FAQs
KM/8026/M/160 supports Pneufit 10 push-in fittings and several mounting styles, including foot mounting and rear hinge options. For best results, choose the M/P72404 foot mounting or KQM rear hinge fittings designed for 25 mm bore. Ensure proper alignment of the G1/8 port and verify tightness to prevent leaks. This minimizes cycle interruptions and maximizes uptime.
The cylinder has a 25 mm bore and a 160 mm stroke with a theoretical force of about 294 N. It is double-acting and operates at 1–10 bar (15–145 psi). Temperature range is -10 to 80 °C. This combination provides robust actuation for medium-duty automation tasks while maintaining precise control and repeatability.
Yes. The cylinder uses X5 Cr Ni 18-10 (1.4301) stainless steel for the barrel and X10 Cr Ni S 18-9 (1.4305) for the piston rod, delivering high corrosion resistance. It is designed to withstand wash-down environments commonly found in the food and beverage industry, helping maintain sanitary conditions and prolong equipment life.
KM/8026/M/160 complies with ISO 6432, ensuring compatibility with standard pneumatic components and mounting patterns. The design includes a magnetic piston for straightforward sensing. While not listed with CE or IP ratings in the data provided, ISO 6432 compliance and food-grade suitability offer strong regulatory alignment for many applications.
Regularly inspect the adjustable cushioning to maintain controlled deceleration and minimize impact wear. The stainless steel construction reduces corrosion-related downtime, while the magnetic piston simplifies sensor integration, lowering installation time. These factors contribute to higher machine uptime, lower maintenance costs, and faster ROI in continuous production environments with frequent actuation tasks.
