The AirTAC Airtac 4V300 Solenoid Valve 4V330C-08-A is a genuine 5/3-way 5/3 double solenoid — closed center solenoid valve with A ports and an effective area of 21.3 mm² (Cv 1.25). It is an internally piloted spool valve that directs compressed air to double-acting cylinders and actuators.
The AirTAC 4V330C-08A is a 5/3-way double-solenoid valve with a closed center, designed to bring a double-acting cylinder to a controlled stop and hold its position. When both solenoids are de-energized, all ports are blocked, trapping air on both sides of the piston to resist movement. This AC220V model uses a terminal-box electrical entry and comes with 1/4-inch PT (Rc) threaded ports on the inlet, outlet, and exhaust.
Built on the 4V300 aluminum-alloy body, this valve provides an effective area of 21.3 mm² (Cv 1.25) and suits cylinders in the ~Ø50-80 mm range. The spool shifts in 0.05 seconds or less, and the AC220V coil draws 4.5 VA. With IP65 protection and a locking manual override, it is a reliable choice for clamping or intermediate positioning tasks.

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 closed-center spool blocks all ports at rest, keeping a pneumatic clamp securely engaged on a workpiece without continuous air consumption or solenoid power.
Use the 4V330C to halt a double-acting cylinder at a mid-stroke point for a two-step pressing or assembly operation, holding the position until the next signal.
Controls a diverter gate on a conveyor line, stopping it in a closed-center position to block product flow without drifting, then shifting to either open path on command.
Choose the 4V330C-08A when your pneumatic circuit needs a 5/3 closed-center function on a 1/4-inch port. The closed center is ideal for stopping a cylinder mid-stroke and holding it against moderate external forces, though for suspended loads you must add a pilot-operated check valve. If your cylinder is smaller (under Ø40 mm), the 4V200 series (Cv 1.0) may offer a better size match; for larger bores above Ø80 mm, step up to the 4V400 body (Cv 2.82) for faster filling.
For a direct replacement, match five points: the 4V300 body size, the 5/3 closed-center function (30C), the 1/4-inch PT port, an AC220V coil, and the standard terminal-box entry. This valve can be mounted individually or ganged on a manifold base, making it easy to integrate into a multi-valve station.
Quick checklist
With a Cv of 1.25 and a 21.3 mm² effective area, this 5/3 valve is well-matched to double-acting cylinders with bores from approximately 50 mm up to 80 mm. It provides sufficient flow for smooth, controlled actuation in that range.
As a double-solenoid valve, the spool stays in its last commanded position. If it was in the center (both solenoids off), all ports remain blocked, trapping air in the cylinder to hold the piston in place. If it was shifted to an end position, it will stay there. This is a friction-held memory state, not a magnetic latch.
