About the Airtac 4V100 Solenoid Valve 4V130EM5E
The AirTAC 4V130E-M5E is a 5/3-way double-solenoid valve built on the compact 4V100 body, configured here with an M5 threaded port and an AC24V coil drawing 4.0 VA. When both solenoids are de-energised, the spool moves to the center position where both cylinder ports (A and B) are connected to exhaust, allowing a double-acting actuator to float freely—useful for manual positioning or applications where the load must not be held under pressure.
With an effective area of 8.6 mm² (Cv 0.51) and a maximum cycling rate of 3 cycles per second, this valve suits small-bore double-acting cylinders in the ~Ø16-32 mm range. The sliding-column spool responds in 0.05 seconds or less, and the IP65-rated aluminum body operates reliably from -20 to +70 °C on filtered, non-lubricated compressed air at 0.15-0.8 MPa.

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 |
| Protection / insulation | IP65 (DIN40050), B-class |
| Voltage options | DC24V, DC12V, AC110V, AC220V |

Where the Airtac 4V100 Solenoid Valve 4V130EM5E Is Used
Manual-Assist Benchtop Clamps
The exhaust center allows a small double-acting clamp cylinder to be freely opened or closed by hand when the valve is at rest, speeding up part changeover on assembly jigs.
Laboratory Sampling Actuators
In a fluid sampling system, a 5/3 exhaust-center valve lets the probe retract without residual pressure, preventing drips and allowing safe manual repositioning between cycles.
Miniature Pick-and-Place Grippers
Controls a small gripper on a benchtop Cartesian robot; the floating center state simplifies teaching new positions by letting the technician move the jaw by hand during setup.
Is the Airtac 4V100 Solenoid Valve 4V130EM5E the Right Valve?
Choose the 4V130E-M5E when your circuit needs a small, double-solenoid 5/3 valve that safely dumps cylinder pressure at neutral—ideal for benchtop fixtures where an operator may need to move the tooling by hand. The M5 port keeps the footprint tiny for direct mounting on miniature manifolds or standalone sub-bases. If your cylinder is larger than Ø32 mm or requires faster fill rates, step up to the 4V200 series (Cv 1.0) for greater flow capacity.
For a drop-in replacement, match five points: the 4V100 body size, the 5/3 exhaust-center function (30E), the M5 port, the AC24V coil voltage, and the terminal-box electrical entry. This model uses the standard PT thread form on the M5 port, so no separate thread designation is needed. Always verify the center condition—exhaust center (this model) is not interchangeable with closed or pressure center in a safety or holding circuit.
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 4V100 Solenoid Valve 4V130EM5E FAQ
With an effective area of 8.6 mm² (Cv 0.51), this 4V100-body valve suits small double-acting cylinders typically in the Ø16-32 mm range. It is not intended for larger cylinders; for those, consider a 4V200 or 4V300 series valve with a higher Cv.
This is a double-solenoid valve with an exhaust center. When both solenoids are de-energised, the spool springs to the center position, connecting both cylinder ports to exhaust. The double-acting cylinder will not hold position—it will float freely, which is intentional for manual adjustment but unsuitable for load-holding without an external brake.
