FAQs
The RM/92016/M/40 uses a 16 mm bore with M5 port connections and is compatible with Pneufit C push-in fittings. For installation, connect via the M5 ports to a pressure line sized for 1–10 bar, route using compatible PA tubing, and secure the cylinder with the available mountings (stud/adaptor, flange, or clevis options). Use the M/P72487B switch bracket and M/50 reed switch if sensor feedback is required. Always consult the datasheet for exact torque specs and mounting recommendations to ensure proper alignment and sealing.
The theoretical force for this cylinder is 121 N, with an operating pressure range of 1 to 10 bar (14 to 145 psi). It has a -5 to 80 °C operational envelope, making it suitable for a variety of industrial environments. The 16 mm bore with a 40 mm stroke provides a compact yet predictable actuation profile for small-scale automation tasks, including indexing and assembly operations.
Yes, its low-friction, long-life seal design minimizes wear and maintenance in high-cycle use. The magnetic piston enables easy integration with reed switches for reliable position sensing, supporting repeatable precision in pick-and-place and packaging applications. For best results, pair with compatible fittings and mountings to reduce backlash and vibration in continuous cycles.
Consult the datasheet for exact CE conformity and any IP or SIL-related details applicable to your region and application. While the RM/92016/M/40 line commonly aligns with standard industrial practice, certification statuses can vary by configuration. Always verify current ratings via the official datasheet (linked in product downloads) before committing to a specification or integration in a regulated environment.
Key ROI drivers include the long-life seals and corrosion-resistant materials (anodised barrel and stainless steel rod) that reduce downtime. Regular checks should focus on sensor alignment (magnetic piston), port integrity, and mounting stability. By ensuring proper installation and sensor feedback, you can sustain consistent actuation force, minimize leaks, and lower total cost of ownership over the cylinder’s life cycle.
