The AirTAC AirTAC 4V210-08 Solenoid Valve, 4V200 Series (4V21008BI-W) is a genuine 5/2-way single solenoid (spring return) solenoid valve with W 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 4V210-08BI-W is a 5/2 single-solenoid directional valve that routes compressed air to the two sides of a double-acting cylinder: energise the coil to shift one way, cut the signal and the internal spring returns the spool, sending the rod back. Its 17.0 mm2 effective area (Cv 1.0) places it in the mid-size 4V200 body class, matched to double-acting cylinders of roughly O32 to O50 mm bore.
This build pairs a DC24V coil drawing just 3.0 W with a grommet entry that arrives pre-wired on a 0.5 m flying lead, so hookup is a two-core connection instead of terminal-block terminations inside a box. The spool moves in 0.05 s or less, the aluminum body weighs 220 g, and the 1/4 in ports are PT (Rc) tapered. Note that AirTAC rates flow by chart, not by a single L/min figure - size with Cv 1.0.

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.

An O40 mm double-acting cylinder kicks off-spec bottles off the conveyor; Cv 1.0 fills the bore briskly at 0.5 MPa and the 5 cycle/s rating keeps pace with line speed, while the 0.5 m pre-wired lead reaches the low-voltage control cabinet without extra cabling.
On a machining-centre fixture, DC24V pairs directly with the machine's 24 V I/O cards; because the spring returns the spool whenever the signal drops, the double-acting clamp reverts to its rest position after every cycle without a second valve.
A small assembly-bench ram on an O32-O40 mm bore gets enough flow from Cv 1.0 for steady manual cycling, and the two-hand control can simply be released to spring-retract the ram between parts.
Step down to the 4V100 body (Cv 0.6) for small O32 mm bores that develop only about 8 kgf push at 0.5 MPa, or up to the 4V300 (Cv 1.65) when an O50 mm bore pushing near 20 kgf needs faster strokes than Cv 1.0 allows. Function-wise, choose the double-solenoid 4V220 if the cylinder must stay put after a pulse, or a 4V230 5/3 type when a centre condition matters. Mount single valves inline, or stack several on a 4V200 manifold base to share one air supply. For a like-for-like replacement, match five points: 4V200 body, function 10, 1/4 in port with PT thread, DC24V coil, and grommet (I) entry.
Quick checklist
Flow is Cv 1.0 through a 17.0 mm2 effective area (AirTAC publishes flow as a chart, so there is no single L/min number). Response is 0.05 s or less, operating pressure 0.15-0.8 MPa with 1.2 MPa proof, up to 5 cycles per second, IP65 protection, -20 to +70 C, DC24V coil at 3.0 W, and 220 g valve weight.
Directionally, yes: removing the 24 V signal springs the spool back, so the double-acting cylinder returns predictably to the de-energised side. It only drives double-acting actuators - single-acting ones need a 3/2 valve. For suspended or hazardous loads, add a pilot-operated check valve or mechanical brake; the valve alone is not a certified load-holding device.
