Feature → Business Impact → Application: The RM/92040/M/240 offers a 40 mm bore and 240 mm stroke in a compact form, freeing valuable space on tight automation lines and enabling shorter machine footprints so you can fit more function into the same footprint. This translates to lower capital expenditure per station and easier retrofit on existing production lines where layout constraints are critical. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Low friction, long-life seals reduce wear and energy consumption, delivering higher cycle reliability and reduced maintenance costs. Use this in high-cycle pick-and-place and assembly operations to achieve predictable performance and longer service intervals, especially where uptime directly influences throughput. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Fully non-corrodible construction and stainless steel piston rod extend life in challenging environments with exposure to moisture or aggressive air, cutting replacement costs and downtime in packaging, food & beverage, or chemical processing lines. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Magnetic piston enables straightforward integration with sensing and control systems, improving feedback accuracy and simplifying maintenance, which is beneficial for closed-loop control in automated handling and robotic integrations. Feature → Business Impact → Application: 1–10 bar operating range and G1/8 port size support standard compressed-air systems, enabling rapid installation with minimal adaptation while RM/92000/M family compatibility helps commonize components across multiple machines. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The design’s balance of durability and compact form supports cost reduction through smaller actuation assemblies and easier serviceability, a priority in OEM campaigns targeting high-specification automation lines.

FAQs
RM/92040/M/240 is a 40 mm bore, double-acting cylinder designed for standard mounting patterns used by Norgren 40 mm series. Typical options include front, rear, and centerline mounting with compatible clevis and foot brackets. For optimal performance, align mounting to minimize side loads, verify port orientation matches your control layout, and select robust hardware to withstand repetitive cycling in compact automation cells.
The cylinder operates from 1 to 10 bar (14 to 145 psi) and tolerates temperatures from -5 to 80 °C (23 to 176 °F). This range supports most standard plant air systems and common industrial environments, ensuring reliable actuation across typical production cycles without excessive cooling or pre-heating requirements.
Yes. The design features low-friction, long-life seals and a magnetic piston that supports precise sensing, reducing wear and enabling consistent cycle times under high-duty conditions. Its corrosion-resistant barrel and stainless steel piston rod further extend service life in demanding environments, lowering maintenance intervals and improving line throughput.
RM/92040/M/240 is engineered to be roughly one-third the basic length of a corresponding ISO/VDMA cylinder, delivering a significant space saving without compromising stroke or force. This makes it particularly advantageous for compact automation lines and machines where vertical or horizontal clearance is limited.
To maximize life, keep the supply air clean and dry, operate within the 1–10 bar range, and routinely inspect the magnetic piston and rod seals for wear. Because the unit has no cushioning, ensure mechanical stops or external cushioning are used where needed to prevent hard impacts. Regularly verify port integrity and lubricate only as recommended by the manufacturer.
