About the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X240S
The AirTAC SE32X240S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for compact pneumatics. Delivering 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it utilizes a square extruded aluminum barrel that eliminates external tie rods. This design not only prevents corrosion traps around the body but also allows for flush mounting against machine frames, saving valuable space in tight assemblies.
Equipped with a built-in magnet (-S), this model directly supports AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic position sensors for precise end-of-stroke detection. The integrated adjustable air cushioning at both ends allows technicians to fine-tune end-stop deceleration via a set screw, effectively softening impacts when cycling at speeds up to 800 mm/s.

Where the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X240S Is Used
Packaging Diverter Gates
Ideal for routing small cartons on packaging lines, where the 402 N push force easily deflects lightweight items and the CMSE sensor confirms gate position.
Lab Sample Ejection
Provides precise linear ejection of test tubes or vials, utilizing the 240 mm stroke and adjustable pneumatic cushioning to prevent fragile glass breakage at end stops.
PCB Handling Stops
Acts as a pneumatic stopper in electronics manufacturing, holding circuit boards in place for robotic pick-and-place arms without marring the surface.
Is the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X240S the Right Cylinder?
If your application requires less force, the neighboring SE25 bore is not standard, so stepping down means reducing pressure or exploring other series; however, stepping up to the SE40 bore provides a substantial 628 N push at 0.5 MPa for heavier loads. The SE32X240S provides 345 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, making it ideal for lighter clamping and gating tasks.
Since this cylinder features a 240 mm stroke, the unsupported piston rod is susceptible to bending under heavy lateral loads; always use an external guide rail to prevent side-load damage to the rod bearing. Remember that a standard SE cylinder will drift and cannot hold a load if air pressure is lost or the valve is centered—use a BSE rod lock variant if static holding is required. To replace an existing unit, match the 32 mm bore, 240 mm stroke, PT1/8 port, and ISO 15552 mounting interface for a direct drop-in retrofit.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for CMSE/DMSE sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (LB/FA/FB/CA/CB/CR/TC/FTC/TCM1/TCM2).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X240S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the SE32X240S provides 402 N of push force and 345 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 563 N. The absolute maximum push force is 82 kgf when operated at the maximum rated pressure of 1.0 MPa.
Yes, the SE32X240S is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 standards. You can drop it into existing foot, flange, or trunnion mounts designed for ISO 15552 profile cylinders, matching the 32mm bore, 240mm stroke, and PT1/8 porting.
