About the Airtac SE50 Standard Cylinder SE50AX230S
The AirTAC SE50AX230S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered to deliver a 982 N push force at 0.5 MPa. It features a 50 mm bore, a 230 mm stroke, and a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (code A) specifically selected for corrosive or washdown environments. The square extruded aluminum barrel omits external tie rods, yielding a compact footprint that mounts flush against machine frames while resisting environmental degradation.
This model includes a built-in position magnet (code S) designed to integrate seamlessly with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors for precise end-of-stroke detection. Field-adjustable pneumatic cushioning at both ends allows technicians to tune the deceleration of the 20 mm rod, softening hard impacts when cycling at speeds up to 800 mm/s without relying on fixed rubber bumpers.

Where the Airtac SE50 Standard Cylinder SE50AX230S Is Used
Stainless Steel Pouch Forming
Drives the sealing jaw assembly on vertical form-fill-seal equipment, utilizing the 982 N push force and SUS420J2 rod to withstand daily washdown cycles in food packaging facilities.
Bottle Diverting Gate
Actuates a routing flap on a 230 mm stroke to shift plastic bottles between parallel conveyor lanes, relying on the DMSE electronic sensor for high-speed tracking confirmation.
PCB Router Clamping
Secures composite printed circuit board panels during routing operations, where the compact tie-rod-free extruded profile allows tight mounting within dense electronics manufacturing cells.
Is the Airtac SE50 Standard Cylinder SE50AX230S the Right Cylinder?
Selecting the SE50AX230S is appropriate when your application requires roughly 1000 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. If you need to scale down, the 40 mm bore variant provides a 628 N push at 0.5 MPa; stepping up to the 63 mm bore yields a significantly higher 1559 N push at 0.5 MPa. Because this configuration specifies a 230 mm stroke, the unsupported piston rod is subjected to increased bending moments under side loads, making an external guide rail essential to prevent premature rod-bearing wear.
As a standard ISO 15552 profile cylinder, this unit serves as a dimensionally interchangeable drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 cylinders, simplifying retrofits. It uses a PT1/4 port and standard mounting accessories. Note that the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end; it does not function as a locking device. If the machine loses air pressure, the cylinder will drift, requiring a BSE rod lock variant or external pilot-operated check valve to hold a load safely in place.
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 SE50 Standard Cylinder SE50AX230S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the SE50AX230S provides a 982 N push force and an 825 N pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 1374 N. The maximum push capacity is 200 kgf at 1.0 MPa, and the operational speed ranges from 30-800 mm/s.
Yes, it is dimensionally interchangeable with any standard ISO 15552 profile cylinder, sharing identical mounting interface dimensions and a PT1/4 port. However, it cannot hold a load unpowered; the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end and is not a brake. You would need an AirTAC BSE rod lock variant for secure position holding.
