The AirTAC Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF50X150-08B is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 cylinder with a Ø50mm bore, 150mm stroke and a built-in 4M210-08 5/2 solenoid valve — it switches itself from one coil signal, so no separate remote valve or extra plumbing is needed.
The AirTAC SAIF50X150-08B is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a built-in 4M210-08 5/2 solenoid valve, delivering a Cv of 0.89 and a 16.0 mm2 effective orifice. Driven by a DC24V terminal-entry coil drawing 3.0 W, it activates in 0.05 s or less. The base cylinder accepts air filtered to 40 um and features a carbon steel piston rod. Because the integrated valve operates at 0.15-0.8 MPa, this defines the practical working pressure for the assembled unit, even though the cylinder body itself rates to 1.0 MPa.
At 0.5 MPa it generates 982 N of push thrust and 825 N of pull thrust. The manifold connects to the cylinder via O8 x O5 PU tubing, meaning the 1/4" valve port differs from the cylinder's own porting. Factory-set to retract the rod when the coil is energised, the valve can be repositioned to extend-when-energised. This decentralized design eliminates remote valves and excess plumbing, requiring only a single electrical signal to drive the actuator.

The cylinder rates to 1.0 MPa but the built-in valve operates 0.15–0.8 MPa, so run the assembled SAIF at 0.15–0.8 MPa. Default: rod retracts when the coil is energised (reconfigurable to extend). Specs follow the official AirTAC SAIF datasheet. Port options: PT / G.

Sized within the valve's 0.15–0.8 MPa range. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure.

SAIF does not hold its load without air — the valve routes air, it is not a lock. For load-holding use a SAIL (lock) or BSAI (clamp-lock).
Eliminates the need for a central valve island by switching locally via the DC24V signal, drastically reducing tubing runs across large automated machinery.
Provides 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa in tight envelope spaces where mounting a separate 5/2 valve and cylinder assembly is physically impossible.
Simplifies electrical and pneumatic integration on older equipment by using a single terminal-entry coil to control the 50 mm bore actuator directly.
Choose this 50 mm bore when a 40 mm bore (628 N push at 0.5 MPa) lacks thrust or a 63 mm bore (1559 N push) is physically too large. The SAIF50X150-08B is ideal for decentralized stations where running pneumatic tubing from a distant valve island is costly or space-prohibitive. The DC24V terminal coil offers low power consumption and safe wiring, while the PT-threaded 1/4" valve port matches standard local fittings. To replace this unit, match the 50 mm bore, 150 mm stroke, 4M210-08 valve, DC24V voltage, terminal entry, PT threads, and standard carbon steel rod.
For this 150 mm stroke, ensure adequate guide support to prevent side-load wear on the cylinder seals. Note that the built-in 5/2 valve routes air but does not lock the load; if static holding is required, consider an AirTAC SAIL lock cylinder. Sensors are not included, but adding an -S magnet version enables CMSE reed or DMSE electronic switches in the side grooves.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it provides 982 N push and 825 N pull force. The integrated 4M210-08 valve operates at 0.15-0.8 MPa, which sets the practical working pressure for the assembly, despite the cylinder body rating of 1.0 MPa.
No separate pilot is needed; the 4M210 valve is internally piloted. It is a 5/2 design that holds its last position via pilot pressure, not a spring. Factory-set to retract when energised, it can be reconfigured to extend-when-energised by repositioning the valve.
