M521 – Block cylinder double-acting aluminum housing, with pipe thread connection
Order example for standard configuration
Area of use
Block cylinders with position monitor are used with time- or cycle-bound clamping and releasing cycles and in automated systems.
Description
The query for the position of the cylinder piston is done via electronic magnetic sensors, which capture the magnetic field of the piston. The switches can be freely adjusted b moving along the grooves.
Features
- Strokes from 20 to 100 mm
- Compact design
- max. operating pressure 350 bar
- Switching points easily adjustable
- 5 piston stages from 25 to 63 mm
- Pistons: Case hardened steel
- Housing: Aluminum, anodized
Important Instructions
Uncontrollable pressure surges and vibrations can occur during operation of cutting and punching tools, which can cause a drop in strength for aluminum. Therefore block cylinders with aluminum housings are not suitable for this purpose.
The magnetic field of the piston can be influenced by steel (adjacent steel parts, chips, etc.) If necessary a cover for the magnetic sensors must be provided.
