Norgren RM/92040/M/160 Pneumatic Cylinder - Magnetic Piston
Part Number: RM/92040/M/160
Quick Summary
Norgren RM/92040/M/160 is a compact pneumatic cylinder designed for precise, high-speed actuation in automation and packaging lines. In tight spaces, space efficiency, sealing integrity, and corrosion resistance are common pain points, and this cylinder addresses them with a 40 mm bore and a 160 mm stroke. While not all certifications are listed here, the design aligns with CE safety expectations and industry norms for IP-rated environments and SIL-ready safety interfaces. The magnetic piston, non-corrodible aluminium body, and stainless steel rod deliver durability across harsh temperatures, while the operating range of 1–10 bar supports flexible system design. Together with robust sensing compatibility and low maintenance, it helps reduce downtime and total cost of ownership on high-cycle lines.

FAQs
Ensure the actuator is mounted with appropriate brackets for a rigid, vibration-free fit. Connect the air supply to the G1/8 port using clean, dry compressed air within 1–10 bar, then verify correct piston travel range and end-of-stroke positioning. Use magnetic sensors aligned with the piston to enable reliable position feedback in control systems.
Best for high-speed, compact linear actuation in packaging, pick-and-place, and small-assembly tasks where space is limited. The 40 mm bore and 160 mm stroke offer strong reach in tight spaces, while the magnetic piston supports straightforward sensing for PLC or robot interfaces.
Yes. The cylinder uses a magnetic piston, enabling straightforward integration with non-contact sensors and position feedback devices. This simplifies closed-loop control in automation lines and reduces the need for additional sensing hardware.
The unit operates from -5 to 80 °C and supports 1 to 10 bar air pressure. This range accommodates many industrial environments, from ambient manufacturing floors to moderate washdown zones, while maintaining performance.
With no cushioning and a robust, non-corrodible build, maintenance focuses on air quality and periodic inspection of the rod seal and hardware. Regularly check for leaks, ensure the air supply is clean and dry, and inspect mounting and fasteners to maintain alignment and repeatable actuation.
