About the Airtac B52-SE Copper-Free ISO Standard Cylinder B52-SE50X100S
The B52-SE50X100S is AirTAC's copper-free (copper-prohibited) build of the SE50X100S, a double-acting single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder. The square extruded aluminum barrel has no external tie rods, giving a compact, corrosion-resistant body that mounts flush in tight machine frames. With a 50 mm bore, it delivers 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, making it a solid mid-range actuator for assembly equipment.
The B52- prefix designates a version where copper and copper alloys are not permitted in the build, suited for ammonia systems and certain battery, electronics, and chemical plants. The exact material substitutions should be confirmed with us for your specific line. This unit includes the -S magnet for use with CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors, and the adjustable air cushion at both ends softens end-of-stroke impacts.

Where the Airtac B52-SE Copper-Free ISO Standard Cylinder B52-SE50X100S Is Used
Battery Cell Crimping
In battery tab welding and cell crimping stations, the 982 N push at 0.5 MPa provides controlled force for terminal forming. The copper-free build suits facilities where copper contamination must be avoided in the production environment.
Ammonia Refrigeration Valve Actuation
For actuating isolation valves in ammonia-based industrial refrigeration, the copper-free construction prevents galvanic corrosion that copper alloys would cause. The 100 mm stroke matches standard valve travel, and the PT1/4 ports connect to pneumatic control lines.
Packaging Line Stop Gates
On carton conveyor diverters, this cylinder extends a stop gate to hold products for barcode scanning. The 825 N retract force at 0.5 MPa pulls the gate back quickly, while the adjustable cushion prevents hard stops at 800 mm/s cycle speeds.
Is the Airtac B52-SE Copper-Free ISO Standard Cylinder B52-SE50X100S the Right Cylinder?
At 50 mm bore, step down to the 40 mm bore (628 N push at 0.5 MPa) if your load is under 60% of this unit's capacity. Step up to the 63 mm bore (1559 N push at 0.5 MPa) when you need roughly 60% more force without changing port size from PT1/4 to PT3/8. The 100 mm stroke suits short-travel indexing and clamping; for longer unsupported strokes, add an external guide to protect the M16x1.5 rod from side-load bending.
This cylinder is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, so it drops into existing mounts designed for other ISO 15552 cylinders. The PT1/4 ports match common valve manifolds in this force class. Remember, the adjustable cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end - it does not hold a load when air pressure is removed, so use a BSE rod-lock version or external brake if position holding is required.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for CMSE/DMSE sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (LB/FA/FB/CA/CB/CR/TC/FTC/TCM1/TCM2).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac B52-SE Copper-Free ISO Standard Cylinder B52-SE50X100S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, push force is 982 N and pull is 825 N. At 0.7 MPa, push rises to 1374 N. The maximum push is 200 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Since it is single-rod, the rod reduces the effective piston area on retract, so push always exceeds pull.
B52- marks the copper-free (copper-prohibited) version of the SE50X100S, intended for lines where copper alloys are not allowed, such as ammonia systems or certain chemical plants. All dimensions, port sizes (PT1/4), and the ISO 15552 mounting interface are identical to the standard SE50X100S, so it remains a drop-in replacement. The specific material substitutions for copper parts are not published in our data - please confirm the exact grades with us before ordering for your application.
