FAQs
The cylinder features a 32 mm bore, 80 mm stroke, and Rc1/8 port, aligning with Roundline mounting footprints. It supports standard double-acting actuation with robust end caps and mounting surfaces, making it straightforward to replace older ISO/VDMA cylinders in existing lines. Verify exact mounting accessory compatibility against the datasheet for your specific schematic and enclosure needs.
Key specs include a 32 mm bore, 80 mm stroke, theoretical force of 482 N, operating temperature range from -10 to 80 °C, and operating pressure 1 to 10 bar. It uses a magnetic piston, buffer cushioning, and stainless steel barrel/rod, with Rc1/8 porting, enabling reliable actuation across typical automation tasks.
Yes. The Roundline design offers a compact footprint and space savings, while buffer cushioning reduces shock at end-of-stroke, supporting higher cycle rates with less vibration. The stainless steel components provide durability in repetitive operations, and the magnetic piston supports sensing for closed-loop control in fast indexing applications.
Certification details are not listed in the provided data. In practice, Norgren products typically support common industrial standards such as CE conformity and environment-specific variants. Confirm current certification status and IP rating options directly from the datasheet or supplier to ensure compliance for your installation.
The combination of a stainless steel barrel and rod, magnetic piston, and buffer cushioning contributes to extended seal life and smoother operation, reducing downtime and corrective maintenance. The 20% space reduction also enables higher system density and potential cost savings on enclosure real estate and installation time, improving overall return on investment in automation projects.
