FAQs
RT/57232/MC/10 uses an Rc1/8 port and follows Roundline/ISO mounting conventions, enabling straightforward integration with standard pneumatic manifolds and ISO/VDMA-compatible mounting patterns. The 32 mm diameter and 10 mm stroke fit compact automation cells, while the magnetic piston supports easy position sensing for reliable control.
The cylinder delivers a theoretical force of 482 N, appropriate for typical pick-and-place and clamping tasks. It operates from 1 to 10 bar (15 to 145 psi) and is rated for temperatures from -10 to 80 °C, making it suitable for a wide range of industrial environments with standard compressed air supplies.
Yes, the Roundline design supports compact actuation with predictable motion. Buffer cushioning reduces impact during high-speed cycles, extending seal life and reducing noise. For peak speed requirements, verify stroke, travel, and control strategy in your specific automation layout and consider external guidance or dampening if necessary.
Certification details are not provided in the given data. For regulatory compliance such as CE or IP ratings, and any SIL considerations, please consult the official Norgren datasheet or contact the supplier for the precise certification scope and versioning applicable to your region and application.
The magnetic piston enables straightforward, non-contact sensing for position feedback, reducing wiring complexity and enabling easier integration with PLCs and SISO control loops. Combined with corrosion-resistant stainless steel components and low-friction seals, this design supports longer service intervals, easier diagnostics, and overall better maintenance economics in automated lines.
