Norgren KA/802100/M/100 ISOLine Cylinder - ISO 6431

Stainless steel construction for the barrel and piston rod delivers high corrosion resistance and washdown capability, extending service life in sanitary environments and reducing parts replacement costs. This directly improves uptime and reduces contamination risk on food processing lines, enabling compliant production. The device adheres to ISO 6431, VDMA 24562 and NFE 49-003-1, ensuring interchangeability and compatibility across global plants, which minimizes downtime during line changes and replacements. Adaptive cushioning system (ACS) provides smooth deceleration and reduced impact at end-of-stroke, diminishing mechanical wear and vibration, which translates to longer cycle life and lower maintenance costs in high-speed applications. A magnetic piston enables straightforward position sensing with standard switches, simplifying integration with PLCs and sensors on packaging and handling systems. ISO 15552 mounting compatibility and a 100 mm diameter with G1/2 ports enable quick retrofits on existing equipment, reducing installation time and retrofit risk. The operating range of 1–16 bar and -10 to 80 C supports diverse environments—from cleanroom-adjacent packaging to tougher processing zones—without compromising performance. The device delivers a theoretical force of 4710 N, suitable for demanding actuation tasks such as lifting, guiding, or indexing heavy loads in food and beverage lines. With a 100x100 mm footprint, it fits neatly into compact automation cells, while standard service kits and options, including KQA/8100/00, simplify maintenance and lifecycle planning. Overall, this cylinder provides a robust, scalable solution that aligns with lean manufacturing goals and regulatory requirements for hygienic automation.
