Norgren Pneumatic Cylinder RM/93012/M/5 - Magnetic
Part Number: RM/93012/M/5
Quick Summary
Norgren Pneumatic Cylinder RM/93012/M/5 provides compact actuation for precision automation in packaging and assembly lines. This single-acting cylinder tackles space constraints without sacrificing stroke performance, enabling tighter machine footprints. Typical challenges include bulky actuators that disrupt workflow and higher maintenance costs. To address this, the RM/93012/M/5 features a short overall length, low-friction long-life seals, and a fully non-corrodible design with a magnetic piston for sensor compatibility. In addition to a broad operating range of -5 to 80 °C and 2 to 10 bar, it aligns with common automation standards. Certifications to verify include CE conformity, SIL safety considerations, and IP ratings—check the datasheet for exact ratings. The result is improved uptime, predictable actuation, and easier installation in space-limited lines.

FAQs
The RM/93012/M/5 uses a standard M5 port, which simplifies hose and fitting selection and reduces layout complexity. When planning mounting, ensure alignment with compatible clevis or end- stops and leave space for the magnetic piston to enable sensor integration. Verify thread engagement and leakage control, and consult the datasheet for recommended mounting accessories and torque guidelines to avoid binding or misalignment.
Operating pressure for this model is 2 to 10 bar (29 to 145 psi). Within this range, the cylinder delivers a theoretical force of 40 N and consistent stroke performance. Lower pressures may extend cycle times slightly, while higher pressures yield faster actuation, provided the load and speed are within design limits. Always validate actual force under your specific load and speed conditions.
The RM/93012/M/5 is part of Norgren’s RM/93000/M range, designed for compatibility with common compact mounting practices used in industrial automation. While it shares intent with ISO/VDMA standards, verify exact mounting dimensions and accessory compatibility in the provided datasheet and mounting drawings to ensure correct fit for your fixture or automated cell.
Key certifications to confirm in the datasheet include CE conformity for European markets, SIL-related safety considerations for safety-critical applications, and IP protection ratings for ingress resistance. The product data sheet published by Norgren outlines the exact ratings and any environmental or safety approvals; refer to the datasheet diagrams and notes for precise compliance details applicable to your region.
The magnetic piston enables straightforward sensor integration, reducing the need for external position feedback hardware. Combined with a low-friction, long-life seal and non-corrodible construction, you can expect longer maintenance intervals, lower replacement costs, and improved line uptime. In high-cycle applications, this translates to measurable throughput gains and lower total cost of ownership over the cylinder’s service life.
