Designed around ISO 15552 and a compact 40 mm bore, the RA/803040/M/50 simplifies integration with existing cylinder manifolds and bracket kits. This standardization translates to reduced installation time and safer, more predictable performance on automated lines. The polyurethane seals provide low friction operation and extended service life, delivering measurable maintenance savings and stable cycle times in high-demand applications. Adjustable cushioning minimizes end-of-stroke impact, protecting equipment and reducing vibration-induced wear in metal panels and fixtures, which translates to longer component life and fewer unplanned stoppages. The magnetic piston rod enables reliable, switchable sensing with options for bracket-mounted or inline switches, streamlining automation wiring and diagnostics. A G1/4 port and compatible Pneufit C fittings ensure straightforward plumbing and fast field configurations, supporting rapid line changes and scalable automation across multiple workstations.

FAQs

RA/803040/M/50 is built to ISO 15552 dimensional standards, enabling straightforward mounting with standard end-mittings and common bracket kits. For installation, pair the 40 mm bore cylinder with compatible rear clevis or piston rod mounts (e.g., QA/8040 series) and use the G1/4 port fittings (Pneufit C) to simplify tubing runs. This compatibility minimizes custom fabrication and reduces commissioning time on multi-station lines.
The cylinder provides a theoretical force of 528 N, suitable for reliable clamping and push/pull actions in medium-load automation tasks. In high-cycle applications, the combination of a 40 mm bore and adjustable cushioning helps maintain repeatable stroke and reduced end-of-stroke impact, improving cycle times, reducing vibration, and extending seal life under continuous operation.
Operating temperature ranges from -20 to 80 °C (-4 to 176 °F), which covers many industrial environments, including standard factory floors and machine enclosures. In applications approaching the upper limit, ensure compatible lubricants and seals are specified for extended life, and consider shielding or enclosure if heat sources are nearby.
This ISOLine cylinder supports a range of switch options, including M/50 magnetically operated reed switches and solid-state switches with various cable lengths (examples: M/50/LSU/CP, M/50/EAP/5V, M/50/EAN/CP). Switch mounting brackets for the M/50 series (e.g., QM/32, QM/31/032/22) allow rear, front, or adjustable mounting. This enables reliable sensing while keeping wiring tidy and accessible for diagnostics.
The RA/803040/M/50 offers multiple mounting options (rear clevis QA/8040/23, front clevis QM/8040/25, and various swivel or foot mounts). Paired with Pneufit C push-in fittings (C02250628) and 6 mm tubing options, the setup reduces assembly time, simplifies leak checks, and supports quick line changes, contributing to lower maintenance costs and improved uptime.
