FAQs
KM/8025/M/260 is fully ISO 6432 compliant, uses a 25 mm bore with a 260 mm stroke, and features standard G1/8 ports plus a nose mounting nut and piston rod locknut. This design enables straightforward replacement in existing automation frames with minimal rework, reducing downtime during upgrades or maintenance.
The cylinder operates from -10 to 80 °C and supports 1 to 10 bar (15 to 145 psi). These ranges suit cleaning cycles and hygienic applications in food processing while maintaining consistent piston speed and force across typical process loads.
Yes. The stainless steel construction (AISI 304 barrel and AISI 303 rod) provides excellent corrosion resistance and CIP compatibility. The magnetic piston enables easy sensing, and buffer cushioning protects delicate components, helping maintain sanitary surfaces and extend service life in food and beverage lines.
Theoretical force is 294 N at rated pressure, supporting reliable actuation for typical 25 mm bore tasks. Actual thrust depends on supply pressure and load. The combination of stable piston design and cushioning allows faster cycles without compromising seal life or control precision.
Nose mounting nut and piston rod locknut come standard, with ISO 6432 mounting patterns and a standard G1/8 port. The stainless construction simplifies cleaning and reduces corrosion-related downtime. Minimal maintenance is typically required between CIP cycles, contributing to higher overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) in automated lines.
