About the AirTAC 4V130E-06F Solenoid Valve, 5/3-way, exhaust center, PT1/8, DC12V, terminal entry (4V130E06F)
The 4V130E-06F is a 5/3-way double-solenoid pneumatic directional valve from the compact AirTAC 4V100 series, engineered to direct compressed air to double-acting cylinders and actuators. In its de-energized center position, both cylinder ports are connected to exhaust, allowing the actuator to float freely—ideal for applications where manual positioning or free movement is required mid-cycle. This model operates on a DC12V coil drawing just 2.5 W, and features a terminal box electrical entry with PT (Rc tapered) 1/8" ports.
With an effective area of 8.6 mm² (Cv 0.51) and a maximum cycling speed of 3 cycles per second, this valve is well-suited for smaller bore cylinders in the ~Ø16-32 mm range. The aluminum alloy body weighs 200 g and delivers a fast response time of 0.05 seconds or less, ensuring crisp actuation in high-density benchtop automation. Its IP65-rated enclosure and spool-and-sleeve design guarantee reliable, long-life operation even in demanding industrial micro-environments.

Where the AirTAC 4V130E-06F Solenoid Valve, 5/3-way, exhaust center, PT1/8, DC12V, terminal entry (4V130E06F) Is Used
Manual Load Positioning
The exhaust center position completely depressurizes the cylinder, enabling operators to manually reposition a tooling slide or fixture without fighting air pressure, common in small assembly jigs.
Benchtop Pick-and-Place
In compact pick-and-place modules, the 4V130E-06F allows the Z-axis to float freely when de-energized, simplifying setup and preventing trapped energy during emergency stops.
Laboratory Sampling Actuators
Suited for small-bore double-acting actuators on sampling mechanisms, where the 2.5 W DC12V coil and free-float center position provide safe, low-power operation between cycles.
Is the AirTAC 4V130E-06F Solenoid Valve, 5/3-way, exhaust center, PT1/8, DC12V, terminal entry (4V130E06F) the Right Valve?
Choose the 4V130E-06F when your circuit requires a 5/3 exhaust-center function, allowing a double-acting cylinder to be de-pressurized for safe, free movement at center. This 4V100 body size is the right starting point for cylinders up to about 32 mm bore; if your application demands higher flow for larger cylinders or faster cycle rates, consider stepping up to the 4V200 series, which offers a Cv of 1.0. For manifold mounting, this valve is compatible with 4V100 series base plates, simplifying multi-valve assemblies.
When replacing an existing valve, match these five points exactly: body size (4V100), function (5/3 exhaust center, double solenoid), port and thread size (1/8" PT), coil voltage (DC12V), and electrical entry (terminal box). This ensures drop-in compatibility without modifying your plumbing or wiring layout.
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 4V130E-06F Solenoid Valve, 5/3-way, exhaust center, PT1/8, DC12V, terminal entry (4V130E06F) FAQ
In the center (de-energized) position, both the cylinder's A and B ports are connected to the exhaust port. This means no pressure is trapped, and the cylinder rod can be moved freely by hand or external forces, which is useful for manual setup or safety requirements.
With a Cv of 0.51, this 4V100 series valve is best matched to double-acting cylinders in the ~Ø16-32 mm range. While it can physically shift a 40 mm cylinder, the cycle speed will be noticeably slower. For a 40 mm bore, a 4V200 series valve (Cv 1.0) is a more appropriate choice.
