Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X225S
The AirTAC Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X225S is a genuine double acting ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 225mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. Its short compact envelope saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder.

About the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X225S
This AirTAC ACE100X225S is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a 100 mm bore and 225 mm stroke, delivering 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. Its hard-anodized aluminium body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits into tight machine frames and guarding where a full-length cylinder simply will not go.
The optional -S magnet is fitted on this model, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be mounted for position sensing. With a theoretical max force of 800.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa, a practical rule is to plan for about 240 kg of safe vertical lift at 0.5 MPa, giving you a 2:1 margin for real-world loads.

Where the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X225S Is Used
Fixture Clamping
Use in a CNC machining fixture to clamp a 200 kg aluminum housing during drilling and tapping. The 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa holds the part securely, and the short body fits under the worktable.
Conveyor Stop Gate
Mount on a packaging line to stop and release cartons weighing up to 50 kg. The 225 mm stroke provides ample reach, and the optional -S magnet lets a CMSE switch confirm the gate position for PLC logic.
Pallet Lift Assist
In a manual palletizing station, this cylinder can lift a 200 kg load vertically with a 2:1 safety margin at 0.5 MPa. Its compact body allows installation between conveyor rollers without raising the line height.
Is the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X225S the Right Cylinder?
For lighter duty in the same bore family, the ACE80X225S offers 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the ACE125X225S gives 6136 N push. At 0.5 MPa, this cylinder can safely handle about 240 kg of vertical work, but remember it does not hold position if air pressure is lost - use a rod lock or pilot check valve for load holding. The 1/4" port suits standard shop air, and the female M12x1.75 rod thread accepts common attachments.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Short stroke fits the compact body
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G)
- ✓ Add -S if you need the magnet for sensors
- ✓ Rod type (female / male B) & mount (FA/LB/CA)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Compact body: keep the stroke short and avoid side load on the rod.
- check Do not dismantle the threaded front/back covers.
- check Keep speed within the rated range; the TPU bumper absorbs stroke-end energy.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE100X225S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, push force is 3927 N and pull is 3769.9 N. At 0.7 MPa, push is 5497.8 N and pull is 5277.9 N. Theoretical maximum force is 800.9 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).
Yes, the S in the model code means the optional -S magnet is fitted. This allows you to mount CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches for position detection. The magnet is not standard on all ACE cylinders - it must be ordered with the -S code. The cylinder has a fixed TPU bumper at both ends and operates at speeds from 30 to 500 mm/s.
