Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF50X160-06A
The AirTAC Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF50X160-06A is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 cylinder with a Ø50mm bore, 160mm stroke and a built-in 4M210-06 5/2 solenoid valve — it switches itself from one coil signal, so no separate remote valve or extra plumbing is needed.

About the Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF50X160-06A
The AirTAC SAIF50X160-06A is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with an integrated 4M210-06 5/2 solenoid valve, delivering a Cv of 0.78 and a 14.0 mm2 effective orifice. Driven by an AC220V terminal entry coil consuming 3.5 VA, it activates in 0.05 s or less. Because the cylinder body rates to 1.0 MPa but the internal pilot valve operates at 0.15-0.8 MPa, the practical working range for this assembled unit is 0.15-0.8 MPa. The 50 mm bore generates 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, utilizing a carbon steel piston rod and PT1/4 cylinder ports.
By mounting the valve directly via a manifold block and short PU tubing (O8 x O5), this unit switches itself from one coil signal, eliminating remote plumbing and panel space. The factory setting retracts the rod when the coil is energised, but you can reposition the valve to extend-when-energised. This decentralized design is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, though the manifold adds envelope beyond the bare cylinder.

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.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø50mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 982 N | 825 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1374 N | — |
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).
Where the Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF50X160-06A Is Used
Decentralized Automation
Ideal for large machines with decentralized stations, cutting panel space and eliminating long valve tubing runs.
Compact Assembly Lines
Fits space-tight machinery where running separate remote valve plumbing is costly or physically impossible.
Retrofitting Equipment
Perfect for upgrading existing ISO 15552 setups by adding self-switching logic without external valve banks.
Is the Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF50X160-06A the Right Choice?
Choose this 50 mm bore when you need 982 N push force at 0.5 MPa; step down to a 40 mm bore for 628 N, or up to a 63 mm bore for 1559 N if your payload requires more thrust. A self-valved SAIF50X160-06A beats a separate cylinder plus remote valve in tight layouts, as it slashes tubing runs and wiring complexity across decentralized stations. Select this AC220V terminal connection for standard factory power grids. Note that the 5/2 valve routes air but does not lock the load—use SAIL for pneumatic locking or BSAI for clamp-holding. For exact replacement, match the 50 mm bore, 160 mm stroke, 06 valve port, AC220V voltage, terminal entry, PT thread, and no magnet (-S).
Quick checklist
- ✓ Force at 0.15–0.8 MPa
- ✓ Coil voltage matches panel
- ✓ Terminal vs grommet entry
- ✓ Retract- or extend-when-energised
- ✓ Load-holding → SAIL / BSAI
Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF50X160-06A FAQ
The 50 mm bore generates 982 N push force at 0.5 MPa and 1767 N at 0.9 MPa. The built-in 4M210-06 valve has a 14.0 mm2 effective area (Cv 0.78) and a maximum frequency of 5 cycles per second.
No separate remote valve is needed. The integrated 5/2 solenoid valve holds its position via internal pilot, not a spring. By default, the rod retracts when the AC220V coil is energised, but you can reposition the valve to extend-when-energised.
