Norgren M/162040/MI/180 Rotary Actuator - 180°
Part Number: M/162040/MI/180
Quick Summary
Norgren M/162040/MI/180 rotary actuator delivers precise 180° rotation for compact indexing in automated lines. This design tackles the challenge of mounting robust rotary motion in tight profile spaces, thanks to its 40 mm bore and double-acting cylinder. While the data does not list specific certifications, actuators of this class are commonly aligned with CE marking and standard IP/safety practices; verify your regional requirements with procurement. The unit uses anodised aluminium bodies and polyurethane seals to withstand industrial environments while offering adjustable cushioning for smooth operation. With versatile mounting options and compatible fittings, it delivers reliable performance and lifecycle efficiency that helps reduce maintenance overhead and unplanned downtime.

13.8 Nm torque with 180° rotation enables higher throughput in indexing tasks, improving cycle times and part-position accuracy for faster transfers between stations. The double-acting design supports reliable actuation in both directions, while adjustable cushioning minimizes impact and wear on downstream machinery, extending component life and reducing maintenance costs. Anodised aluminium bodies provide corrosion resistance with a lightweight profile, easing installation and reducing overall system weight. The 40 mm cylinder diameter pairs with a G1/4 port to simplify piping and fittings, enabling quick integration with standard Pneufit C components for compact layouts. Front or rear flange mounting and stud mounting options offer flexible installation to suit machine envelopes, reducing mounting time and optimizing panel space. Service kits (QM/162040/00) and compatible switches (M/50/LSU/5V) support proactive maintenance and seamless sensing integration, improving uptime and control reliability.

FAQs
Use the available mounting options: BG - Front/Rear Flange Mounting (40 mm bore) for stable, rigid alignment; A - Front or Rear Stud Mounting (32/40 mm bore) for adjustable positioning. Start by selecting the mounting style that best fits your machine envelope, then align the actuator with the driven linkage and secure with appropriate fasteners. Confirm clearance for the 180° swing and ensure the Pneufit C fittings align with the G1/4 port. The service kits and mounting brackets are designed to simplify retrofit and integration.
Key specs include 13.8 Nm torque, 180° rotation, 40 mm cylinder diameter, G1/4 port size, and operating pressure from 1 to 10 bar. The medium is compressed air, with adjustable cushioning to control impact. The unit is double-acting, suitable for bidirectional actuation, and uses anodised aluminium bodies with polyurethane seals for durability in industrial environments.
Yes. The 180° rotation and adjustable cushioning support precise positioning and gentle stops, which are ideal for packaging, assembly, and material handling where repeatable indexing is essential. The available mounting options and standard fittings simplify integration into compact automation cells, helping to maintain throughput while protecting downstream equipment from shocks.
The data does not list explicit certifications. For regulatory compliance, confirm CE marking where applicable and verify IP protection and SIL considerations with your procurement or compliance team. Since the actuator uses standard pneumatic components and corrosion-resistant materials, it typically aligns with common industrial practices, but regional requirements may vary.
A dedicated service kit is available: QM/162040/00, designed for M/162000 series with 40 mm bore. This supports periodic maintenance and rebuilds. For sensing and control integration, compatible switches such as M/50/LSU/5V can be employed. Regular maintenance, including replacement of seals and cushions, helps sustain performance and extend service life in demanding automation environments.
