FAQs

What is the theoretical force at 6 bar?

The theoretical advancing force at 6 bar is 1178 N.

What type of cushioning does this cylinder have?

It features self-adjusting pneumatic end-position cushioning.

Does this cylinder come with proximity sensors?

No, the cylinder is compatible with proximity sensors, but they are not included and must be purchased separately.

What standard does this cylinder adhere to?

It is built to ISO 21287 standards.

What is the benefit of the magnetic piston?

The magnetic piston enables reliable position detection when used with compatible proximity sensors, essential for automation feedback.

Can this cylinder handle side loads?

Yes, the guide rod and yoke plate design enhances load capacity and helps prevent piston rod rotation, improving its ability to handle moderate side loads.

What is the stroke length of this cylinder?

The stroke length is 15 mm.

Troubleshooting

Cylinder not extending or retracting

Check air supply pressure and connections. Ensure directional control valve is functioning correctly. Verify no blockages in air lines.

Position sensor not detecting piston

Confirm the correct type of sensor is used and is compatible with the magnetic piston. Check sensor wiring and alignment. Ensure the sensor is within its detection range.

Abnormal noise or vibration

Verify end-position cushioning is engaged and functioning. Check for excessive side loading or misalignment. Ensure operating pressure is within specified limits.

Air leaks detected

Inspect all pneumatic connections and seals for damage or improper fit. Check cylinder seals for wear. Tighten fittings securely.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Compact design saves valuable space in automated systems.
  • Integrated magnetic piston simplifies integration with proximity sensors.
  • Self-adjusting cushioning improves operational efficiency and reduces maintenance.
  • Robust construction offers high load capacity and durability.
  • Adherence to ISO 21287 standard ensures compatibility with other components.

Cons

  • Requires specific proximity sensors for position feedback, adding to system cost.
  • Limited stroke length may not be suitable for all applications.
  • Theoretical force calculation needs to account for friction and pressure variations.
  • Advanced features may require more complex control systems.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Mounting: Securely mount the cylinder according to application requirements, ensuring proper alignment.
  2. Pneumatic Connections: Connect compressed air lines to the appropriate ports for extension and retraction. Ensure proper sealing to prevent leaks.
  3. Sensor Integration: Mount compatible proximity sensors according to their specifications and the cylinder's design to detect the magnetic piston's position.
  4. Control System: Connect the air supply and sensor outputs to your control system (e.g., PLC).

Compatibility:

  • Standards: Designed to ISO 21287, ensuring compatibility with other ISO 21287 standard components.
  • Sensors: Requires specific proximity sensors (not included) that are compatible with the magnetic piston for position sensing.
  • Pneumatic Fittings: Use appropriate fittings for pneumatic connections based on port sizes.

Care:

  • Air Supply: Ensure a clean, dry, and lubricated compressed air supply is used as per Festo recommendations to maintain performance and longevity.
  • Cleaning: Wipe down the exterior with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents.
  • Inspection: Periodically check for air leaks, signs of wear, or damage. Ensure sensor alignment remains correct.
