Norgren RM/92040/N2/5 Pneumatic Cylinder - Magnetic
Part Number: RM/92040/N2/5
Quick Summary
RM/92040/N2/5 is a compact pneumatic cylinder designed for precise linear actuation in automation and pick-and-place lines. Engineers often battle limited space and downtime, and this model delivers one-third the length of a typical ISO/VDMA cylinder to ease installation and reduce lifecycle costs. While certification details vary by market, CE marking and SIL- or IP-rated controls are commonly required in industrial environments to ensure safe operation. With a magnetic piston for easy sensing, plus a stainless steel rod and anodised aluminium barrel, the device combines reliability with straightforward integration, enabling faster line setups, lower maintenance, and predictable performance.

Compact footprint and short length reduce machine envelope and wiring complexity. This translates to faster installation, easier retrofit projects, and more flexible automation cells, particularly in packaging and assembly lines. The design enables significant space savings without compromising stroke or force, supporting higher density layouts and scalable lines. The 40 mm bore paired with a 5 mm stroke provides precise positioning for small parts, while minimising actuator footprint. Low-friction, long-life seals extend service intervals and lower total cost of ownership by reducing maintenance downtime and consumables. Fully non-corrodible construction, including an anodised aluminium barrel and stainless steel piston rod, improves durability in harsh factory environments and supports long life in humid or dusty applications. The standard magnetic piston enables straightforward integration with sensors for position feedback and control loops, enabling reliable automation with PLCs and valves. The 1–10 bar operating range and G1/8 port ensure compatibility with common pneumatic systems and standard fittings, simplifying installation and stock management. No cushioning improves response times in high-speed cycles, but control strategies such as external damping or sequence control are recommended to mitigate impact. This RM/92040/N2/5 is designed to align with the RM/92000/M range, ensuring compatibility across product families and spare-parts planning. In real-world automation, the combination of compact size, durable materials, and sensor-ready capability translates to faster line changeovers, reduced downtime, and predictable performance in high-demand environments.

FAQs
The RM/92040/N2/5 uses a G1/8 port and a 40 mm bore, which aligns with common pneumatic manifolds and fittings. Ensure correct alignment with your mounting brackets, secure the cylinder using appropriate end plates, and connect the G1/8 inline fittings to your valve block. For best results, verify port threads and sealants compatible with your system pressure (1–10 bar) and confirm sensor clearance for the magnetic piston.
Operating pressure ranges from 1 to 10 bar (14–145 psi). The unit delivers a theoretical force of 754 N at rated conditions, enabling reliable actuation for small payloads. In practice, performance will depend on system dynamics, cushioning, and valve response; pairing with proper cushioning or external damping can optimize lifecycle and reduce impact loads during cycling.
Yes. The 40 mm bore, 5 mm stroke, and compact length are ideal for tight-pack environments. The magnetic piston supports sensor-based positioning for precise cycle control, while the stainless steel rod and anodised barrel provide durability against dust and humidity—common in packaging applications. Use with a compatible sensing solution to achieve reliable feedback for high-speed pick-and-place operations.
Certification details can vary by market. Consult the datasheet and regional compliance guides for CE, IP, SIL considerations relevant to your application. The product’s rugged construction supports common industrial standards, and your procurement team should verify applicable certifications with the supplier for your region and industry requirements.
The RM/92040/N2/5 offers space savings, reduced maintenance due to low-friction seals and non-corrodible materials, and sensor-ready operation for streamlined control. These factors translate into faster changeovers, lower downtime, and predictable performance, which collectively improve overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) and reduce lifecycle costs in automated lines.
