Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF100X500S-10A
The AirTAC Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF100X500S-10A is a genuine double-acting profile-type cylinder with a Ø100mm bore, 500mm stroke and a built-in 4M310-10 5/2 solenoid valve — it switches itself from one coil signal, so no separate remote valve or extra plumbing is needed.

About the Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF100X500S-10A
The SAUF100X500S-10A is a double-acting profile cylinder with a built-in AirTAC 4M310 5/2 solenoid valve on the cap. One coil signal drives the actuator, eliminating remote plumbing and saving a manifold slot. The extruded aluminum barrel is shorter than an ISO 15552 unit of the same bore. This 100mm bore version uses a 1/2" cylinder port and includes a piston magnet for position sensing.
Operating strictly within the 0.15-0.8 MPa valve window, it delivers a push force of 3927 N at 0.5 MPa. The safe working load is roughly 2356 N, and it can vertically lift about 200 kg with a 2:1 margin. The integrated valve flows 30 mm2 (Cv 1.68) through a 3/8" port, cycling up to 4 times per second. The AC220V terminal coil is IP65 rated and responds in 0.05 s or less.

The cylinder rates to 1.0 MPa but the built-in valve operates 0.15–0.8 MPa, so run the assembled SAUF at 0.15–0.8 MPa. Default: rod retracts when the coil is energised (reconfigurable to extend). Specs follow the official AirTAC SAUF datasheet. Port options: PT / G.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø100mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 3927 N | 3682 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 5498 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.

SAUF does not hold its load without air — the valve routes air, it is not a lock. For a held load, add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
Where the Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF100X500S-10A Is Used
Heavy Stamping Press
Decentralized actuation for a large press. The built-in valve handles the heavy 100mm bore directly at the cap, saving manifold space.
Pallet Diverter
One coil signal drives this 500mm stroke diverter. The integrated 4M310 valve eliminates long tubing runs to a remote island.
Vertical Lift Gate
Lifts loads up to 200kg with a 2:1 margin. The piston magnet allows CMSG sensors to confirm gate position.
Is the Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF100X500S-10A the Right Choice?
Size by checking both neighboring bores and the 0.5 MPa force figures: this 100mm bore pushes 3927 N and pulls 3681 N, while the 80mm bore pushes 2513 N. Confirm your coil is AC220V with terminal entry before ordering. The default action retracts the rod when energized, but you can reposition the valve to extend on signal. Always size force within the 0.15-0.8 MPa valve range, never the 1.0 MPa cylinder body rating. Because the valve only routes air, add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve to hold a load. For this 500mm stroke, use external guides to prevent rod bending and side loads.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Force at 0.15–0.8 MPa
- ✓ Coil voltage matches panel
- ✓ Terminal vs grommet entry
- ✓ Retract- or extend-when-energised
- ✓ Load-holding → external rod lock
Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF100X500S-10A FAQ
It pushes 3927 N and pulls 3681 N at 0.5 MPa, reaching 6282 N at 0.8 MPa. The built-in valve is a 4M310-10 (3/8" port, Cv 1.68, 4 cycles/s max). The AC220V terminal coil is IP65. Size all force within the 0.15-0.8 MPa valve operating window.
No, the built-in valve only routes air and is not a lock. The rod drifts on air loss. Add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for load holding. You can also reposition the valve to extend-when-energised instead of the default retract action.
