AirTAC SAUD Series Double-Rod Cylinders

The AirTAC SAUD series is a double-rod version of the SAU profile-type cylinder. A rod exits both ends, so push and pull force are equal in both directions. The compact extruded aluminum barrel is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore. The double-rod design provides anti-rotation, and the back rod can carry a sensor cam or drive a second tool.

The series spans 6 bores: 32, 40, 50, 63, 80 and 100 mm. Rod diameter ranges from 12 mm on the 32 mm bore up to 25 mm on the 100 mm bore. Ports range from 1/8 inch to 1/2 inch with PT, G or NPT threads. Maximum standard stroke is 1000 mm for bore 32, 1200 mm for bores 40-50, and 1500 mm for bores 63-100.

Force output is symmetrical. At 0.5 MPa the force spans about 345 N on bore 32 to 3681 N on bore 100. At 0.7 MPa it spans 483 N to 5153 N. The shared design is double-acting with adjustable air cushions at both ends. The cushions decelerate the piston near stroke end but do not lock or hold position. The cylinder operates on 40 um filtered air, with a pressure range of 0.15-1.0 MPa and a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa. Operating temperature is -20 to +70 C, or up to 150 C with an option. Speed ranges from 30-800 mm/s. Seals are available in TPU, Viton H or NBR N. Add the -S magnet option for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors. Mounting options are limited to Basic, FA and LB. This is a profile/compact body and is NOT an ISO 15552 cylinder.
