FAQs
Begin by aligning the 20 mm bore with your mounting frame and secure using the universal grooves designed for easy brackets. Connect the G1/8 port to your compressed air system, then set the adjustable cushioning to match your load and speed. Ensure the external guide rails are clean and parallel to prevent side loads, which helps avoid premature wear and misalignment during extended stroke operation.
Key specs include a 20 mm cylinder diameter, 700 mm stroke, G1/8 port size, operating temperature range of -30 to 80 °C, operating pressure from 1 to 8 bar, and adjustable cushioning. The cylinder features a magnetic piston and external guiding system, with an anodised aluminium barrel and NBR seals to balance durability and seal life in typical industrial environments.
Yes. The external guiding, dust protection, and lightweight single-piece extrusion are optimized for long, repeatable strokes common in packaging and material handling. Its interchangeability with the M/46000 series simplifies spares, and the magnetic piston supports easy sensor integration for robust line control and feedback in high-throughput environments.
A magnetic piston enables straightforward use with reed switches like the M/50 series, as well as proximity sensors and other standard automation sensors. The design supports sensor integration without additional housings, reducing installation time and improving feedback reliability on stop/start cycles.
Leverage its dust protection and urethane/NBR seals to maximize uptime in dirty environments, and plan for occasional cushion adjustments to match load changes. Its interchangeability with the M/46000 series simplifies spare part inventory, and the external guide reduces side-load wear, which aids long-term maintenance planning and total cost of ownership.
