FAQs
The RM/92016/N4/5 uses a 16 mm bore and M5 port, enabling straightforward mounting to standard compact manifolds and brackets. For reliable installation, match the mounting pattern to the cylinder body, secure fittings with appropriate torque, and leverage the magnetic piston for easy sensor placement. Ensure supply pressure within 1–10 bar and temperature range of -5 to 80 °C. Refer to the datasheet for recommended fasteners and hardware compatibility.
Theoretical force is 121 N at the specified bore, with an operating pressure range of 1–10 bar and a temperature range of -5 to 80 °C. This enables reliable actuation in light to medium-duty tasks across varied environments. For peak performance, ensure the load profile stays within the cylinder’s dynamic capabilities and verify cycle rates in your application using the datasheet as a reference.
Yes, its compact length and 16 mm bore are beneficial for tight layouts, supporting repeatable positioning. However, there is no cushioning, so very high-speed applications should account for impact forces and mechanical stops. For high-cycle operations, evaluate actuation speed, mass, and deceleration requirements, and consider sensor feedback to optimize motion curves and reduce wear.
Certification requirements vary by region. Check for CE marking to satisfy European conformity and verify any region-specific IP protection or safety-related certifications as applicable to your facility. If your line requires SIL-level safety integration, confirm compatibility with your safety system and related components. Always consult the latest datasheet and local standards for confirmation.
The combination of long-life seals and a non-corrodible build reduces maintenance frequency and downtime, improving line throughput. The magnetic piston simplifies sensor integration, speeding commissioning and reducing fault diagnostics. Space savings lower machine footprint and potentially enable higher overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) in automation cells, contributing to a favorable total cost of ownership over the lifecycle.
