FAQs
KM/8020/M/120 uses ISO 6432 mounting and features a G1/8 port, plus a nose mounting nut and piston rod locknut. This combination simplifies retrofit projects by aligning with standard mounting footprints, reducing the need for custom adapters and shortening downtime during installation. Ensure your frame accepts ISO 6432 components and verify porting matches your compressed air supply.
Operating temperature spans -10 to 80 °C, with a pressure range of 1 to 10 bar (15 to 145 psi). The cylinder diameter is 20 mm and stroke is 120 mm, delivering up to 188 N of theoretical force. This makes it suitable for medium-load, high-cycle applications while preserving reliability and compact footprint.
Yes. The cylinder uses a corrosion-resistant stainless steel barrel and is designed for environments where hygiene and cleanability are priorities. The magnetic piston supports reliable sensing in automated lines, and buffer cushioning minimizes debris generation from mechanical shocks, helping maintain sanitary conditions and equipment longevity.
The unit complies with ISO 6432, ensuring standardized mounting and compatibility across many suppliers. While the data highlights ISO compliance and material suitability for food applications, other certifications such as CE or IP ratings are not specified in the provided data. For definitive certification coverage, consult the datasheet linked in the product downloads.
The combination of magnetic piston, buffer cushioning, and corrosion-resistant construction reduces wear and maintenance intervals. Regular inspection of mounting hardware and seals, plus keeping the environment within temperature and pressure specs, helps sustain actuation performance. The robust stainless steel design lowers replacement frequency, supporting higher uptime and lower total cost of ownership.
