Norgren RM/92040/N2/15 Pneumatic Cylinder - 754 N
Part Number: RM/92040/N2/15
Quick Summary
Norgren RM/92040/N2/15 pneumatic cylinder enables compact double-acting actuation for precise pick-and-place in automation lines. Engineers often struggle with space constraints, durability under repeated cycles, and the need for reliable maintenance in tight machines. Typical considerations include CE conformity, IP-rated ruggedness for harsh environments, and SIL‑compatible safety integration in automated lines. Designed for high-cycle production, it delivers durable operation with a magnetic piston for versatile sensing and fast feedback. In today’s cost- and space-conscious factories, this model supports reduced downtime and lower total cost of ownership. Power and signal compatibility with standard automation interfaces, plus a one-third ISO/VDMA length, streamline integration and shorten lead times across multiple projects.

The RM/92040/N2/15 combines a 40 mm bore with a 15 mm stroke for a compact footprint, enabling space savings in constrained machinery while maintaining reliable double-acting actuation for fast cycling in packaging and assembly lines. This feature directly reduces machine footprint and allows closer component spacing, improving throughput and contributing to a lower total cost of ownership in high-volume environments. The low-friction, long-life seal design and non-corrodible construction minimize wear and maintenance needs, delivering longer service intervals and reduced replacement costs; this translates to less unscheduled downtime on automated lines and steadier output. The magnetic piston supports easy sensor feedback, facilitating reliable position sensing and simpler integration with PLCs and safety circuits, which accelerates commissioning and improves fault detection in robotic pick-and-place tasks. With an anodised aluminium barrel and stainless steel piston rod, the cylinder resists harsh factory atmospheres, extending product life in dusty or humid environments and reducing replacement cycles. The unit’s G1/8 port and 1–10 bar operating range provide flexible connection options to common factory air systems, ensuring straightforward installation alongside existing manifolds and regulators. Theoretical force of 754 N delivers consistent actuation for moderate-weight loads, while the compact length—one-third of a typical ISO/VDMA model—frees space for adjacent automation hardware. The lack of internal cushioning means operators should plan for controlled starts and stops or add external cushioning for sensitive applications, a consideration easily addressed through proper stops, mounting choices, or stroke selection. Overall, this model supports reliable, high-cycle performance with minimal footprint in a wide range of industrial settings, including inline conveyors, packaging lines, and assembly cells.

FAQs
For compact installations, mount the RM/92040/N2/15 using standard sensor-ready face and rear mounting patterns compatible with common brackets. The G1/8 port simplifies plumbing to existing air rails. Ensure adequate clearance to avoid interference with the magnetic piston and to allow full stroke movement. Use proper support to prevent misalignment and verify that the operating temperature and pressure stay within the specified -5 to 80 °C and 1–10 bar ranges to preserve seal life and performance.
The cylinder provides a theoretical force of 754 N at nominal conditions, suitable for moderate load tasks such as pushing or lifting light assemblies in packaging, sorting, and small robotic pick-and-place operations. Real-world force may vary with supply pressure and friction. For peak-load scenarios, confirm dynamic requirements and consider a conservative stroke choice or the use of external cushioning if needed to manage impact and wear.
Yes, when integrated with its magnetic piston and robust seal design, the cylinder supports frequent actuations typical in packaging lines. To optimize uptime, ensure seals are compatible with the conveyed media, maintain air quality, and use proper lubrication where specified. If continuous duty is expected, plan for periodic inspection of the piston rod and seal surfaces to prevent wear-induced fluctuations in performance.
Absolutely. The magnetic piston is designed for straightforward integration with proximity sensors, Hall effect sensors, or reed switches. This enables reliable position feedback without external encoders, simplifying PLC-based control, improving repeatability, and enabling safer stop/hold positions in automated cycles.
Routine maintenance includes inspecting the magnetic piston for debris, verifying port connections, and confirming air cleanliness to protect seals. The anodised aluminium barrel and stainless steel rod provide corrosion resistance, reducing downtime in dusty or humid environments. Plan for periodic seal checks and lubrication according to your system’s duty cycle; the compact design helps minimize maintenance intervals in high-volume operations.
