About the AirTAC 4V130C-06FI Solenoid Valve, 5/3-way, closed center, PT1/8, DC12V, grommet entry (4V130C06FI)
The AirTAC 4V130C-06FI is a 5/3-way double-solenoid valve built on the compact 4V100 body, configured with a closed center spool. When both solenoids are de-energized, all cylinder ports are blocked, locking the actuator in place—ideal for holding a clamped part or pausing a short-stroke assembly slide without drifting. This variant ships with a DC12V coil (2.5 W) and an integrated grommet-style electrical entry, providing a 0.5 m flying lead that simplifies wiring into tight DIN-rail panels or small machine enclosures.
With an effective area of 8.6 mm² (Cv 0.51) and a 3 cycles/sec max frequency, the 4V130C suits double-acting cylinders in the ~Ø16–32 mm range for light positioning tasks. The spool responds in 0.05 s or less, and the IP65-rated aluminum body handles filtered, unlubricated air from 0.15–0.8 MPa. Note that the closed center alone is not a safety hold; for suspended loads, add a pilot-operated check valve at the cylinder ports.

Where the AirTAC 4V130C-06FI Solenoid Valve, 5/3-way, closed center, PT1/8, DC12V, grommet entry (4V130C06FI) Is Used
Small-Part Clamping
Holds a pneumatic clamp closed at center for delicate gluing or soldering fixtures, where the cylinder must not drift under tool pressure.
Benchtop Liquid Handling
Pauses a syringe-pump actuator mid-stroke for precise aspiration and dispense steps in lab automation.
Pick-and-Place Stop
Stops a miniature gripper arm at an intermediate position during a two-stage pick-and-place cycle on a desktop assembly cell.
Is the AirTAC 4V130C-06FI Solenoid Valve, 5/3-way, closed center, PT1/8, DC12V, grommet entry (4V130C06FI) the Right Valve?
Choose the 4V130C-06FI when your small automation cell needs a 5/3 closed-center function with a low-power DC12V supply and a pre-wired grommet connection. The 5/3 center blocks all ports at rest, holding a double-acting cylinder in position without continuous air consumption—useful for clamp-and-dwell sequences. If your cylinder is larger than Ø32 mm or you need faster cycling, step up to the 4V200 series (Cv 1.0) for greater flow capacity.
For replacement, match five points: 4V100 body size, 5/3 closed-center function, 1/8" PT port, DC12V coil voltage, and grommet (flying-lead) electrical entry. This valve also drops onto any standard 4V100 manifold base, letting you gang multiple stations with a common supply and exhaust.
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-06FI Solenoid Valve, 5/3-way, closed center, PT1/8, DC12V, grommet entry (4V130C06FI) FAQ
With a Cv of 0.51 and an effective area of 8.6 mm², it pairs well with double-acting cylinders in the ~Ø16–32 mm range for typical clamping and positioning tasks. For larger bores or high-speed cycling, consider the 4V200 series (Cv 1.0) to avoid restricting flow.
The 4V130C is a double-solenoid valve with a closed-center spool. When both solenoids are off, all ports are blocked, trapping air on both sides of the cylinder piston. This holds the actuator near its last position, but it is not a safety-rated holding brake—external checks are needed for suspended loads.
