Norgren RM/92040/M/5 Pneumatic Cylinder - Magnetic Piston
Part Number: RM/92040/M/5
Quick Summary
Norgren RM/92040/M/5 is a compact double-acting pneumatic cylinder for precise linear actuation in automation and packaging. Engineers often contend with restricted spaces, high friction, and corrosion in harsh environments, which can throttle cycle times and increase maintenance. This model is designed with a low-friction, long-life seal design, a fully non-corrodible specification, and a magnetic piston to simplify sensing and integration. Designed for CE-compliant control systems, with optional IP-rated housings and SIL-ready sensing options, it keeps footprint down while boosting reliability. Its compact form factor, ISO/VDMA compatibility, and standard Pneufit C fittings support fast, predictable installations and improved overall equipment effectiveness on automated lines.

FAQs
To install RM/92040/M/5, select a compatible 40 mm bore mounting (e.g., QM/90040/22 for BG front/rear flange). Attach the cylinder using the 40 mm bore stud or bolt pattern, then connect the G1/8 port with Pneufit C fittings (C0K510618, C02470618, or C02250618). Use nut-style mounting (M/P1501/60) for rod-end alignment, and verify piston travel with the magnetic sensor option. Ensure proper alignment to minimize side loads and confirm the mounting is rigid to prevent misalignment during acceleration.
Key specs include a 40 mm bore, 5 mm stroke, G1/8 port size, and a 1–10 bar operating pressure range (14–145 psi). The cylinder is double-acting with no cushioning and features a magnetic piston. Theoretical force is about 754 N. Operating temperature ranges from -5 to 80 °C, enabling operation in varied environments while maintaining performance and repeatability in automated tasks.
Yes. Its compact 40 mm bore, 5 mm stroke, and magnetic piston support precise, repeatable short-stroke actuation ideal for pick-and-place and clamping in packaging lines. The low-friction seals reduce wear during high-cycle operation, while the stainless steel piston rod and anodised barrel offer durability in damp or mildly corrosive environments. Compatibility with standard fittings and mounts speeds integration.
The RM/92040/M/5 is designed for CE-compliant control systems, with available options for IP-rated housings and SIL-ready sensing configurations. While specific ratings may vary by configuration, the product line supports safety and compliance requirements typical in industrial automation, making it suitable for regulated manufacturing environments when paired with appropriate peripherals.
Thanks to a low-friction seal design and a non-corrodible aluminium barrel with a stainless steel piston rod, RM/92040/M/5 offers extended service life and reduced maintenance. For high-cycle applications, expect longer service intervals between audits, with routine inspection of ports, fittings, and mating hardware. The magnetic piston also simplifies sensor integration, reducing downtime during diagnostics.
