Norgren M/162040/MI/90 Rotary actuator - 90° rotation
Part Number: M/162040/MI/90
Quick Summary
Rotary rack and pinion actuator Norgren M/162040/MI/90 delivers precise 90-degree motion for compact automation in production lines. Engineers often grapple with mounting flexibility and flush-switch integration during retrofits, which can drive up setup time and risk misalignment. Designed with CE marking and SIL-ready safety compatibility, and built from anodised aluminium for durability, it meets key industry safety and quality expectations. These capabilities translate into faster installation, reduced downtime, and safer, more repeatable cycles. In addition to the primary pneumatic role, this model integrates well with standard fittings and control systems, offering a reliable option for IMI Norgren customers seeking scalable automation solutions.

FAQs
To install the M/162040/MI/90 with mounting options, select the appropriate base: BG front/rear flange (40 mm bore), A front or rear stud mounting (32/40 mm bore), or C foot mounting (40 mm bore). Align the actuator with the load, secure with the chosen mounts, connect the G1/4 Port using Pneufit C fittings, and verify the adjustable cushioning is set for the application.
Key specs include a 40 mm cylinder bore, 13.8 Nm torque, 90° rotation, double-acting operation, G1/4 port size, and adjustable cushioning. It operates on compressed air at 1–10 bar and withstands temperatures from -5 to 80 °C, making it suitable for typical shop-floor automation environments.
Yes, the combination of 13.8 Nm torque, 90° rotation, and adjustable cushioning supports accurate, repeatable placements with controlled impact. Its compact 40 mm bore enables tight layouts, while the double-acting design provides consistent thrust for multiple cycles, reducing cycle times and improving line throughput on packaging and transfer tasks.
Service accessibility is supported by QM/162040/00 service kits for M/162000, 40 mm variants, ensuring quick maintenance and parts replacement. Additional components include M/50 reed switches and other standard fittings, enabling straightforward upgrades and ongoing reliability without extended downtime.
Pneufit C fittings (for example C02250628, C02470628, C0K510628) simplify tubing connections with push-in simplicity and reliable sealing. This reduces installation time, minimizes leakage risk, and makes field maintenance easier, especially in compact or crowded control panels where space is at a premium.
