FAQs

This unit follows ISO 6432 with a 25 mm bore, making it broadly compatible with standard mounting patterns used in compact pneumatic assemblies. It includes a nose mounting nut and piston rod locknut to simplify alignment and secure installation. When planning installation, ensure adequate space for the 65 mm stroke and verify G1/8 port size for piping. The result is rapid commissioning and predictable performance across interchangeable modules.
Key specs include 25 mm bore, 65 mm stroke, double-acting operation, adjustable cushioning, and a theoretical 294 N force. Operating range is 1–10 bar with a temperature range of -10 to 80 °C. The magnetic piston provides feedback for precise position sensing, improving cycle accuracy and control in automated sequences while cushioning reduces shock, protecting downstream components.
Yes. The cylinder uses stainless steel construction (barrel and piston rod materials specified as AISI 304/303 equivalents) and is designed for high corrosion resistance, making it well-suited for food, beverage, and other washdown-intensive environments. The design supports hygiene requirements and helps maintain long-term reliability in challenging process settings.
The unit operates between -10 and 80 °C (14 to 176 °F) and accepts 1 to 10 bar (15 to 145 psi). This broad range accommodates standard factory air systems and process lines, enabling reliable performance across varied ambient conditions and loads without compromising control or life expectancy.
The combination of adjustable cushioning, magnetic piston feedback, and stainless-steel construction extends service life and reduces maintenance intervals. Standard features like the nose mounting nut and piston rod locknut simplify assembly and adjustments, minimizing commissioning time. For lifecycle cost, the durable materials and standardized ISO 6432 footprint help lower spare parts and replacement costs over the system’s lifetime.
