Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE40X200
The AirTAC Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE40X200 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 cylinder with an integrated spring-applied, air-released ROD LOCK. If air is cut or an E-stop is hit, the collet clamps the Ø16mm rod and holds up to 900 N in either direction — no drift. Ø40mm bore, 200mm stroke, PT1/4 cylinder ports, G1/8 lock-release port.

About the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE40X200
The AirTAC BSE40X200 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with an integrated spring-applied, air-released rod lock. It delivers 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, while the clamping collet provides a 900 N bidirectional static hold with zero live air.
Operating pressure is capped at 0.7 MPa. The lock uses a separate G1/8 release port, meaning the air cushion never acts as the holding device. This SKU has no magnet, so position sensing is not available.
Rod Lock — 900 N Static Holding (Ø40mm)
A spring clamps the collet onto the rod, so the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE40X200 holds its position in both directions when air is lost, exhausted or an E-stop trips. Apply 0.15–0.7 MPa to the G1/8 release port to unlock. Engage the lock only after the rod has stopped (it is not a dynamic brake), and release only when the pressures on both sides of the piston are balanced. Allow at least 0.5 s for full release before moving.

Theoretical Output Force (Ø40mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 628 N | 528 N |
| 0.7 MPa (max) | 880 N | — |
| Max drive (@0.7 MPa) | 90 kgf | |
Drive force is separate from the 900 N static holding force of the lock. BSE operates up to 0.7 MPa. Size with a safety margin.

Where the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE40X200 Is Used
Vertical Pneumatic Lift
Holds a 900 N vertical lift gate steady. The spring collet clamps automatically if air pressure drops, preventing sudden drops.
Tooling Clamp
Secures a machining fixture with 628 N push force. The fail-safe lock keeps the clamp engaged during an E-stop.
Pallet Stopper
Blocks pallets on a conveyor using 528 N pull force. The 900 N rod lock ensures the stopper stays put on air loss.
Is the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE40X200 the Right Cylinder?
Verify your suspended load needs 900 N or less of holding force. If you need less drive, step down to the 32 mm bore (402 N push @0.5 MPa, 600 N hold). If you need more hold, step up to the 50 mm bore (982 N push @0.5 MPa, 1400 N hold). Replace using 40 mm bore, 200 mm stroke, PT1/4 port, and standard mounting.
Engage the lock only after the rod stops. Release it only when piston pressures are balanced, allowing at least 0.5 s before moving. SE mounting accessories fit except FTC.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Load to hold ≤ 900 N?
- ✓ Fail-safe hold on air loss / E-stop needed
- ✓ Lock engaged only when stopped
- ✓ G1/8 release-air line available
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for CMSE/DMSE sensors?
Installation & Safety Notes
- check Engage the lock only after the rod has stopped — not as a dynamic brake.
- check Release only when both piston sides are pressure-balanced.
- check Allow ≥0.5 s for full release before commanding motion.
- check Feed the G1/8 release port with 0.15–0.7 MPa clean air.
- check Add safety-rated controls for man-rated / overhead loads.
- check Use SE mounting accessories (FTC excepted).
Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE40X200 FAQ
Drive forces are 628 N push and 528 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 879 N push at 0.7 MPa, max 90 kgf drive. The static holding force of the rod lock is 900 N.
It is spring-applied and fail-safe. If air is lost, the collet clamps the rod bidirectionally, holding up to 900 N. Supply 0.15-0.7 MPa to the G1/8 release port to unlock.
