About the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X540S
The AirTAC SE32X540S is a double-acting single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for compact automation, delivering a 402 N push at 0.5 MPa across its 540 mm stroke. Its square extruded aluminum barrel omits external tie rods, yielding a smooth, flush exterior that resists corrosion and simplifies tooling clearance. The built-in magnet enables direct position tracking using AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors.
Because this unit carries a 540 mm stroke on a 32 mm bore, the Ø12 mm hard-chrome piston rod operates with a 27 mm cushion length at both ends. You can field-tune these adjustable air cushions via a set screw to soften end-of-stroke impacts at speeds up to 800 mm/s. Note that this pneumatic cushioning only decelerates the piston near stroke end; it does not lock or hold the load if air pressure drops.

Where the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X540S Is Used
PCB Drill Bit Changer
Actuates a vertical carousel gate to swap micro-drills, utilizing the 540 mm stroke to clear the tool magazine while the 32 mm bore provides precise 402 N push at 0.5 MPa.
Small Parts Diverter Gate
Pivots a lightweight aluminum flap on a packaging line to sort rejected plastic caps, relying on the flush profile barrel for tight side-clearance and the -S magnet for DMSE electronic position confirmation.
Lab Sample Tray Ejector
Pushes loaded test tube racks out of a centrifuge loading bay, using the adjustable 27 mm end cushions to decelerate the 540 mm travel smoothly and prevent liquid spillage.
Is the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X540S the Right Cylinder?
Selecting the SE32X540S places you in the 32 mm bore class, yielding 402 N push and 345 N pull at 0.5 MPa. If your application requires less force, you must drop down to a smaller standard bore, but as 32 mm is the smallest ISO 15552 size in this series, stepping up is the only option: moving to the 40 mm bore increases your 0.5 MPa push to 628 N. This model includes the -S magnet for switch sensing and uses a PT1/8 port.
With a 540 mm stroke, the unsupported length of the Ø12 mm rod introduces a bending moment risk under heavy side loading. To prevent premature rod-bearing wear, incorporate an external linear guide to carry the load mass. This cylinder is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, serving as a drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 cylinders without altering your existing mounting footprint.
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 SE32X540S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the 32 mm bore provides 402 N of push and 345 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push increases to 563 N, with a maximum push capacity of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The operational speed range is 30-800 mm/s.
Yes, it is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, serving as a drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders. However, it does not hold its load if air is lost; the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end and is not a locking mechanism.
