Norgren PRA/882040/MIB/M4/160 IVAC Cylinder - IP67
Part Number: PRA/882040/MIB/M4/160
Quick Summary
PRA/882040/MIB/M4/160 is an IVAC cylinder for high-precision double-acting actuation. Engineers often face inconsistent cycling and high air consumption, slowing lines and driving up costs. This model adds ISO 15552 compatibility and an IP67 rating to survive harsh environments, with reliable magnetic M/50 switches. Quick installation, reduced maintenance, and optimized airflow translate into lower downtime and operating costs across packaging, automotive, and manufacturing lines. That makes it easier for procurement and maintenance teams to specify a single, standard cylinder for multiple lines, while supporting scalable automation upgrades.

FAQs
Yes. The PRA/882040/MIB/M4/160 is designed to conform to ISO 15552 standards, ensuring straightforward replacement and interchangeability with existing cylinders. Users benefit from standardized mounting pitches, simplified procurement, and faster line integration across conveyors, presses, and automation cells. Some external dimensions may vary slightly, so it’s important to confirm piston rod end details during retrofit planning.
Operating pressure is 2 to 8 bar (29 to 116 psi) and operating temperature ranges from -5 to 50 °C (23 to 122 °F). These limits support a broad set of industrial environments, from standard factory floors to moderate ambient stress conditions. For high-cycle or washdown scenarios, ensure adequate ventilation and prevent exposure to conditions outside this specification.
Ideal for high-speed packaging, pick-and-place, and light-to-medium actuation tasks where cycle precision matters. The 40 mm bore and 160 mm stroke deliver a compact yet capable actuator footprint, while integrated speed control and cushioning optimize cycle times and reduce mechanical wear. This makes it well-suited for OEM lines, conveyors, and assembly cells requiring reliable, repeatable motion.
IP67 protection ensures protection against dust ingress and immersion exposure, reducing contamination risk and deterioration from washdown or outdoor conditions. Combined with corrosion-resistant materials like an anodised aluminium barrel and stainless steel piston rod, this configuration supports higher uptime and longer service intervals in challenging environments where standard cylinders may fail earlier.
Recommended fittings include Pneufit C push-in fittings (6 mm with G1/4 adapters) and compatible tubing such as PA2-0006025C (25 m, 6 mm/4 mm). The unit also supports integrated M/50 magnetic switches for straightforward sensing. For rapid commissioning, use the single air and electrical connection design to minimize wiring and simplify the initial setup.
