Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF40X100S-06A
The AirTAC Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF40X100S-06A is a genuine double-acting profile-type cylinder with a Ø40mm bore, 100mm 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 SAUF40X100S-06A
The SAUF40X100S-06A is a double-acting profile cylinder with a built-in AirTAC 4M210-06 5/2 solenoid valve on the cap. One coil signal drives the rod, eliminating remote plumbing and saving a manifold slot. The extruded aluminum barrel is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore. This 40mm bore delivers 628N push and 528N pull at 0.5 MPa, operating within the valve's 0.15-0.8 MPa window. The cylinder port is 1/4".
The integrated valve provides 14 mm2 flow (Cv 0.78) at a 1/8" port, cycling up to 5 times per second. It uses an AC220V terminal entry coil rated IP65. This unit includes a piston magnet for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches. For sizing, the safe working load is roughly 377N (60% of the 0.5 MPa push), allowing a vertical lift of about 32kg 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 (Ø40mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 628 N | 528 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 880 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 SAUF40X100S-06A Is Used
Decentralized Clamping
Ideal for clamping stations on large machines where running individual lines to a central manifold is impractical, switching directly from one AC220V signal.
Inline Diverting
Mounts directly on conveyor frames to actuate diverters. The built-in 4M210 valve minimizes tubing complexity and speeds up installation.
Independent Tooling
Perfect for standalone pneumatic slides or small presses that require self-contained actuation without dedicating a valve island slot.
Is the Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF40X100S-06A the Right Choice?
Size by comparing neighbor bores: the 32mm bore yields 402N push at 0.5 MPa, while the 50mm bore yields 982N. This 40mm bore provides 628N push and 528N pull at 0.5 MPa. Confirm the AC220V terminal entry coil meets your supply. The rod retracts when energized by default but can be reconfigured to extend by repositioning the valve. Always size force within the 0.15-0.8 MPa valve range, not the 1.0 MPa cylinder body rating. The valve routes air and is not a lock; add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve to hold loads. For this 100mm stroke, side-load is minimal, but for strokes over 300mm, use a guide to prevent rod binding.
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 SAUF40X100S-06A FAQ
It delivers 628N push and 528N 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 valve's 0.15-0.8 MPa window.
Yes. The default action retracts the rod when energized, but you can reconfigure it to extend-when-energized simply by repositioning the built-in valve. This allows you to choose the fail-safe state for your application without extra parts.
