 Solenoid Valve, 4V100 Series (4V130C06E-W) FAQ
The -W option feeds pilot air through a dedicated external pilot port instead of tapping the main supply inside the valve. The spool therefore shifts reliably even when the main line pressure is low or the circuit runs in vacuum - conditions where an internally piloted valve may not actuate. You route a small pilot supply to the external port; AirTAC does not publish a minimum pilot-pressure figure for this size, so size the pilot source from your own lowest expected line condition.
It directs air to double-acting cylinders and actuators in the ~O16-32 mm bore class at 8.6 mm2 effective area (Cv 0.51), cycling up to 3 times per second with a response of 0.05 s or better. At center both work ports and the exhausts are blocked, so the cylinder holds its position - for suspended or safety-critical loads add a mechanical brake or pilot-operated check valves at the cylinder ports, because the valve alone is not a certified fall-protection device.
