The AirTAC AirTAC 4V210-06FI Solenoid Valve, 5/2-way, PT1/8, DC12V, grommet entry (4V21006FI) is a genuine 5/2-way single solenoid (spring return) solenoid valve with 21006FI ports and an effective area of 17.0 mm² (Cv 1.0). It is an internally piloted spool valve that directs compressed air to double-acting cylinders and actuators.
The AirTAC 4V210-06FI directs compressed air to double-acting cylinders and actuators, using a single-solenoid, spring-return 5/2-way design. When energised, the 2.5 W DC12V coil shifts the spool; de-energising it lets the spring snap the spool back, exhausting the cylinder's opposite port. This makes it ideal for applications where the valve must return to a known safe state if power is lost.
Pre-wired with a 0.5 m flying-lead grommet entry, the 4V210-06FI simplifies installation on compact 1/8in PT-ported manifolds. With a 17.0 mm2 effective area (Cv 1.0) and a response time of 0.05 s or less, it cycles up to 5 times a second, suiting ~32-50 mm bore cylinders in high-density automation.

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.

The 1/8in ports and 0.5 m flying lead suit tight pick-and-place heads on small assembly machines, where the spring return ensures the gripper opens if power is cut.
Directs a double-acting cylinder on a conveyor diverter. The DC12V coil and 5 c/s max frequency handle rapid sortation of small packages.
Often specified for battery-powered or mobile equipment running on 12 VDC. The IP65-rated grommet entry protects the wiring from washdown and dust.
Choose the 4V210-06FI when your design needs a single-solenoid 5/2 valve on a 1/8in port with a DC12V supply and a pre-wired grommet connection. Its 17.0 mm2 effective area (Cv 1.0) fills the gap between the smaller 4V100 series (Cv 0.6) and the larger 4V300 (Cv 1.65). For a smaller cylinder or lower air consumption, step down to a 4V110; for a bigger bore or faster cycle, the 4V310-08 is the next step up.
When replacing a valve, match all five points: the 4V200 body size, the 5/2 single-solenoid function, the 1/8in PT thread, a DC12V coil, and the grommet electrical entry. A manifold-base version is also available if you need to gang multiple valves on a common supply and exhaust.
Quick checklist
With a 17.0 mm2 effective area (Cv 1.0), it suits double-acting cylinders from about 32 mm to 50 mm bore. For smaller bores, a 4V100-series valve reduces air waste; for larger or faster ones, step up to a 4V300.
The 'I' in the code gives you a 0.5 m pre-wired flying lead instead of a terminal box. It saves wiring time on the machine and keeps the IP65 protection intact without a separate cable gland.
