Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF32X500S-06A
The AirTAC Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF32X500S-06A is a genuine double-acting profile-type cylinder with a Ø32mm bore, 500mm 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 SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF32X500S-06A
The SAUF32X500S-06A is a double-acting profile cylinder with a built-in AirTAC 4M210 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 makes it shorter than an ISO 15552 unit of the same bore. This model includes a piston magnet for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
It features a 32mm bore, 1/8" cylinder port, and a 1/8" valve port with a Cv of 0.78. The AC220V terminal entry coil is IP65 rated and switches up to 5 cycles/sec. The cylinder body rates to 1.0 MPa, but the integrated valve limits operation to 0.15-0.8 MPa. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 402N, giving a safe working load of roughly 241N or a 20kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin.

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 (Ø32mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 402 N | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 563 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 SAUF32X500S-06A Is Used
Decentralized Packaging Station
Ideal for a remote packaging line where running individual air lines back to a main manifold is impractical, using the built-in valve for local control.
Long-Stroke Diverter Gate
Provides a 500mm reach to push products across a wide conveyor belt without needing a separate remote valve bank mounted nearby.
Vertical Lift Station
Handles light 20kg vertical lifts at 0.5 MPa, offering self-contained actuation that saves install time in large automated storage systems.
Is the Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF32X500S-06A the Right Choice?
Size by checking both neighbouring bores and the 0.5 MPa force: this 32mm bore pushes 402N and pulls 345N, while the next size up (40mm) pushes 628N. Confirm your coil is AC220V with terminal entry and PT threads. The rod retracts when energised by default, but you can reconfigure it to extend by repositioning the valve. Always size force within the 0.15-0.8 MPa valve window, never the 1.0 MPa cylinder body rating. The built-in valve routes air and is not a lock; add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve to hold a load. Because the 500mm stroke exceeds 300mm, use an external guide to prevent rod bending and side-load damage.
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 SAUF32X500S-06A FAQ
It generates 402N push and 345N pull at 0.5 MPa. The built-in valve is a 4M210-06 (1/8" port, Cv 0.78, 5 cycles/sec max). The coil is AC220V with terminal entry. Although the cylinder body rates to 1.0 MPa, the assembled unit must operate within the 0.15-0.8 MPa valve window.
By default the rod retracts when energised, but you can reconfigure it to extend by repositioning the valve. The valve only routes air; it is not a load lock. The piston will drift on air loss, so you must add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve to hold a load securely.
